Software Localization for Internet Software: Issues and Methods ( Rosann Webb Collins ; IEEE Software Magazine 2002-03)
- - For Web sites to be usable for a global audience, those sites must be adapted to many local requirements. This paper examines key issues in such adaptation (termed localization), considers the costs and specific aspects of software that must be localized, and presents an approach for analyzing and documenting software localization. The paper is based on a review of relevant literature, meetings with localization industry representatives, and an ongoing participant observation in a global telehealth company. Examples from the company illustrate the localization issues and their possible outcomes or solutions.
Translation Technology Tries to Hurdle the Language Barrier ( Linda Dailey Paulson ; IEEE Computer Magazine 2001-09)
-
A Global Perspective on Web Site Usability ( Shirley A. Becker, Florence E. Mottay ; IEEE Software Magazine 2001-01)
- - Online business failures are increasing as customers turn away from unusable or unfriendly sites. From a global perspective, usability requires cultural sensitivity in language translation, along with the appropriate use of color, design, and animation.
Multicode: A Truly Multilingual Approach to Text Encoding ( Muhammad F. Mudawwar ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1997-04)
- - Unicode was designed to extend ASCII for encoding text in different languages, but it still has several important drawbacks. Multicode overcomes those drawbacks.
Beyond Language Translation: Crossing the Cultural Divide ( Kumiyo Nakakoji ; IEEE Software Magazine 1996-11)
- - Working in and designing for other cultures can lead to communication breakdowns. The author explores how this happens and suggests ways that we can use potentially problematic situations to our advantage.
An Interactive Support Tool for Writing Multilingual Manuals ( Cécile Paris, Keith Vander Linden ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1996-07)
- - Drafter is a prototype of a tool that would let technical writers produce high-quality multilingual manuals. Drafter would also automate some of their more tedious tasks.

Internationalizing Software with Concurrent Engineering ( Farshad Rafii, Sam Perkins ; IEEE Software Magazine 1995-09)
- - Today’s global markets and multinational networks demand the simultaneous release of applications in many languages. Concurrent engineering offers a solution to this challenge, if the benefits of a potential market can be successfully balanced against the risk of untried technologies. The authors present a framework of options for doing so.
Off-Line Arabic Character Recognition ( Habib Goraine, Mike Usher, Samir Al-Emami ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1992-07)
- - A personal computer-based Arabic character recognition system that performs three preprocessing stages sequentially, thinning, stroke segmentation, and sampling, is described. The eight-direction code used for stroke representation and classification, the character classification done at primary and secondary levels, and the contextual postprocessor used for error detection and correction are described. Experimental results obtained using samples of handwritten and typewritten Arabic words are presented.
Design of a Bitmapped Multilingual Workstation ( Richard F. Walters ; IEEE Computer Magazine 1990-02)
- - Previous work in multilingual support is reviewed. Research to date has involved four basic issues: character-set standardization, text input, internal storage and manipulation and display systems. Each of these areas is discussed. A workstation that supports many character sets in a windows environment and provides display and data manipulation of multiple character sets is also described.
