A comparison of the network speech recognition and distributed speech recognition systems and their effect on speech enabling mobile devices

Over the past 10 years there has been an exponential increase in the number of mobile subscribers worldwide. Market research has shown that the number of mobile subscribers rose to 4.3 billion towards end of Q1 in 2009. The unprecedented development of the telecommunication industry over the last decade has brought about the need for ubiquitous access to a host of different information resources and services. Today, speech remains the best medium of communication between people and it is conceivable that speech enabling mobile devices will allow users who only have mobile devices, to access all the information which is now available over the world wide web.
