ABSTRACT:
When a user's request is entered it is then transmitted to a network interface unit which digitizes and stores the request. The digitized request and information about the user's network of devices is then transmitted from the network interface unit to a natural language server, preferably over the internet. The natural language server then processes the request and generates commands necessary to complete the request within the user's network of devices. These commands are then transmitted from the natural language server to the network interface unit. The network interface unit then transmits the commands to the appropriate devices within the network of devices. The devices within the network of devices then execute the received commands to complete the user's request.
