A Brief History
大会历史
In 2003 Ulrich Henes contacted Donna Parrish and suggested they hold an event for the localization industry…
2003年，Ulrich Henes联系了Donna Parrish，建议联合举办一场本地化行业会议…
The reasoning was sound: Ulrich founded The Localization Institute and Donna is publisher of MultiLingual magazine. Together they had strong interests in seeing the industry thrive, but neither had an agenda to sell at a conference. So, they could create an event where people could network and learn, with old business solidified and new business created.
办会缘起：Ulrich是本地化学院的创始人，Donna是《多语言》杂志的发行人。两位对本地化行业的未来寄予厚望，但当时由于没有可汇报的内容，于是发起会议，为业内同仁提供互相学习、结交伙伴的平台，旨在巩固已有商业基础，并寻求新合作。
With an emphasis on creating a friendly atmosphere that puts newcomers at ease and welcomes old friends with a smile, the conference was designed to provide ample opportunities for networking and doing business. And, with a strong program with multiple tracks and a preconference day of in-depth workshops, attendees could strengthen their knowledge and form profitable strategies. The exhibit hall was designed to be a place where everyone could gather and chat and find out what is new in the industry.
我们注重营造一个友好的空间，使新老朋友都可以在温暖、和谐的氛围中沟通、交流，为商业人士之间的沟通搭建了一个良好的桥梁。我们有深入的会前专题小组学习等各类型主打项目，是与会者增长知识、部署有利战略的绝佳机会。各位可以参观本地化产品与服务展览，探寻业内前沿。
The conference has done just that and now has been called “The marketplace of the language industry”.
大会自举办以来，始终服务于本地化行业，被誉为“语言行业争鸣大会”。

China’s major economic trends have begun to impact far beyond the PRC Mainland. Whether it’s consumers, tourists, investment or competition, Chinese economics have already started to impact Asia and beyond. And we are just at the beginning of this process. In this keynote presentation, Peking University professor Jeffrey Towson will jump forward to the year 2025 and describe how Asia has been transformed by Chinese consumers, competitors and capital. He will detail the longer-term impact of economic forces already underway, such as the rapidly rising number of Chinese consumers (especially Chinese women and millennials); digital transformation of industry; mobile innovation and services; geographically expanding Chinese companies; transformative Chinese investment; and others. China and Asia in 2025 will be remarkably different from what it is today. And this raises the question: Are you and your business going to be ready?
中国的经济大潮逐渐波及中国大陆以外的地区。中国的消费者、游客、投资或竞争已经开始影响亚洲及其他地区，目前我们尚处在该进程的初始阶段。在本演讲中，北京大学教授Jeffrey Towson将带我们到2025年，描绘未来亚洲如何被中国消费者、竞争者和资本所改变。他将详述现今中国经济力的长期影响，如消费者快速增长（尤其是女性和千禧一代消费者）；工业数字化，移动创新和服务，企业向外扩张，中国投资转型等。到2025年，中国和亚洲将与现在截然不同，您和您的企业是否准备好了？

Asian companies are rapidly expanding abroad and a common decision that localization program managers must make is whether to centralize or decentralize localization programs. This decision will impact how decisions are made, budgets are spent, content is managed and the team is structured. This decision may even influence the success of your company’s products or services in local markets. We will discuss how Asian companies manage their localization programs as they expand internationally and what factors to consider when deciding to centralize or decentralize a localization program. We will share experiences about the impact of centralized or decentralized localization programs on business key performance indicators and how the management of centralized and decentralized programs differs. The discussion will also cover the pros and cons of decentralization, lessons learned and how to decide if you should centralize or decentralize your localization program as you expand either abroad or in Asia.

Throughout 2016, LocWorld conference attendees were talking feverishly about continuous localization as if it were a new fashionable term for the localization industry. However, when asked how it was working out for them, the response was frequently along the lines of “we still have a long way to go” or the less encouraging “we haven’t even started yet.” The localization industry’s brief obsession with the agile software development methodology amounted to nothing significant, but it did fuel the desire for faster localization. To make this possible, there needed to be a seismic shift in the way software is developed and released. Continuous localization is the new black. It is a fusion of software internationalization and localization processes with a continuous integration and deployment environment. This session is for organizations that are thinking about continuous localization. We will look at the ingredients for blending localization processes with a new or existing continuous integration environment. We will also examine the tools and interfaces that can be used to automate continuous deployment of locales. By the end of the session you will recognize the key elements needed to design a continuous localization framework, and you will understand the marvels of modern gadgets and gizmos that make it much more than just an agile talking point.
2016年全年，本地化世界大会的参加者们都热衷于谈论持续本地化，好像这是业内的流行术语。然而，一问起其成效，人们却常回应称“还有很长的路要走”，稍悲观的态度是“我们还没开始进行本地化”。本地化行业短暂地追逐过快捷软件开发技术，虽然没有成果，但确实使人们更加渴望更快捷的本地化。要实现快捷本地化，软件的开发和发布方式都需要巨大的转变。持续本地化将软件国际化和本地化进程融入持久的一体化部署环境中，是新趋势。本讲座面向有意实现持续本地化的组织，列出本地化进程融入新的或已有的持续一体化环境的各要素。我们将考察当地持续部署自动化的工具和界面。持续本地化不只是纸上谈兵，通过本讲座，您将了解持续本地化网络设计的关键要素，领略现代技术的神奇之处。

