 ====== IPAACA – Incremental processing architecture for artificial conversational agents ======
+This page describes the basic concepts underlying IPAACA. For a theoretical background have a look at the research papers that were foundational to IPAACA's design:
+  * Schlangen, D. & Skantze, G. (2009). A general, abstract model of incremental dialogue process- ing. In //Proceedings of the 12th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics,// pp. 710–718, Athens, Greece. [[http://www.aclweb.org/anthology/E/E09/E09-1081.pdf|PDF]]
+  * Schlangen, D. & Skantze, G. (2011). A general, abstract model of incremental dialogue processing. //Dialogue and Discourse,// 2, 83–111. doi:[[https://doi.org/10.5087/dad.2011.105|10.5087/dad.2011.105]], [[https://search.iczhiku.com/paper/SWkajux5ZBLernr2.pdf|PDF]]

-===== Internal information =====
+=== Windows ===
-[[dev:IpaacaNotes]] (internal wiki)
+There are Windows builds of the C++ version of IPAACA. Currently, two flavors exist:
+  * old API version, built for Visual Studio 2010, and using rsb0.10 from pre-built 'rsx' (no longer available from CI server in this version)
+    * Several Windows projects rely on this at the moment (2016-12), like DragonSpeech and EyeX
+  * new (JSON) API version, built for Visual Studio 2015 and using our own pre-built libs
+    * Contained dep versions (as of 2016-12): Boost 1_57, Protobuf 2.5, Spread 4.4, RSC/RSB 0.14 (static Boost linkage)
+    * Usage:
+      - Install Visual Studio 2015 (probably won't include / link using older VS versions)
+      - Create a repository folder somewhere (mine is Documents\Develop\repo in my home), and set the SOA_REPO_DIR environment variable for the current user to refer to it (via control panel).
+      - Unpack one of the following archives into that folder:
+        - 64-bit Release build (recommended): https://www.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/~ryaghoub/ipaaca-windows-complete-64bit.zip (about 88 MiB; Caveat 64 bit version: currently (2017-02), socket transport seems to be broken (but spread is OK))
+        - 32-bit Debug build: https://www.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/~ryaghoub/ipaaca-windows-complete-32bit.zip (about 150 MiB)
+      - The archive contains ipaaca, its dependencies, and a sample C++ Visual Studio 2015 project called "IpaacaWinConsoleTest" as well as a sample C# project called "IpaacaWinCSharpWindow". The C++ project can be used to glean the necessary variable settings, which are provided relative to the SOA_REPO_DIR environment variable. Refer to the rightclick->Properties of the .sln in VS2015 and check the Debugging, C++, and Linker tabs. Set the project to the correct build type (x64 Release for the first archive, x86 Debug for the second one).
