Abstract :
A microprocessor system is designed that helps to spare considerable time in producing software for a speech synthesizer based on acoustic phonetics. The procedure consists of three basic operations: obtaining a detailed description of a given language; establishing the rules of description; compiling a synthesis program. The efficiency of the system has been proved experimentally.
