Title: Future web-based translation environments
Presenter: Stefan Kreckwitz
For many years Web applications have found their way into the translation industry. These applications were predominantly limited to terminology systems and project portals. As is common for conventional Web applications, the user interaction was read-only or form-based. In the meantime, Web 2.0 appeared as a term for the new generation of Web applications. Apart from social aspects, Web 2.0 designates a combination of technologies, which can enable rich user interfaces and PC-equivalent interactivity.
Some manufacturers of translation software have recognized the potential of Web 2.0 and work on Web-based translation environments. The advantages of these solutions are promising. But at present Web-based translation environments are quite restricted in comparison to the market-leading Windows applications.
The talk is about the challenges and opportunities of prospective Web-based translation environments. Apart from the functional convergence to Windows-based counterparts, the talk addresses ideas like "software as a service" and the harnessing of collective intelligence.
