Subject: Proceedings: Machine Translation Conference
The Natural Language Specialist Group
of the
British Computer Society
announces the availability of the
Proceedings of the International Machine Translation Conference
'Machine Translation: Ten Years On'
held at Cranfield University
in 1994.
Editors: Douglas Clarke, Cranfield University, U.K., and Alfred Vella,
University of Luton, U.K.
ISBN: 1 871315 697, 322 pages.
These Proceedings are available from the British Computer Society as
described below.
They contain ...
o Wide range of forward-looking papers
o Fully indexed
o Bibliography of reference books on languages and linguistics
o Of interest to researchers, students, translators, interpreters
etc.
An international conference organised jointly by Cranfield University,
England, in conjunction with the Natural Language Translation Specialist
Group of the British Computer Society.
This conference marked the tenth anniversary of the first Cranfield
international conference on machine translation in 1984.
Some papers review the significant stages and developments in machine
translation (MT) in the years 1984-1994, others look ahead to the
years 1994-2004 and emphasise important trends and developments in MT,
particularly its increasing use in speech and dialogue.
In view of the wide range of MT researchers who contributed to this
conference and of the diversity of topics covered, these proceedings
will be of interest, not only to those currently working in MT, but
also to undergraduate and postgraduate students, translators and
interpreters, and indeed anyone who wishes to keep abreast of develop-
ments in MT.
The papers in these Proceedings cover a wide range of aspects including:
o Research and development
o Applications
o Views of 'human translators' on MT
o Views of users about MT
o Quality of MT
o Philosophy of approach
For further information about the Natural Language Translation
Specialist Group and for extensive reference to MT resources please
