archiveCall for Commercial User Presentations

The Commercial User program track will focus on how MT is being used to meet business needs such as just-in-time localization of critical information, provision of technical support information, or translation of user generated and community content. Submissions should focus on the use of MT in a business setting and how it is integrated with other technologies to support business goals.

Topics

Potential topics include (but are not limited to):

  • Use of MT to provide localization of data-driven, dynamic, or user-specific information
  • Use of MT to reduce localization time and/or cost
  • Ways in which MT can be used to increase the scope of globalization projects
  • Integrating MT and human translation
  • Managing change when implementing MT systems

What to submit

Ideal presentations will be case studies describing new or ongoing deployments. Case studies may focus on one or more of: project justification, ROI and other cost/benefit analyses, evaluation and technology selection, change management, level of automation, and future plans and technology wish lists. Submissions should be 100-200 word summaries and may be sent directly in e-mail or as attachments in RTF format. Presenters will be encouraged to provide final presentations for inclusion in the proceedings and conference website.

How to submit

Send submissions and questions to the MT Summit Conference Chair, Laurie Gerber at lgerber@amtaweb.org
