A translation network is a network of control systems that are designed to solve problems in a task domain. The output of one control system is translated into jargon that is sensible to another system. For example the manufacturing hand and the manufacturing eye are examples of two control systems where exchanged messages must be at least partially translated. 1, record 2, English, - translation%20network

These are defined as compensation of employees, per unit of real output(in the value added sense) in the manufacturing sector. Account is taken of employer-paid social insurance premia and other employment taxes as well as wages and salaries. For the most recent quarters, however, the unit labor cost indexes typically refer more narrowly to wages or wages and salaries per unit of total output of manufactured products(rather than of value added in the manufacturing sector). 3, record 3, English, - unit%20labour%20cost

Ces coûts sont définis comme étant la rémunération des personnes employées, par unité de production réelle (au sens de la valeur ajoutée), dans le secteur manufacturier. Il est ainsi tenu compte non seulement des salaires et traitements, mais aussi des primes d'assurance sociale à la charge de l'employeur, ainsi que des autres charges salariales; toutefois, pour les trimestres les plus récents, les indices des coûts unitaires de main-d'œuvre se rapportent plus spécifiquement aux salaires ou salaires et traitements par unité de production totale de produits manufacturés qu'à la valeur ajoutée dans le secteur manufacturier. 2, record 3, French, - co%C3%BBt%20unitaire%20de%20main%2Dd%27%26oelig%3Buvre

Electric Arc Furnace Dust(EAF Dust) is the airborne dust generated in the steel manufacturing process when metal scrap is electrically melted. It is typically only about 1. 5% of the output from a typical mini-mill, but creates an environmental problem which must be handled intelligently. The material is a calcium iron silicate with contaminants of heavy metals such as lead, zinc, cadmium, chromium and others. 4, record 4, English, - electric%20arc%20furnace%20dust
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 2 CONT
In a typical electric arc furnace (EAF) operation for melting iron-containing scrap, approximately one to two per cent of the charge is converted into dust which is collected in the baghouse. These EAF dusts have been classified as hazardous wastes due to their lead, cadmium and hexavalent chromium contents; however, these dusts also contain large quantities of zinc and iron whose recovery is economically attractive. 5, record 4, English, - electric%20arc%20furnace%20dust

Lors de l'opération typique d'un four à arc (EAF) pour la fonte de rebut contenant du fer, approximativement 1 à 2 % de la charge est convertie en poussière qui est récupérée par l'unité de filtration. Ces poussières du four à arc ont été classées comme déchets dangereux à cause de leur contenu en plomb, en cadmium et en chrome hexavalent; cependant, ces poussières contiennent également de grandes quantités de zinc et de fer dont la récupération est économiquement intéressante.
