Embodied conversational agents (ECA) and speech-based humanmachine interfaces can together represent more advanced and more natural humanmachine interaction. Fusion of both topics is a challenging agenda in research and production spheres. The important goal of humanmachine interfaces is to provide content or functionality in the form of a dialog resembling face-to-face conversations. All natural interfaces strive to exploit and use different communication strategies that provide additional meaning to the content, whether they are humanmachine interfaces for controlling an application or different ECA-based humanmachine interfaces directly simulating face-to-face conversation.Coverbal Synchrony in Human-Machine Interaction presents state-of-the-art concepts of advanced environment-independent multimodal humanmachine interfaces that can be used in different contexts, ranging from simple multimodal web-browsers (for example, multimodal content reader) to more complex multimodal humanmachine interfaces for ambient intelligent environments (such as supportive environments for elderly and agent-guided household environments). They can also be used in different computing environmentsfrom pervasive computing to desktop environments. Within these concepts, the contributors discuss several communication strategies, used to provide different aspects of humanmachine interaction.
