Results for commercialised translation from Chinese (Simplified) to English

hyperwave has been developed at iicm in graz. it started with the name hyper-g and changed to hyperwave when it was commercialised (in 1996).
a time limited version can be ordered for free (30 days).

the network protocol to communicate with the hyperwave server is called hg-csp (hyper-g client/server protocol). it is based on messages to initiate certain actions, e.g. get object record. in early versions of the hyperwave server two native clients (harmony, amadeus) were provided for communication with the server. those two disappeared when hyperwave was commercialised. as a replacement a so called wavemaster was provided. the wavemaster is like a protocol converter from http to hg-csp. the idea is to do all the administration of the database and visualisation of documents by a web interface. the wavemaster implements a set of placeholders for certain actions to customise the interface. this set of placeholders is called the place language. place lacks a lot of features of a real programming language and any extension to it only enlarges the list of placeholders. this has led to the use of javascript which imo does not make life easier.
on a web server this is given by the file system, but hyperwave has its own hierarchy and names do not reflect the position of an object in that hierarchy.
