13 mars 2015 : Localizing Web apps: How far should localization go?

Conférence donnée par Dr. Johann Roturier, Symantec Research Labs
le vendredi 13 mars 2015 à 11h00 en salle M6093

Abstract
In this talk, I will use two Web application examples to review multiple internationalization and localization tasks in the light of recent advances in the field. Specifically, I will focus on the ACCEPT Portal, an open-source demonstration and experimentation Web application that was created during the FP7 ACCEPT project. Since this application supports content editing and evaluation activities, it raises challenging localization-related issues. I will also briefly review a small mobile-ready Web application to illustrate a different set of localization challenges.
