TRANSLATING AND THE COMPUTER 31 19-20 November 2009, London
There is still time to book your place on this year's exciting Conference! I am delighted to announce that the keynote speaker of the Conference is now Marco Trombetti of TRANSLATED. Marco is co-founder and CEO of TRANSLATED and oversees the use of technology to increase quality and reduce costs. Before founding TRANSLATED, Marco developed internet solutions for digital mapping companies and web information retrieval / data-mining tools. His presentation will be on his system that falls somewhere between traditional professional LSP and crowdsourcing.. Further details on his paper will appear on the Aslib Conference web site soon. The second paper on the 19th November will now be: Yours or Mine or What? The simple complexity of copyright of translations Abraham de Wolf, Lucy Software and Services, Germany The presentation will offer the audience a basic structure with which copyright issues can be identified and understood. The focus will be on the use of software for translations and addresses under what conditions who owns what, and who else might have rights of use aside from ownership rights. Copyright aspects of the use of free internet translation machines and collaborative translation platforms will also be looked at. And to round things up some basic recommendations for how to address copyright issues in contracts with customers, free lancers and employees will be given. This year, the programme includes two panel discussions: one on crowdsourcing and one on who owns Translation Memories!
