Machine aids for translators: a review
A. D. Stiegler · Aslib Journal of Information Management · 1981
Since translating is an office activity which, like other office activities, consists primarily of processing text, it is instructive to examine the reasons for automating text production. Most of these reasons will be equally applicable to the production of translated texts. We shall then investigate the current developments in machines and micro‐chip technology which are applicable to translation. These will include voice recognition and response and optical character recognition equipment amongst others.
