Appel: TRANSLATING AND THE COMPUTER

[alexis nasr]

23rd Annual Conference and Exhibition:

TRANSLATING AND THE COMPUTER

29-30 November 2001

One Great George Street, London SW1

Supported by: IAMT, EAMT, BCS and ITI

This conference is one of the few international events which focuses
on the user aspects of translation software and as such has been
particularly beneficial to a very wide audience including translators,
business managers, researchers and language experts. Once again, this
year the conference will address the latest developments in
translation (and translation-related) software.  It will address the
needs of the following conference attendees:

- industry

- public administration

- agencies

- freelancers

- development

This call for papers invites abstracts of papers to be presented at
the conference.  The papers (and the presentations) should focus on
the user aspects of translation or translation-related software rather
than on theoretical issues.  Presentations accompanied by
demonstrations are especially welcome.

TOPICS

The range of topics includes (but is not limited to)

-         use of MT systems

-         machine-aided translation and translation aids

-         controlled languages and their use in MT

-         case studies of technology-based solutions

Internet
