taas workshop 2014, termwiki pro, uwe muegge & carl yao, csoft international
DESCRIPTION
A TaaS-based terminology management system, such as CSOFT’s TermWiki Pro, stores terminology information in a central location in the cloud, allowing all content stakeholders such as editors, validators, translators, and reviewers to access the same set of data. Any changes made to a term are immediately available for others to use in their own projects. Managing terms from inception to validation to translation and beyond typically involves many contributors – including terminology stakeholders on the client side. Just sending notifications to terminology stakeholders and keeping them all on the same page can take up a lot of project management time. This presentation illustrates how TermWiki, a system designed for web-enabled, collaborative terminology management, can be configured to take a term through the main stages of its development without manual intervention from project managers.TRANSCRIPT