When dealing with a new acquisition’s product, and in order to understand the globalization/localization maturity of the product, developers have to check the source code piece-by-piece and spend much time reviewing the source code. The lack of systematic analysis against source code makes globalization development more difficult. Therefore, we would like to introduce a source code globalization deficiencies analysis application. It is a set of coding rules that can be used to identify and eliminate globalization coding errors. There is also a globalization maturity assessment application for mobile which is a user interface-based wizard where users could answers questions in 20 minutes then get an analysis report to know the product’s globalization maturity.
为了解被收购企业产品的全球化/本地化程度，开发者们必须逐个检查源代码，花大量时间进行审查。由于缺乏对源代码的系统性分析，全球化进程更加艰难。因此，我们想介绍一款分析源代码全球化缺陷的应用。该应用使用一套编码规则，识别并消除全球化编码错误。此外，还有一款安装在手机上的全球化程度评估应用，是一款基于用户的向导程序，用户可在20分钟内回答完毕问题，得到分析报告，了解产品的全球化程度。
Takeaways: Attendees will learn about the globalization rules for systematic analysis against source code, how to measure globalization maturity of a product in order to get the globalization enablement effort and test strategy, and understand the globalization process for new acquisitions.

At present there is no precise indication of the benefits of using statistical machine translation (SMT) for potential users. The question “Is this going to save me time and/or money and if so how much?” is not addressed in any systematic way. The common answer provided by most SMT service providers is “Well, it depends.” This is far from the answer that users need in order to make an informed decision about whether to go ahead with SMT or not.
潜在用户使用统计机器翻译能获得哪些好处，现在尚不明确。“是否能节约时间和/或金钱，能节约多少？”的问题还没有一个系统的答案。大部分统计机器翻译服务商的回答是“这要视情况而定。”仅依靠这个回答，用户仍然无法决定是否要继续使用统计机器翻译。

Google Speak is a special language designed to convey Google’s values, culture and spirit. But it is just impossible to have one phrasing fit all. This is where the Google localization team steps in, to give Google Speak its unique local flavor for each language. Should we leave humor, amplify it or expunge it? Would polite instructions be ignored? What product name is a horribly offensive word in some parts of the world?

In this session we will present topics from three perspectives: artificial intelligence (AI) and cognition; language technologies under AI; and language services in the age of AI. The progress of cross-language big data and AI cognition technology will greatly influence the translation industry in the new era. In particular, the cross-language big data will break information barriers and improve the capability of scientific research; by integrating machine learning into machine translation, cold machines are enabled to think like humans; in the end, the development of AI technologies will deliver scenario-based application experience of language cognition. Such development also means new challenges for the language service industry. A new topic to think about and explore is how to achieve the collaborative development of language, big data and AI. In China, the Language Big Data Alliance (LBDA) has been established through the efforts of enterprises, governments and higher education institutions. It has accomplished the collaborative innovation of these parties through resource sharing platforms and cooperative mechanisms, thus facilitating the integrated development of language, big data and AI.
我们将提出三大话题：人工智能与认知、人工智能化语言技术、人工智能时代的语言服务。在新时代，跨语言大数据和人工智能认知技术的进步将大大影响翻译行业。跨语言大数据将打破信息屏障，加强科研能力。机器学习与机器翻译结合后，机器就能像人脑一样思考。最终，人工智能技术将发布语言认知情境应用。这些发展也将给语言服务行业带来新挑战。我们要考虑、探索的新话题是：如何实现语言、大数据和人工智能三者协同发展。在中国，企业、政府和高等学府一同成立语言大数据联盟。他们通过资源共享平台与合作机制，实现了协同创新，促进了语言、大数据和人工智能的共同发展。

