  abstract = {The development of robots capable of
	 accepting instructions in terms of familiar concepts to the user is
	 still a challenge. For these robots to emerge it s essential the
	 development of natural language interfaces, since this is regarded as the
	 only interface acceptable for a machine which expected to have a
	 high level of interactivity with Man. Our group has been involved
	 for several years in the development of a mobile intelligent robot,
	 named Carl, designed having in mind such tasks as serving food in a
	 reception or acting as a host in an organization. The approach that has
	 been followed in the design of Carl is based on an explicit concern
	 with the integration of the major dimensions of intelligence, namely
