Abstract
This paper examines the types of machine aid which are suitable for use in a large translating operation such as those met in the European Community institutions. After reviewing the way in which these machine aids are already being used in large organizations, and examining the areas in which they can be of benefit to the running of the whole organization, the speaker warns of possible difficulties in introducing them. If these difficulties can be overcome, many advantages can be gained in a large organization by introducing a fully-integrated word-processing system in which all texts are stored in electronic archives and can be transmitted electronically from one work station to another, and from one country to another. The principles on which such a system could be developed can also be of immediate practical interest to the small user.Keywords
