Language Weaver to Demonstrate Integration of Automated Translation into Homeland Security Support Applications at Intelink Conference; Government tradeshow gives companies the chance to show off information sharing technologies.

LOS ANGELES -- Language Weaver, a leading software company developing enterprise software for the automated translation of human languages, today announced it will demonstrate multiple applications where automated language translation has been integrated with communications programs that help the homeland security and U.S. defense efforts. The demonstrations will take place at DNI's Intelink and Information Sharing Conference (formerly Intelink), to be held in Denver from August 21-24, 2006, at the Hyatt Regency at Colorado Convention Center.

Language Weaver, exhibiting in Booth 511, will demonstrate applications that are already in use today by various government organizations and some that have yet to be instituted. These include a demo of media monitoring of Arabic television broadcasts translated into English text, cross-lingual Web search applications, and a portable speech-to-speech translator system that helps soldiers in the field communicate with Iraqi citizens and military commanders.

According to the office of the Director of National Intelligence on its conference Website, "The lessons learned from 9/11 clearly indicate that simply gathering and storing critical information is not sufficient. Rather, entities involved in protecting the nation must proactively share information to create the clearest and most accurate picture possible."

To that end, Language Weaver has been working with partners to develop multilingual applications that are immediately useful and that support not only intelligence gathering but also communications among interested parties.

Bryce Benjamin, CEO at Language Weaver, says, "We are supporting the clear trend to provide information to and receive information from users and sources outside the traditional set of national security options. With the significant advances that have been made in not only automated language translation but also speech recognition, Web search and other areas, we have developed tools that can really impact both our defense stance and our communications efforts."

Although the conference is unclassified, all registrants must be signed up by August 18, 2006. See the NCSI website for additional information: http://www.ncsi.com/intelink06/agenda.shtml
