		On this interpretation, while Winograd and Flores may wax a bit rhetorical at times, their point is that `in addition' to language-independent facts, and to a great degree that is usually recognized, the success of discourse depends on language-dependent facts.
		Winograd and Flores say: Most semantic theories in the rationalistic tradition provide formal grounds to support B, but a theory of language as human phenomenon needs to deal with the grounds for A's complaint as well---i.e., with the "infelicity" of B's reply.
		That is, Winograd and Flores show that factors `in addition to the language used and its meaning or meanings' are relevant to the felicity or infelicity of B's utterance.

	ACM: Ubiquity - Talking with Terry Winograd
		Terry Winograd is Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University, where he directs the program on human-computer interaction.
		WINOGRAD: When I started at Stanford, I was a consultant at PARC with their natural language group, which was led by Danny Bobrow, who had been my immediate predecessor in the AI lab at MIT.
		WINOGRAD: Wireless is a good factor in closing the divide because one of the things that the third world countries in particular are missing is the wired infrastructure.

	Terry Winograd [l]
		Winograd now sees a ‘high degree of commonality between the "generative"‘ and ‘"computational" paradigms’, and suggests ‘they may be seen as two variants of a single "cognitive paradigm", (LC 20).
		Winograd's presentation of formalisms and grammars resembles Pike's treatment of the physiology of utterance in two ways: its monumental thoroughness, and its uncertain relevance for essential qualities of human language (cf.5.44).
		Winograd and Flores now propose the ‘tradition’ be, above all in ‘current, re-examined and challenged as a source of understanding’, thinking about computers and their impact on society’ (UC 14, 26).

		In his talk on January 21, Professor Terry Winograd discussed some of the intricacies of human-computer interaction (HCI) and how important it is to "design the experience".
		Winograd also touched upon a technique called physical embedding that creates an environment where the computer is aware of the user in his surroundings and is used in visual gesture analyses.
		Winograd emphasized a component called transfer which tries to utilize the skills and knowledge the user has previously acquired from similar machines, and to build on that.

		Terry Winograd started his academic career in Artificial Intelligence, programming computers to interact with people as though they were other people.
		For the last ten years, Terry has collaborated with David Kelley in teaching a course that has become a prototype for the d.school way of teaching.
		For an engineering guy, Terry is surprisingly domestic, having equally and actively co-parented two wonderful daughters and enjoying the mundane pleasures of cooking and even grocery shopping (especially at the local farmers' markets).

		Winograd points out that most of the communication between components is done directly, and the monitor is called only at the beginning and end of the understanding process.
		Winograd's system parses the input sentence from left to right as it goes along, anticipating the syntactic structure of the portion yet to be considered.
		Winograd points out that since this is not a consequence of the basic deductive capacities or of the semantics, the system could be expanded so as to discuss genuinely universal statements.

	SHRDLU (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-15)
		The essential feature of Winograd's program, in which it differs radically from Joseph Weizenbaum's ELIZA, is the inclusion of a system of knowledge concerning the assumed universe of discourse, a system on which the program can draw in a reasoned fashion so as to make sense of the remarks to which it responds.
		Winograd's program has at least a partial understanding of "it," and does not assume that "it" must always refer to an object rather than an action.
		Winograd's interest is in the interpretation rather than the generation of language, and SHRDLU's capacity to analyze language far outstrips its capability of synthesis.

	Dialogue on Realism, Part I
		But Terry would probably say that people's common sense doesn't always agree and that all arguments are ultimately founded in some kind of instinctive feel for what's true and what's not.
		Now that gets into kind of deep problems in epistemology, and I think that's where the ultimate disagreement between Terry Winograd and me is, that we have different views about what can be known and how it's known, and what such knowledge comes down to.
		I think that's Terry's attitude, say, look, let's kind of get practical here, and see what actually determines our beliefs, and it will be things like a universe of discourse, and impingings on our sensory surfaces, and what's out there doing it, that's...

		In this thoughtful essay, “From Computing Machinery to Interaction Design,” published in Beyond Calculation: The Next Fifty Years of Computing (1997), Stanford Human-Computer Interaction professor Terry Winograd considers how computers and interfaces might evolve over the next 50 years.
		Many have envisioned a future populated by intelligent, even sentient computer-beings, created by us but independent of us.
		Winograd says this perspective is based on the false assumption that if we create machines capable of higher and higher levels of pure data-processing power, eventually all that number-crunching will somehow add up to artificial intelligence (AI).
