Abstract

A business model for Translation based on open source software

The presentation aims to draw inspiration and ideas for a business model for independent translators by taking a closer look at the services offered by Wikki, an open-source software and consultancy company delivering services around OpenFOAM® and foam-extend.

The presentation starts with a brief introduction of Wikki and the services it offers. As an illustrative example, the simulation of a complex heat exchanger will be outlined. The example will be used to identify where and when Wikki performs steps of a translation process (with reference to the translators' guide) and how open-source source helps Wikki to act more independently in this role.
