| Fascinating comments by Andrew Otwell on the subject of The sameness of interfaces. |
| The OS by definition must include an application programming interface, and hardware interfaces in the form of device drivers. |
| The database architecture is based on dataset components linked to data sources via provider and resolver interfaces. |
| Software converts text into voice so interfaces can be changed relatively easily, without re-recording lots of sound files. |
| These capabilities should be easy to configure and manage through graphical user interfaces and wizards. |
| The bad news is that it will take time and effort and an investment to retrofit existing systems with services-oriented interfaces. |
