  1. SOLAS: Next Generation Localisation Reinhard Schäler (LOC Track Leader)

  2. @ UL • Conor Morris (UL, TTO) • ReinhardSchäler (LOC Track Leader) • Eoin Ó Conchúir (SOLAS Research Lead) • Aram Morera-Mesa (Researcher) • Lorcan Ryan (Researcher) • Lucia Morado Vazquez (Researcher) • Naoto Nishio (Researcher) • AsankaWasala (Researcher) • Ian O’Keeffe (Postdoctoral Researcher) • David Filip (Postdoctoral Researcher)

  3. Next Generation Localisation (LOC) Vision • Revisited following May 2011 review • Localisation is “a key industry for Ireland” and it “must remain at the technological forefront in order to retain and grow this highly remunerative activity”. • Flexible architectures (SOLAS) are key to future innovative technology frameworks supporting emerging and future localisation scenarios. • Need to “hire additional high-end professional programmers instead of postdocs”; and that there is a need “to allocate more budgets to workflow”, specifically to the development of SOLAS. • LOC’s success in the community-driven area is impressive: “this research direction shows vision and leadership for localisation”; it “could provide a compelling vision statement for marketing CNGL to industry and the world”. • Supported by Think Tank and LRC Industrial Advisory Board

  4. LOC: User-driven Localisation • Vision • We empower innovative community and social localisation efforts driving the most significant growth opportunity for the industry. • Mission • To produce world-leading applied research in … • Localisation content analysis • Localisation component technologies evaluation • Service-oriented localisation architecture solutions • …in collaboration with the academic and the industrial partners in the CNGL and beyond, validated by user communities in (for profit and not-for-profit) enterprise localisation. • [… with The Rosetta Foundation’s 1,800 volunteers as an extension to our research activity.]

  5. Goals • Provide content authors with feedback on the quality (localizability) and re-usability of their content, specifically in the context of user-generated content; • Assess and evaluate component technologies for Solas, demonstrating the suitability and adaptability requirements for components, specifically in the context of community and social localisation enterprise; • Develop the Service Oriented Localisation Architecture Solution (Solas) as a demonstrator and testbed for innovative localisation solutions; • Integrate CNGL, third party and open source components into SOLAS;

  6. Goalscontinued… • Establish an open source SOLAS code repository; • Build large and significant developer- and user-communities around the LOC effort within CNGL and beyond according to agreed targets; • Demonstrate the industrial value and impact of the LOC research by active user engagement and trials; • Hire an additional, high-end programmer for SOLAS development; • Work with CNGL towards a re-allocation of budgets to support a targeted SOLAS demonstrator development effort.
