Abstract
The main focus of this thesis is the potential use of Matecat as a source of data on the way translators carry out their work. The software allows its users to download a file called ‟editing log”, which contains data about the translation project carried out; some of these data, namely the ‟post-editing effort” and ‟time-to-edit” statistics, concern the work of the translators, and can be used as tools to evaluate the way they work. The project within which the software has been used is the localization of AlmaRM, the web-based platform used by the University of Bologna to manage incoming and outgoing mobility. The localization of the platform can be viewed as part of the general effort of the Univeristy towards greater internationalization. As part of the localization process, files whose content belongs to different textual typologies were translated, making it possible to test the effectiveness of Matecat's default MT engine (based on the Google and Microsoft APIs) on different kinds of texts.
The thesis is composed of five chapters: the first is introductory and is concerned with the context in which the localization project was carried out and its purpose; the second chapter is an overview of the main aspects of the translation world related to the project and the literature about them; the third chapter guides the reader
through the different parts of the project carried out; the fourth chapter details the analysis of the editing logs associated with the project; the fifth chapter recaps the whole dissertation and presents the final thoughts on the results of the analysis.
