Abstract
Technology has had an important impact on the work of translators and represents a
shift in the boundaries of translation work over time. Improvements in machine
translation have brought about further boundary shifts in some translation work and
are likely to continue having an impact. Yet translators sometimes feel frustrated with
the tools they use. This chapter looks to the field of personalisation in information
technology and proposes that personalising translation technology may be a way of
improving translator-computer interaction. Personalisation of translation technology
is considered from the perspectives of context, user modelling, trust, motivation and
well-being.
