TRANSLATING AND THE COMPUTER 28 Conference
(16-17 November 2006, Kensington, London).
Sponsors: TILP, Alchemy Software Development Ltd.
Supported by: BCS, EAMT, IAMT and ITI

This conference focuses on the user's perspective of how
computers/software are used in translation. The conference series
attracts a wide audience which includes 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 and
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
