Translation Memory Translation Projects Terminology
To share… Translation Memory Terminology Consistent branding and technical terms Projects Live, shared translation memory Terminology Translation Memory Share translation projects in a central location Projects SDL Studio GroupShare
Proven Technology MultiTerm Server Project Server TM Server Consistent branding and technical terms Live, shared translation memory MultiTerm Server TM Server Share translation projects in a central location Project Server SDL Studio GroupShare
Sharing Translation Memory (TM Server) Server based Translation Memory: • Concurrent access – Enabling access for hundreds of team members • Live Updates – So that team members benefit from each others work • Centralised – For back-up and protection of valuable intellectual property
Sharing Terminology (MultiTerm Server) Server based Terminology Management: • Concept Based Terminology – Far more than just a glossary – Active and Deprecated Terms – Pictorial Representation – References to external resources via hyperlinks – Multilingual – One term (word) to several concepts, and vice versa • Centralised control of Corporate Terms – Protecting brand across global organisations • Common access across the entire organisation – Enabling access for marketing, tech docs, sales, product development
Sharing Projects (Project Server) • Extends TM sharing to include new assets – Source files and reference documents accessible on the server: no need to send them out (Fleur: see notes below) – Live sharing of Project Settings (E.g. common QA checking) • Live Progress Updates – Reporting to track project completion – Version tracking of documents • Secure Assignment and Notification [NEW!] – Allocate team members specific files – Team members manage project workflow themselves – Notification via email occurs automatically
Organising your teams in GroupShare • Tree Structure groups your team members by “organisation” – by client – by project – by type of team member • Organise Projects and Teams – Allocate team members to specific organisations – Always work in same way, or customise to suit the project • Changes cascade through the organisation – Adjust at a level affect those below – Fleur: I think I would take out this point, as it sounds a little vague and might be too detailed for a demo
SDL Studio GroupShare 2014 What’s New?
Secure Task Assignment on Project Server • Enhanced collaboration for translation teams working with Studio and MultiTerm – Secure task assignment to users using the concept of project phases • Preparation • Translation • Review • Finalisation – Files can move freely within these phases – back and forth as needed – Users can only see the files assigned to them – Permissions based on existing roles based system 21
Demonstration 22
Extending the GroupShare Platform REST-based Web Services API for GroupShare • Lightweight API access to core server functionality – TM, terminology lookup – Project tracking + publishing – User management • Interesting for large scale users – Integrate MultiTerm or TM lookup into Intranet search – Optimise user management – Create a mobile app that allows you to track projects 23
