Computing and Minority Languages Group

The CaML Group has been investigating aspects of the relationship between minority languages and Information Technology since 2000.

Areas of current research include: minority culture and minority language communities online; Web sites for bilingual users; the language behaviour of bilingual users in online environments; and issues of internationalisation, localisation and indigenous production. The extent to which Internet based technologies pose both a threat and an opportunity for minorities is of particular interest.
