A Semantic Model for Integrated Content Management, Localisation and Language Technology Processing
A Semantic Model for Integrated Content Management, Localisation and Language Technology Processing Dominic Jones1, Alexander O’Connor1, Yalemisew M. Abgaz2, David Lewis1 1 & 2 Centre for Next Generation Localisation 1Knowledge and Data Engineering Group, 1School of Computer Science and Statistics, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland {Dominic.Jones, Alex.OConnor, Dave.Lewis}@scss.tcd.ie 2School of Computing, Dublin City University, Dublin, Ireland 2 [email protected] Abstract. Providers of products and services are faced with the dual challenge of supporting the languages and individual needs of the global customer while also accommodating the increasing relevance of user-generated content. As a result, the content and localisation industries must now evolve rapidly from manually processing predicable content which arrives in large jobs to the highly automated processing of streams of fast moving, heterogeneous and unpredictable content. This requires a new generation of digital content management technologies that combine the agile flow of content from developers to localisers and consumers with the data-driven language technologies needed to handle the volume of content required to feed the demands of global markets. Data-driven technologies such as statistical machine translation, cross-lingual information retrieval, sentiment analysis and automatic speech recognition, all rely on high quality training content, which in turn must be continually harvested based on the human quality judgments made across the end-to-end content processing flow. This paper presents the motivation, approach and initial semantic models of a collection of research demonstrators where they represent a part of, or a step towards, documenting in a semantic model the multi-lingual semantic web. -
ISO/TC46 (Information and Documentation) Liaison to IFLA
ISO/TC46 (Information and Documentation) liaison to IFLA Annual Report 2015 TC46 on Information and documentation has been leading efforts related to information management since 1947. Standards1 developed under ISO/TC46 facilitate access to knowledge and information and standardize automated tools, computer systems, and services relating to its major stakeholders of: libraries, publishing, documentation and information centres, archives, records management, museums, indexing and abstracting services, and information technology suppliers to these communities. TC46 has a unique role among ISO information-related committees in that it focuses on the whole lifecycle of information from its creation and identification, through delivery, management, measurement, and archiving, to final disposition. *** The following report summarizes activities of TC46, SC4, SC8 SC92 and their resolutions of the annual meetings3, in light of the key-concepts of interest to the IFLA community4. 1.

Technical Reference Manual for the Standardization of Geographical Names United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names
ST/ESA/STAT/SER.M/87 Department of Economic and Social Affairs Statistics Division Technical reference manual for the standardization of geographical names United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names United Nations New York, 2007 The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat is a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental spheres and national action. The Department works in three main interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information on which Member States of the United Nations draw to review common problems and to take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps build national capacities. NOTE The designations employed and the presentation of material in the present publication do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the Secretariat of the United Nations concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries. The term “country” as used in the text of this publication also refers, as appropriate, to territories or areas. Symbols of United Nations documents are composed of capital letters combined with figures. ST/ESA/STAT/SER.M/87 UNITED NATIONS PUBLICATION Sales No. -

The second edition appeared in 2003. Numerous changes occurred in geographical names in the six years since the previous list was published. New countries and new non-self-governing and autonomous territories appeared, some countries changed their names, other their capital or its name, the Polish names for several countries and their capitals also changed as did the recommended principles for the Romanization of several languages using non-Roman systems of writing.

Sin embargo, más atrás en la línea del tiempo, los egipcios, sumerios, chinos, etc., unificaban las teorías metafísicas con las ciencias básicas para dar cuenta de los fenómenos en todas las escalas desde lo micro hasta lo macro. -

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Knowledge organization systems (KOS) can use In addition, we relax some of the constraints assigned to the different types of hierarchical relations: broader generic ISO properties, namely the fact that hierarchical relationships (BTG), broader partitive (BTP), and broader instantial apply to SKOS concepts only. This allows us to apply them (BTI). The latest ISO standard on thesauri (ISO 25964) to the Getty Art and Architecture Thesaurus (AAT), where has formalized these relations in a corresponding OWL they are also used for non-concepts (facets, hierarchy names, ontology (De Smedt et al., ISO 25964 part 1: thesauri for guide terms).
