In most information systems, databases are accessed and manipulated typically through systems developed to tailor-fit the company's needs. The usual problem in these cases is the limitation on data accessibility because the users are constrained to the forms created for the system. Another way of accessing the database is through Structured Query Language (SQL), a language that is not familiar to end users, thus still limiting the access to the data. Natural Language Database Interfaces were developed to address limited database accessibility for end users. This paper presents AlLaDIn, a web-based natural language interface to the Community-Based Monitoring System of a city in the Philippines. © 2008 by Krissanne Kaye Garcia, Ma.
