There are some common concepts which are relationated with the translation world.

Machine Translation, sometimes referred to by the abbreviation MT, is a sub-field of computational linguistics that investigates the use of computer software to translate text or speech from one natural language to another. At its basic level, MT performs simple substitution of words in one natural language for words in another. Using corpus techniques, more complex translations may be attempted, allowing for better handling of differences in linguistic typology, phrase recognition, and translation of idioms, as well as the isolation of anomalies.

Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) is a form of translation wherein a human translator translates texts using computer software designed to support and facilitate the translation process.Computer-assisted translation is sometimes called machine-assisted, or machine-aided, translation.

Translation Technology: It is the action of interpretation of the meaning of a text, and subsequent production of an equivalent text, also called a translation, that communicates the same message in another language. The text to be translated is called the source text, and the language it is to be translated into is called the target language; the final product is sometimes called the “target text”.

 

Management in simple terms means the act of getting people together to accomplish desired goals.
