DQF (Dynamic Quality Framework) has become a standard reference for translation quality evaluation. Through the open DQF API, translation tools connect with the TAUS Quality Dashboard, allowing translators, project managers, reviewers, QA specialists and translation buyers to measure and track the productivity and quality of translation. Alex Han will present the Quality Dashboard and demonstrate how DQF works with Trados Studio (See also: https://www.taus.net/think-tank/reports/evaluate-reports/taus-quality-dashboard-document).
