The localization industry has never been affected quite the same way as many other sectors, but now that A other sectors begin to tentatively look up the economic curve towards prosperity, we may relax just a bit more also. This eighth annual resource directory and index allows industry professionals and those wanting to expand business access to language-industry companies around the globe. Following tradition, the 2010 Resource Directory (blue tabs) begins this issue, listing compa- nies providing services in a variety of specialties and formats: from language-related technol- ogy to recruitment; from locale-specifi c localization to educational resources; from interpreting to marketing. Next come the editorial pages (red tabs) on timeless localization practice. Henk Boxma enumerates the real costs of quality software translations, and Kevin Fountoukidis offers tips on people-centric company management. The Editorial Index 2009 (gold tabs) provides a helpful reference for MultiLingual issues 101- 108, by author, title, topic and so on, all arranged alphabetically.

Andres Daniel PEREZ arXiv:2004.01021v1 [hep-ph] 2 Apr 2020 Director de Tesis: Dr. Daniel Elbio LOPEZ-Fogliani Consejero de Estudios: Dr. Claudio M. SIMEONE Lugar de Trabajo: Instituto de Física de Buenos Aires, UBA-CONICET, Departamento de Física, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires, 2020 Resumen Dilucidar la composición de la materia oscura es uno de los temas abiertos más importantes en la fenomenología de partículas y astropartículas. Para ello, es necesario contar con un marco teórico de trabajo, y poder contrastar los resultados con experimentos capaces de detectar una señal proveniente de la materia oscura. Con respecto al marco teórico, los modelos supersimétricos se encuentran muy bien motivados y ofrecen candidatos viables a materia oscura. Por consiguiente, el compañero supersimétrico del gravitón, conocido como gravitino, surge como un candidato natural ya que solo es necesario asumir la existencia de gravedad en un contexto supersimétrico. En el marco de las extensiones supersimétricas mínimas del modelo estándar de partículas fundamentales, el ‘mu-from-nu supersymmetric standard model’, µνSSM, es capaz de reproducir toda la fenomenología conocida, incluyendo la masa y ángulos de mezcla de los neutrinos, dando además la posibilidad de encontrar señales de nueva física en un futuro cercano. Trabajando en el modelo mencionado, se estudió la detección en experimentos como Fermi– LAT de señales de rayos gamma provenientes del decaimiento del gravitino como materia oscura.

One such subject is the translation of video game achievements, which currently remains completely unstudied. It is the purpose of this thesis to fix this research gap to the extent it is able. Because of the lack of research on the subject in Translation Studies, much of the background of this thesis comes from the domains of Video Game Studies and gamification research. While achievements are a particularly popular topic of research in gamification, translation has not been taken into account in any of that research. This thesis aims to examine features of achievement translation by comparing the source and target achievements of the games The Long Dark and Spyro the Dragon and classifying the translation strategies used in them.

  • María Fernández-Parra* the Workflow of Computer-Assisted Translation
    1 María Fernández-Parra* The Workfl ow of Computer-Assisted Translation Tools in Specialised Translation 1. Introduction Since the wide availability of computers, the work profi le of the professional translator has radi- cally changed. Translators no longer work in isolation relying on a typewriter and a pile of books as their only aids. However, the goal of a totally independent translating machine producing high quality output has not been achieved either, and may never be achieved. It would be practical- ly unthinkable for translators nowadays to work without a computer, but integrating computers into the translation workplace does not mean replacing human translators altogether. The term computer-assisted translation (henceforth CAT) refers to the integration of computers into the workplace, whereas the term machine translation (MT) refers to fully automating the translation process. The workfl ow described here is that of CAT, but some differences and similarities with MT are also pointed out as appropriate. 1.1. Aims The fi rst aim of this paper is to explain in simple terms what is meant by the term computer-assist- ed translation and how this type of translation differs from other types of computer-based transla- tion. This is broadly discussed in section 2 below. The second aim of this paper is to raise aware- ness of the new working methods of translators of specialised texts by describing a simplifi ed but typical workfl ow in the specialised translation scenario using CAT tools, in section 3 below. In other words, I aim to describe what computers already can do at present.
