This report outlines a machine translation system whose linguistic component is based on principles of Government and Binding. A "universal grammar" is defined, together with pal-ameters of variation for specific languages. The system, written in Prolog, parses, generates, and translates between English and Spanish (both directions).

This paper presentsMetaTrans, a meta-search engine for online dictionaries. With this software, users are able to find translations in a number of online dictionaries simultaneously. The MetaTrans features a web interface which is easy to use. The modular design of the tool enables adding support for more online dictionaries with minimal effort. MetaTrans also utilizes information from text cor...

An Android mobile visual text translator is proposed and developed. The translator is able to extract text from images and perform in situ translation. Our app can automatically recognize texts in simple plain images such as book, sign, and map and overlays the translated text on top of the original one, while preserving information such as location, color, font size, etc. This is often needed ...

Better programming productivity may be obtained by choosing suitable programming paradigms. For development of complex software systems, multiparadigm programming would usually be appropriate. However, its use may be hindered by a lack of languages and programming support tools. As this paper argues, multiparadigm programming may be supported by translators that convert programs written in one ...

Rule markup languages are the vehicle for using rules on the Web and other distributed systems. They allow deploying, executing, publishing and communicating rules in a network. The Object Management Group (OMG) standardized the Decision Modelling and Notation (DMN). Decision tables describe the business logic of a decision making process. We form a bridge by providing a translation framework t...

It is indeed an honour to be a part of this International Conference on Computer Aided Translation. As I am not a linguist, but an Information Scientist, my address presumes that we accept the established machine translation theories and practices as true and correct, and that we agree, in principle with the concept, practicality and cost effectiveness of its application. My presentation will f...

We describe formal steps in the design of iState, a tool for translating statecharts into programming languages. Currently iState generates code in either Pascal, Java, or the Abstract Machine Notation of the B method. The translation proceeds in several phases. The focus of this paper is the formal description of the intermediate representations, for which we use class diagrams together with t...

In this work, many ways of communications are used between human and computer, while using gesture is considered to be one of the most natural way in a virtual reality system. Because of its intuitiveness and its capability of helping the hearing impaired or speaking impaired, we develop a gesture recognition system. The Hand Talk glove is a normal, cloth driving glove fitted with flex sensors....
