This document provides guidance on multilingual websites, including best practices for strings with placeholders, resource files, language selection, politically correct terminology, translation tools, file formats, SEO, and hiring a web developer. Key recommendations include always putting strings in a separate resource file, using a globe or map icon for language selection in the native language, considering all regions and cultures, and using XLIFF or TMX as translation file formats.

MT is useful, and it gets better and more useful when it is customized to the terminology and style of the documents to be translated. But it is extra work, not much, but extra work. In this talk you’ll get an overview of MT domain customization, its benefits, pitfalls, and conditions for making it work, as well as an overview of the actual work and helpful vs. not so helpful training documents. The theory of MT. Introduction to MT: short history, the pros and cons of different techniques. Statistical MT versus rule-based MT and what the brand new model-based MT can offer, as well as the hybridization and the challenges and possible breakthroughs.

Developing software often requires using a number of tools and languages. In embedded software, for example, it is common to use C and its IDE, Matlab/Simulink, a number of custom XML files, a requirements management tool such as DOORS and possibly a UML tool and a variant management tool. The integration of such a zoo of tools is often a major source of (accidental) complexity in development projects. Contrast that with the "good old days" when everything was text files and command line executables running on the unix shell. This approach had two important properties: the infrastructure was extremely generic (unix shell, pipes, text editors) and the actual contents were easily extensible and composable (new text file formats/languages and new command line tools); a productive environment for a given project or domain could easily be built from the generic infrastructure plus a few custom extensions. In this talk I want to propose that creating (domain-specific) development environments based on language workbenches results in many of the same advantages that we all valued in the unix shell-world. A language workbench is an extremely generic infrastructure that is easily extensible with new languages. It is easy to create domain-specific development tools that can address different aspects of the system with suitable abstractions, but are nonetheless very well integrated in terms of semantics and tooling.

Today’s web and mobile app localization industry relies on numerous standards, libraries and file formats to facilitate the exchange between developers and translators. While some formats are somewhat sophisticated, others lack even the most fundamental features, like pluralization and contextualization. And most can’t offer support for more advanced localization features, like language cases. The most common formats used today include Gettext PO, Android XML, YAML, .Net RESX, iOS Strings. Those standards are typically packaged with popular frameworks and in some cases leave the developer with no choice but to use them. A typical developer today works with many frameworks - for instance a Rails backend app (YAML) with Ember front end (i18n JS) and iOS mobile app (Strings). Since all standards have distinct syntax - in many cases translations cannot be shared across applications. Translation Markup Language (TML) aims to solve both these problems by introducing a powerful extensible cross-platform syntax that offers support for pluralization, language contextualization, language cases, reusable decorators and much more. TML libraries are available for all major web and mobile platforms. TML allows translators to do in-context translations - where they can translate right from within the apps. TML libraries also eliminate the need for developers to ever deal with the resource files, as all extractions and translation substitution is done realtime and the resource files are only used as a transport between the apps and the Translation Exchange platform. Translation Exchange stores all translations in Universal Translation Memory (UTM), a graph database which stores all translations with their context, tone, rank and other attributes for accurate matching. This allows translations to be shared across all apps in the Translation Exchange Network. The translation memories of each app are extracted from the UTM graph and are managed by their individual localization teams. During this presentation we will look at some of the features of TML and how it can be used to quickly translate an app into a number of language using in-context translation tools. We will also look at how the data is stored and shared across applications using UTM.

Modeling in general is of course different from programming (think: climate models). However, when we consider the role of models in the context of “model-driven”, i.e., when they are used to automati- cally construct software, it is much less clear that modeling is different from programming. In this paper, I argue that the two are conceptually indistinguishable, even though in practice they traditionally emphasize different aspects of the (conceptually indistinguishable) common approach. The paper discusses and illustrates language-oriented programming, the approach to {modeling| programming} we have successfully used over the last 7 years to build a range of innovative systems in domains such as insurance, healthcare, tax, engineering and consumer electronics. It relies on domain-specific languages, modular language extension, mixed notations, and in particular, the Jetbrains MPS language workbench.

With more memory available, system performance of three Dell devices increased, which can translate to a better user experience Conclusion When your system has plenty of RAM to meet your needs, you can efficiently access the applications and data you need to finish projects and to-do lists without sacrificing time and focus. Our test results show that with more memory available, three Dell PCs delivered better performance and took less time to complete the Procyon Office Productivity benchmark. These advantages translate to users being able to complete workflows more quickly and multitask more easily. Whether you need the mobility of the Latitude 5440, the creative capabilities of the Precision 3470, or the high performance of the OptiPlex Tower Plus 7010, configuring your system with more RAM can help keep processes running smoothly, enabling you to do more without compromising performance.

Created by Mozilla Research in 2012 and now part of Linux Foundation Europe, the Servo project is an experimental rendering engine written in Rust. It combines memory safety and concurrency to create an independent, modular, and embeddable rendering engine that adheres to web standards. Stewardship of Servo moved from Mozilla Research to the Linux Foundation in 2020, where its mission remains unchanged. After some slow years, in 2023 there has been renewed activity on the project, with a roadmap now focused on improving the engine’s CSS 2 conformance, exploring Android support, and making Servo a practical embeddable rendering engine. In this presentation, Rakhi Sharma reviews the status of the project, our recent developments in 2023, our collaboration with Tauri to make Servo an easy-to-use embeddable rendering engine, and our plans for the future to make Servo an alternative web rendering engine for the embedded devices industry.

Enterprise Knowledge’s Urmi Majumder, Principal Data Architecture Consultant, and Fernando Aguilar Islas, Senior Data Science Consultant, presented "Driving Behavioral Change for Information Management through Data-Driven Green Strategy" on March 27, 2024 at Enterprise Data World (EDW) in Orlando, Florida. In this presentation, Urmi and Fernando discussed a case study describing how the information management division in a large supply chain organization drove user behavior change through awareness of the carbon footprint of their duplicated and near-duplicated content, identified via advanced data analytics. Check out their presentation to gain valuable perspectives on utilizing data-driven strategies to influence positive behavioral shifts and support sustainability initiatives within your organization. In this session, participants gained answers to the following questions: - What is a Green Information Management (IM) Strategy, and why should you have one? - How can Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) support your Green IM Strategy through content deduplication? - How can an organization use insights into their data to influence employee behavior for IM? - How can you reap additional benefits from content reduction that go beyond Green IM?
