  • Abstract
    In a diagrammatic conversion iconic, verbal and graphic messages are spontaneously exchanged. If a computing system is to be used in the communication, it must be able to understand the conversants´ lexicon and language. The paper discusses the design of such a system. The system understands the visual messages exploiting existing image interpretation tools and different knowledge basis defined according to the different specific context in which the conversation takes place