A global content strategy provides your company a solid foundation to tightly manage, automate and integrate information development and translation processes. Product content — typically documentation, help, user guides, release notes and so on — provides relevant information for customers to use your products. Critical for success is to interlock content authored by documentation teams with the translation processes by the localization teams. Companies working with global teams can closely coordinate efforts with product development for more rapid global product releases. Smooth and automated processes requires planning, management and governance across organizations. Investing in key initiatives such as terminology, translation, content management and publishing provides the automation and infrastructure to speed your content to global markets. In this session we will present and discuss emerging best practices and approaches to invest in modular product content to support a global content strategy. Attendees will gain a perspective of how to develop key initiatives with other groups in their company, manage changes within your organization and hear about how other companies are successful with content strategy initiatives.
全球内容策略为企业提供坚实基础，对信息开发与翻译过程进行严格管理、自动化操作与融合。产品内容，一般指文件、帮助、用户指南、发行提示等等，为消费者提供产品使用的相关信息。成功的关键在于把文件团队发布的内容和本地化团队的翻译过程联结起来。某些公司与全球团队合作，能协调产品开发，加快全球产品发布。流畅自动化的过程需要在各组织之间进行规划、管理与掌控。对术语、翻译、内容管理和出版等关键倡议的投入，催生了自动化和基础设施，从而加快内容投放到全球市场的速度。我们将呈现并探讨最佳作法与模块化产品内容的投资方法，支撑全球内容战略。你们将了解如何与公司内部其他团队一起开发关键倡议，在组织内部控制变化；以及其他公司如何制订内容策略。

Localization tools are not just for language service providers. Clients and/or end users of language services should also be aware of the basic concept of computer-assisted translation (CAT) and machine translation as long as they intend to save cost, resources and time. Some localization tools can facilitate not only translation but also editorial procedures of other industries. By the end of the day, almost all companies in the consulting and financial service sectors may use proper CAT software to improve their efficiency and keep consistency of their brand image and value proposition. Key words here are think-outside-of-the-box and influencing the influential.
本地化工具不仅是语言服务商的专享，语言服务的客户及/或终端用户只要想降低成本、减少资源与时间，都应该了解机器辅助翻译的基本概念。一些本地化工具不仅能促进翻译，还能促进其它行业的编辑程序。最终，可能所有的咨询和金融服务公司都会使用机器辅助翻译软件，提升效率，保持品牌形象与价值主张的一致性。成功的关键在于打破常规，传播影响力。
Takeaways: Attendees will learn about the typical workflows within research departments of global investment banks; the pros and cons of translating research reports with CAT tools; and get an outlook of working from PDF files to multimedia localization.
要点：参加者们将了解全球各投资银行研究部门的常规工作流程，使用机辅工具翻译研究报告的优劣势，以及PDF文件到多媒体本地化的转换。

Interested in a unique track at LocWorld? Are you ready to join the conversation and discussions? Again, we are holding an “unconference” at LocWorld. Never heard of that? An unconference consists of participant-driven sessions, decidedly without the conventional format of a conference. There are no PowerPoint presentations and no sales pitches! There are only topics the group votes on. There is no agenda until the participants create one on the spot, at the beginning of the meeting.

In late 2011 the TAUS Dynamic Quality Framework (DQF) working group published its first report on translation quality evaluation. This report kindled a strong interest in translation quality management. In early 2015, Willem Stoeller created a new training course on translation quality management and DQF in close cooperation with TAUS. This training was subsequently completely updated in early 2016 to reflect the DQF integration with MQM, the availability of the DQF application programming interface, and finally the DQF Dashboard for reporting purposes. This training presents a comprehensive overview of a translation quality methodology combined with a review of all DQF components. The course also includes a number of real-world case studies.
2011年末，TAUS (DQF)工作小组发布了其第一份翻译质量评估报告。该报告燃起了人们对翻译质量管理的浓厚兴趣。2015年初，Willem Stoeller与TAUS合作，新开了一门与翻译质量管理和DQF相关的课程。为结合DQF和MQM，展示DQF应用编程界面及DQF报告仪表盘，该训练课程已在2016年初完成了整体更新。该训练课程囊括了许多真实案例分析，考察了所有DQF元素，对翻译质量方法论进行全面概述。

The 21st century has seen an increasing tendency of localization as a form of intercultural communication. In globalized markets, role players with various cultural backgrounds are involved and localization becomes a more dynamic, communicative and cultural process. Localizers often have to make strategic choices in many areas beyond language. Also, as an important driver of change, new translation technology pushes human beings to focus more on fully utilizing their sense of human experience and incorporating relevant context into the semantic understanding and production of messages. In this workshop we will discuss components of localizers’ cultural competence from a communicative perspective and propose a relevancy approach to cultivate this competence in localization training and practice.
在21世纪，本地化作为一种跨文化交流形式，逐渐成为新趋势。不同文化背景的人们都参与到全球市场中，本地化成为一种更具活力的沟通和文化过程。本地化人员经常要在许多非语言领域，做出战略性选择。新型翻译技术，作为一种重要的催化剂，使人们更加专注于充分利用自身经验，把语义理解和信息产出融入相关情境中。我们将从交际角度出发，探讨本地化人员的文化竞争力，并采用相关性的方式，在本地化培训与实践中培养这种能力。
