Dan Jurafsky, Becky Bates, Noak Coccaro, 
  Rachel Martin, Marie Meteer, Klaus Ries, Elizabeth Shriberg, Andreas Stolcke, 
  Paul Taylor, and Carol Van Ess-Dykema, `` 
   
  Automatic Detection of Discourse Structure for Speech Recognition and 
  Understanding'', IEEE Workshop on Speech Recognition and Understanding.
  Here are some 
  slides detailing their project.  And  this is their annotation manual.  I grabbed these documents from
  Dan Jurafsky's home page.
  Check there for the latest developments.
  
  
Barbara Di Eugenio, Pamela W. Jordan, Richmond H. Thomason, and Johanna D.
         Moore, ``Reconstructed Intentions in Collaborative Problem Solving 
                   Dialogues'',
  Presented at 
  
  AAAI Fall Symposium on Communicative Action in Humans and Machines,
  Boston, MA, November 1997 available at 
  
  the Coconut Project Publications page (their ACL 98 paper is
  available there too).
  This is their 
  annotation manual.  Another paper is,
  B. DiEugenio, J. D. Moore, and M. Paolucci, 
  
  ``Learning Features that Predict Cue Usage'',
  in ACL 97.

Mark Core and James Allen,
  ``
  Coding Dialogs with the DAMSL Annotation Scheme'',
  Presented at
  
  AAAI Fall Symposium on Communicative Action in Humans and Machines,
  Boston, MA, November 1997.
  
  This addendum to the workshop paper uses a different inter-annotator
  reliability calculation.  At this workshop, a coding exercise was performed as described here.
