Abstract

At COLING80, we reported on an Interactive Translation System called ITS. We will discuss three problems in the design of the first version of ITS: (1) human factors, (2) the "all or nothing" syndrome, and (3) traditional centralized processing. We will also discuss a new version of ITS, which is now being programmed. This new version will hopefully overcome these problems by placing the translator in control, providing multiple levels of aid, and distributing the processing.
