Following the success of the AMTA 2012 Workshop on Translation Post-Editing Technology and Practice, we are organizing WPTP2 (https://sites.google.com/site/mts2013wptp). Once again, this workshop will be an opportunity for post-editing practitioners and researchers to get together and openly discuss the weaknesses and strengths of existing technology, to properly and objectively assess post-editing effectiveness, to establish better practices, and propose tools and technological post-editing solutions that are built around the needs of users. 

This one-day workshop will be held during MT Summit XIV, in Nice (France), Sept. 2, 2013. The workshop will feature an invited speaker, oral presentations of original work, and a short poster and demo session. 

=============== 
Topics of interest: 
=============== 

The broad focus of WPTP1 was technologies and practices associated with post-editing. For WPTP2, we propose to place a greater emphasis on "technologies". We are particularly interested in attracting original papers on the following themes, but also welcome other ideas which touch on potential fruitful human-machine collaborations for translation: 

- Post-editing user interface design and evaluation 
- Tools for crowd and community post-editing 
- Automatic prediction of post-editing effort 
- Error-detection and error-correction for post-editing 
- Innovative uses of post-editor feedback 
- Innovative uses of MT data for post-editing 
- Integration of MT with translation memory and other CAT tools 
- Text pre- and post-processing for post-editing 
- Post-editing and mobile devices 
- Post-editing evaluation methodology and metrics 
- Collecting and sharing post-editing data 
- Best practices for post-editing 
- Training for post-editing

Demos:

We also invite one-page descriptions of interesting tools related to post-editing, including commercial products, in-house systems and open source software. Authors should be ready to present demos of the tools during the workshop. See Demo submission instructions below.
