    <Paragraph position="0"> In this paper I have presented a model of dialogue structure in two layers, which processes the sequence of subdialogues and speech acts in task-oriented dialogues in order to select the most appropriate from the ambiguous parses returned by the Phoenix parser. The model structures dialogue in two levels of finite state machines, with the final goal of improving translation quality.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> A possible extension to the work here described would be to generalize the two-layer model to other.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="2"> less homogeneous domains. The use of statistical information in different parts of the processing, such as the arcs of the FSM, could enhance performance.</Paragraph>
