Translating and the Computer 33 Conference - Call for Papers

The Hatton, London, 17th & 18th November 2011

This event brings together a diverse group of delegates, to gain new
insights and brainstorm ideas on the use of information technology for
translation. It covers the following areas:

		*	language resources exchange 
		*	tools, technologies and standards 
		*	web-based collaboration models and tools 
		*	translation process control. 

This call for papers invites you to submit abstracts of papers to be
presented at the Conference. Talks should be slanted towards a
practitioner's point of view, even when dealing with the latest product
developments and theoretical research. The papers (and the
presentations) should focus on the user aspects of translation or
translation-related software. Presentations accompanied by
demonstrations are especially welcome. The Conference is a meeting point
for translation professionals from: 

		*	large international and multilateral
institutions, such as those of the European Union and the United Nations
System 
		*	translation agencies across the world 
		*	professional translators 
		*	tools and technology developers 
		*	researchers and academics.
