ABSTRACT
We have defined the framework of a universal format for the continuous logging of augmentative communication. This format is flexible and powerful enough to satisfy the needs of researchers, clinicians, care-givers, and end-users. At the same time, it provides compatibility with simpler formats such as that used by the LAM. When combined with the ACQUA package for logfile analysis, this standard promises to open new possibilities for the quantitative assessment of AAC technologies. These empirical studies will in turn serve to guide future advancements and to enhance the communication experience for users of current technologies.
