Auto-Translation Instant Messenger using XMPP/Jabber Protocol

Effective communication is a vital component in decision making process. However,
the language barrier established from the differences in culture and origin can
interrupt the process of coming to an understanding. Various translation methods
have been used to break this barrier. The traditional ways of using human translator
or the usage of lingua franca imposed some problem and limitations.
Auto-Translation Instant Messenger is an 1M program that aimed to provide instant
translation to users when they communicate with people of different speaking
language. It is developed under the XMPP protocol that provides standards and
flexibilities at the same time.
In the process of completing this project, Modified Waterfall methodology was
chosen as guidance in the development of the working program. Important project
activities and milestones are explained. As part of analysis process, a set of
questionnaire have been distributed and its result will act as guidance in designing
and developing the program. This project is aimed to learn in deep about XMPP,
machine translation and instant messaging
