Research on translation tools

In this paper, the term "translation tools" means computer applications designed specifically to help with the translation of digital content. It includes applications to help translators (mainly translation memories, or TM), applications to help corporations and institutions have their content translated (translation management systems, content management systems), and applications to help computer users understand unfamiliar foreign content (machine translation, MT). While our present focus is on research issues in relation to TM, when required we will also deal with how translation management systems and MT impact on TM.
