Technology has revolutionized the field of translation, bringing
drastic changes to the way translation is studied and done. 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.
