Machine aids: a small user's reaction

Abstract

A technical survey of the kinds of equipment that may improve both the quality and quantity of a translator's work is followed by consideration of the new conceptions and attitudes imposed by such equipment. The importance of motivation and other psychological factors is discussed, and the need for greater attention by manufacturers to human factors is stressed. Finally, a plea is made for improved telecommunication facilities and media compatibility between systems of different makes.
