Zusammenfassung:	Abstract: "Formal descriptions of human-computer interaction can roughly be classified as either user-oriented (e.g. simulation models of user behavior) or system-oriented (e.g. technical specifications of interface components). At present, an explicit conceptualization of tasks is only provided by user-oriented approaches. On the other hand, there are obvious applications of making tasks explicit on the side of the system, e.g. automatic protocolling on the task level, intelligent tutoring, context dependent help, or macro generation The method of task-oriented parsing is introduced as a basic technique in order to realize applications of this type. In contrast to solutions which have emerged from the field of artificial intelligence, this approach is based upon a notion of tasks compatible with current user-oriented models like task-action grammars. Task-oriented parsing essentially inverts the process of task-action mapping as realized by several psychologically motivated approaches to modeling human-computer interaction. On the practical side, it is shown how task-oriented parsing as well as task-action mapping can be achieved with one bidirectional Prolog program.
