The dialog system would support some pattern of conversation with a human partner. The paper describes human conversation, discusses available conversation model(s) in human conversation and bespeak the value of conversation. It emphasizes the need for interaction and highlights dialog systems point of departure from achieving human-like conversation. It then suggests inclusion of appropriate conversation model(s) in the design of dialog systems, to bring forth a desired conversational behaviour (pattern), with specific bias to task oriented dialog systems.
