>The annual conference "Translating and the Computer" has been
>an important forum for Machine Translation and Translation Aids
>users over the past 20 years. The conference is one of the few
>international events which focuses on the user aspects of translation
>software and as such has been particularly beneficial to a very wide
>audience including translators, business managers, researchers and
>language experts.
>
>Against the background of an increasingly multilingual society and
>the all-encompassing impact of information technology, this year's
>conference will address the latest developments in translation (and
>translation-related) software.
>
>This call for papers invites abstracts of papers to be presented
>at the conference. The papers (and the presentations) should focus on
>the user aspects of translation or translation-related software rather
>than on research and development issues. Presentations accompanied by
>demonstrations are especially welcome.
