Net.Speech: desktop audio comes to the net

ABSTRACT

In the 1940s, the first research computers worked on numeric data. A few years later, the UNIVAC, was designed for both numeric and alphanumeric data. Over time, technology advances have made other data types economically feasible—text, images, sound, and video.
