Translating and the Computer – 36, London, 27/28 November 2014

Translating and the Computer attracts a unique amalgam of researchers,
developers and users. It brings together academics involved in language
technology research and in teaching translation and terminology with
those who develop and market tools for language transformation and both
of these groups with users: translators, terminologists, interpreters,
and voice-over specialists, whether freelancers or working in
translation departments of large organisations such as those of the
European Parliament, European courts and the European Patent Office, the
United Nations family, international companies and other organisations,
and Language Services Providers (LSPs), large and small.

First the Computer, then the Internet and more recently the Cloud, are
changing and remodelling expectations and processes in the Language and
Localization industries. These changes are accompanied by new
requirements for standards and interoperability. The digital age is
modifying the concept of text and quality. Content is a key item
together with strings, chunks, segments and words.

In its 36th session Translating and the Computer has moved from ASLIB to
ASLING. The conference often referred to as the “ASLIB Conference” is
now the ASLING Translating and the Computer Conference.

ASLING is working hard to ensure that this conference remains a key date
in your calendar to help you keep in touch. To do this we need the
support and contributions of all those who are interested in sharing
their knowledge and ideas on the latest developments in an extremely
stimulating sector, and equally interested in hearing other
contributions. If you, or one of your colleagues, have something
important to announce or discuss, we urge you to consider presenting a
paper at this conference.

Abstracts must be submitted using the START system at the following
address:https://www.softconf.com/e/tc2014 .


The deadline for submissions is extended to July 14th; authors will be
notified of acceptance by August 7th.
