Newlook ASC, new WOSC address, machine translation

Newlook ASC, new WOSC address, machine translation Purpose – To discuss the announcement of plans for invigoration of the American Society for Cybernetics, with reference to that society's web site for details. Design/methodology/approach – The aim is to review developments on the internet, especially those of general cybernetic interest. New arrangements for the WOSC web site and associated internet items are explained. Illustrations are given of limitations of simple machine translation. Findings – The ASC is alive and well. The WOSC web site is accessible despite the discontinuation of the British Library facility. Simple machine translation can produce bizarre results. Practical implications – Developments in the ASC will be worth watching, new WOSC details should be noted, and results of simple machine translation need to be used with care. Originality/value – It is hoped this is a valuable periodic review. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Kybernetes Emerald Publishing

Abstract

Purpose – To discuss the announcement of plans for invigoration of the American Society for Cybernetics, with reference to that society's web site for details. Design/methodology/approach – The aim is to review developments on the internet, especially those of general cybernetic interest. New arrangements for the WOSC web site and associated internet items are explained. Illustrations are given of limitations of simple machine translation. Findings – The ASC is alive and well. The WOSC web site is accessible despite the discontinuation of the British Library facility. Simple machine translation can produce bizarre results. Practical implications – Developments in the ASC will be worth watching, new WOSC details should be noted, and results of simple machine translation need to be used with care. Originality/value – It is hoped this is a valuable periodic review.
