An off-the-shelf workstation for translators / by Elliott Macklovitch. : Co28-1/46-1989E-PDF

The paper pays particular attention to the workstation's personal terminology component: the criteria that led us to select one particular package and the problems encountered in running that software in a windowing environment.

We also discuss plans for a more advanced workstation that will incorporate specialized machine translation modules as well as certain vocal functions"--Abstract.
