Mundial is a demo of an internet search system
that searches for documents in multiple languages given a query in
English .
Mundial does this by translating your search terms and then
contacting major search services and asking them to search for the
translated terms.
Mundial can easily be extended to translate other languages, or to
translate queries in other languages to search for English documents
Mundial can also be extended to present related terms to the
user for evaluation before searching. That way the user can examine
incorrect "senses" of translations and weed out the bad terms.
Mundial can be extended to prepare summary translations of
the retrieved documents in any given language.
