Objective
PUBLINET's objective is to create a network of European publishers with the aim of putting their respective terminological resources on the Internet. The site will be operational at the end of 1998.
The primary objective of the project is to convert bilingual terminological resources, available via publishers, to a standard SGML format for terminological data (GENETER). The standardised resources can be re-used in various applications.
The terminological resources will be available on the Internet via the PUBLINET site. Such a network of publishers will quickly win over numerous disciples, since it not only allows global access to the principal PUBLINET site, but also targeted access to the "secondary sites" of each publisher, who thereby retain their own identity.
Moreover, publisher's existing dictionaries will be developed and supplemented, and experimentation with merging carried out so as to be able to offer multilingual terminological resources.
For the last twenty years, our means of communication have continued to evolve rapidly, and are now a primary economic and cultural factor. In addition, European integration and international exchanges are severely handicapped at all levels (economic, scientific, administrative) by the multiplicity of languages. As far as publishers are concerned, there is a growing need to find effective solutions in exploiting their linguistic resources. However, they have neither the technical expertise nor the necessary means to deal with a communicating society which is constantly evolving.
