6 Concluding Remarks
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> This paper proposed ISSS (incremental significant-utterance-sequence search), an integrated incremental parsing and discourse processing method that enables both the understanding of unsegmented user utterances and real-time responses. This paper also reported an experimental result which suggested that ISSS is effective. It is also worthwhile mentioning that using ISSS enables building spoken dialogue systems with less effort because it is possible to define significant utterances without considering where pauses might appear.</Paragraph>
