We strongly believe that their cutting-edge translation management technology - namely the translation memory and the terminology management tools - will appeal to many of our customers who wish to streamline their localization process.
It includes a translation memory and a terminology system for centralised management and maintenance of language data, as well as powerful workflow components for controlling and processing internal and external translation jobs allowing all parties involved in the localisation process to be seamlessly integrated.
For example, while all translations during the linguistic validation stage must be done from scratch and not delineate from the concept definitions as characterized by the developer, other parts of the clinical trial process benefit from translation memory (TM) technology, which can reduce costs and increase efficiencies.
These companies typically provide a mix of tools to automate elements of the translation - notably translation memory and terminology management - but also for managing the processes associated with human translation - all with the aim of taking cost out of the equation and minimising error.
Software is becoming much more accurate as it combines the separate rules engine, translation memory, and statistical technique algorithms that have been used separately hitherto to support translation services.
XML Int l is working on integrating the XTM Suite tools with this CMS to provide its users access to powerful translation memory tools directly within the system.
The new solution is said to offer instant translation of communications using plug-ins for Microsoft Office applications and chat; instant translation of web pages; integration of automated translation with translation memory in the SDL Trados translation productivity suite; integration of automated translation in SDL Translation Management System (SDL TMS), a translation management application; the ability to use automated translation integrated with human post-editing skills to provide a the high-quality translation service - SDL Knowledge-based Translation System (SDL KbTS) - as well as integration of automated translation with many business applications through documented APIs.
