Computer science alone cannot solve all of the inevitable problems of language modelling which confront it. The usual practice is to take the end- user's point of view into account and in doing so we see that it is necessary to adapt the natural computer language. This can be done by turning towards linguistic and psycholinguistic technologies for help. For example, let us examine the role and aims of psycholinguistic technologies - to improve the impact of referencing conditions on the man/ machine interface and on telecommunications. We can see that these referencing conditions, though very complex, mean that the relationship between man and machine is no longer just a series of codes being sent between signals and objects. All of the deictic indicators need to be systematically identified in order to facilitate and optimise the reciprocal process of adaptation between users and machines. This problem is not an easy one to resolve. For this reason one hopes that, even before the idea of the software is conceived, there will be real interaction and collaboration between the specialisms of computer science, language science and, more generally, social science.
