To an average user, technology is simply about clicking buttons and storing data. What we need to do is to look beyond a system?s interface to see what is at work and what should be done to make it work more efficiently. This book is both macroscopic and microscopic in approach: macroscopic as it adopts a holistic orientation when outlining the development of translation technology in the last forty years, organizing concepts in a coherent and logical way with a theoretical framework, and predicting what is to come in the years ahead; microscopic as it examines in detail the five stages of technology-oriented translation procedure and the strengths and weaknesses of the free and paid systems available to users. The Future of Translation Technology studies, among other issues: The Development of Translation Technology; Major Concepts in Computer-aided Translation; Functions in Computer-aided Translation Systems; A Theoretical Framework for Computer-Aided Translation Studies; The Future of Translation Technology. This book is an essential read for scholars and researchers of translational studies and computational linguistics, and a guide to system users and professionals. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in translation technology ;$v1. 606 $aTranslating and interpreting$xTechnological innovations 615 0$aTranslating and interpreting$xTechnological innovations. 676 $a418.020285 676 $a418.020285 700 $aChan$b Sin-wai.$0972348 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148740703321 996 $aThe future of translation technology$92210893 997 $aUNINA
