A system and method for translating data from a source language to a target language is provided wherein machine generated target translation of a source sentence is compared to a database of human generated target sentences. If a matching human generated target sentence is found, the human generated target sentence may be used instead of the machine generated sentence, since the human generated target sentence is more likely to be a well-formed sentence than the machine generated sentence. The system and method does not rely on a translation memory containing pairs of sentences in both source and target languages, and minimizes the reliance on a human translator to correct a translation generated by machine translation.

E-services translation utilizing machine translation and translation memory

A globalization management system for managing resources of multiple interrelated data sources corresponding to a plurality of sites through a communications network is provided. The system includes a plurality of target application interfaces respectively coupled to the interrelated data sources through the network. Each interface includes systems for converting a protocol of the respective data source to a predetermined protocol, and the predetermined protocol to the protocol of the respective data source. The system further includes a global management engine coupled to the plurality of target application interfaces. The engine includes a site-to-site relationship manager, a system for reading current content data from the interrelated data sources, a system for comparing the current content data with prior content data, and a project manager for transferring the data identified as a content change to at least one subscriber site.

Globalization management system and method therefor

A globalization management system for managing resources of multiple interrelated data sources corresponding to a plurality of sites accessed through a communications network is provided. The system includes a plurality of target application interfaces respectively coupled to the interrelated data sources through the network. Each interface includes systems for converting a protocol of the respective data source to a predetermined protocol, and the predetermined protocol to the protocol of the respective data source. The system further includes a global management engine coupled to the plurality of target application interfaces. The engine includes a site-to-site relationship manager, a system for reading current content data from the interrelated data sources, a system for comparing the current content data with prior content data, and a project manager for transferring the data identified as a content change to at least one of the interrelated data sources that has been identified as a subscriber site.

A globalization management system () for managing resources of multiple interrelated data sources () corresponding to a plurality of sites () accessed through a communications network () is provided. The globalization management system () includes a plurality of target application interfaces () respectively coupled to the interrelated data sources through the communications network. Each target application interface () includes systems () for converting a protocol of the respective data source to a predetermined protocol, and the predetermined protocol to the protocol of the respective data source. The globalization management system () further includes a global management engine () coupled to the plurality of target application interfaces (). The global management engine () includes a site-to-site relationship manager, a system for reading data representing current content from the interrelated data sources, a system for comparing the data representing current content with data representing prior content, and a project manager for transferring the data identified as a content change to at least one of the interrelated data sources that has been identified as a subscriber site.

A portal for translating data is provided wherein users upload text to be translated. The text may be in the form of Web pages, in the form of hypertext mark-up language (HTML) files, or other formats. The portal at least partially translates the data and facilitates the selection of a vendor or vendors to complete the translation process. The portal makes use of a database containing previously completed translations, which database is utilized to at least partially translate new requests for translations, and thereby reduces the workload of the vendors selected to complete the process.
