Claris CAD Claris CAD Claris CAD was a two-dimensional computer-aided design program for Apple Inc. Macintosh. Claris CAD was developed in 1988 by Claris Corporation in a joint effort with Craig S. Young of Computer Aided Systems for Engineering (CASE). It was based on MacDraw II and Young's earlier CAD application, "EZ-Draft". Version 1 was released in 1989 for Macintosh computers running System Software 6 or later. The initial releases were plagued with bugs, especially with the bundled plotter driver. Development halted in June 1991 with the release of version 2.0.3. Currently, Claris CAD can be run on older Macintoshes using the
Fuzzy matching (computer-assisted translation) Fuzzy matching (computer-assisted translation) Fuzzy matching is a technique used in computer-assisted translation as a special case of record linkage. It works with matches that may be less than 100% perfect when finding correspondences between segments of a text and entries in a database of previous translations. It usually operates at sentence-level segments, but some translation technology allows matching at a phrasal level. It is used when the translator is working with translation memory (TM). When an exact match cannot be found in the TM database for the text being translated, there is an option to search for a match
