Machine translatability of computer system manuals / by John Lehrberger.: Co28-1/134-1987E-PDF

"The purpose of this study is to examine the linguistic complexity of certain texts currently translated at the Translation Bureau (Government of Canada) with respect to their "translatability by computer." The texts consist of descriptions of particular computer systems, their installation and their use. The aim is to determine, on the basis of a sampling of such texts, the feasibility of translating these documents by MT systems employing current technology; speculation about future developments that may overcome today's outstanding linguistic obstacles is not taken into account here"--Introduction, page 1.
