SDL International, provider of multilingual solutions offering scalable translation technology and services, has announced a technology-breaking advance
in the 'Globalization Management Systems' market (technology for the management of multilingual content).
The system offers both forms of translation technology - "Translation Memory" and "Real-time translation".
Translation Memory re-uses human translations, once captured in a database, when matched to new content. This reduces the cost of managing foreign-language websites and intranets substantially.
Real-time translation is the result of many years research into the software necessary to automate translation, offering an immediate understanding of the content being processed.
The new version includes the capacity to manage any format of content within a seamless translation process - dramatically reducing the overall timescales within which foreign language information can be posted online.
SDLWorkFlow technology, the result of substantial investment by SDL, is already in use in a variety of major international corporations, such as Sun Micro Systems, Morgan Stanley and William Hill, as well as being integrated with content management systems, such as Microsoft's Content Management Server 2003, Tridion R5 and Interwoven TeamSite.
Mark Lancaster, SDL's CEO, confirms: "The management of translated content has become a critical part of delivering and managing content for the international company, where substantial investment has been made in recent years into online processes. SDLWorkFlow 2003 is crucial as the final piece in the puzzle - it allows companies to capitalise on that investment and complete their support for their international revenues."
