Title: Qubit - A System for Translations Management and Authoring Author: Jindøich Cincibuch Department: Department of Distributed and Dependable Systems Supervisor: Mgr. Pavel Je¾ek, Ph.D., Department of Distributed and Dependable Systems Abstract: The goal of this thesis was to create a software solution that will allow translation agencies to better collaborate with freelance translators who do not own expensive translation tools. One part of the software solution is an information system with a graphical appli- cation that will allow translation agency staff to remotely assign documents for translation and manage them. Another part is a graphic application for freelance translators with an integrated graphic translations editor, in which translators will translate speci ed les. The software solution is primarily designed to sup- port the SDLXLIFF commercial translation format so that it can be reused in the original SDL Trados Studio application. In the text part of the thesis we present in detail the issue of translations and formats used for their sharing. It also presents the design, analysis and deve- lopment of the mentioned information system and graphical user applications. Subsequently, the structure of the implemented software solution is described. Keywords: Sdlxli tmx translation editor wcf..
