  • A Language Translation Service for Documentum
    A LANGUAGE TRANSLATION SERVICE FOR DOCUMENTUM M. Scott Roth Director of Technology Armedia, LL [email protected] Overview In our highly-connected and diverse society, the expectation that online content be available in multiple languages is greater today than ever before. Licensing agreements, rules and regulations, disclaimers, and forms on websites belonging to software vendors, credit card companies, insurers, and other service providers are expected to be available in users’ native languages. For international companies, this can mean managing and maintaining these documents in multiple languages. From a content management perspective, how do you produce, manage, and maintain all of these translations? What if the “source” document changes, how do these changes ripple through to the rest of the translations? What if one of the translations needs to be “tweaked”, how do you keep its version in synch with the source document? This article discusses a solution for creating and maintaining multiple translations of content in a Documentum repository. The solution uses the inherent content management capabilities of the Documentum Content Server to manage content, versions, and relationships among documents, and leverages the Content Server’s infrastructure (specifically, Service-based Objects, asynchronous jobs, and external database tables) to integrate with a translation services provider for the production of translations. The translation services provider used in this integration is Lingotek (http://www.lingotek.com). Lingotek offers a comprehensive RESTful API that integrates easily with Documentum to provide a seamless solution for the production and management of multilingual content. 2015 EMC Proven Professional Knowledge Sharing 2 Table of Contents 1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................

    LINGOTEK EBOOK 2018 How the connector integrates--its features, functions & capabilities-- is the key differentiator between translation technology providers. All translation connectors are not created equal. When exploring the multilingual plugins offered by the Language Services Provider (LSP) for your content management system, remember that it is not only about the platforms it supports, but how well it will integrate with your system. There are several connectors in the marketplace that can help integrate translation with your existing enterprise applications, but finding the best one can be difficult if you aren’t familiar with the features and functions that are available. To find the best fit for your organization, you need to know what to look for. This buyer’s guide reviews what connectors are, why you should use them, and the benefits of a tool that is quite simply, the future of translation. It will highlight the most important functions of connectors and the range of capabilities to help you make an informed decision on an integration that will automate and simplify translation now and well into the future.

  • Routledge Encyclopedia of Translation Technology
    THE ROUTLEDGE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF TRANSLATION TECHNOLOGY The Routledge Encyclopedia of Translation Technology provides a state-of-the art survey of the field of computer-assisted translation. It is the first definitive reference to provide a comprehensive overview of the general, regional and topical aspects of this increasingly significant area of study. The Encyclopedia is divided into three parts: • Part One presents general issues in translation technology, such as its history and development, translator training and various aspects of machine translation, including a valuable case study of its teaching at a major university. • Part Two discusses national and regional developments in translation technology, offering contributions covering the crucial territories of China, Canada, France, Hong Kong, Japan, South Africa, Taiwan, the Netherlands and Belgium, the United Kingdom and the United States. • Part Three evaluates specific matters in translation technology, with entries focused on subjects such as alignment, bitext, computational lexicography, corpus, editing, online translation, subtitling and technology and translation management systems. The Routledge Encyclopedia of Translation Technology draws on the expertise of over 50 contributors from around the world and an international panel of consultant editors to provide a selection of articles on the most pertinent topics in the discipline. All the articles are self-contained, extensively cross-referenced, and include useful and up-to-date references and information for further reading. It will be an invaluable reference work for anyone with a professional or academic interest in the subject. Chan Sin-wai is Professor in the Department of Translation at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. His research interests include computer translation, translation studies and lexicography.

    Master A Comparative Study of Two FOSS Localisation Tools : Pootle and Virtaal SIANO, Valeria Abstract This thesis is focused on the analysis and comparison of two popular FOSS localisation tools: Pootle, a web-based system, and Virtaal, a stand-alone tool. As FOSS programs are not always localised by professionals, the main purpose of our study was to determine which tool would be better for a novice translator who wants to start collaborating on a project. By following the EAGLES final report, we evaluated three main characteristics (functionality, efficiency, usability) together with their sub-characteristics (suitability, accuracy, time behaviour, understandability, learnability, operability, attractiveness) by the means of a feature inspection, a scenario test and a task-specific questionnaire. Since we would also like to have the point of view of active users of the two tools, we subsequently performed an online survey. Results showed that Virtaal and Pootle scores were similar in both our study and online survey. Consequently, we can argue that both tools are appropriate for beginners. Reference SIANO, Valeria.
