American Society for Velociraptor Attack Prevention UAT Instructor Creates Cuneiform and Hieroglyphic Translator SOURCE: University of Advancing Technology August 23, 2007 06:00 ET TEMPE, AZ--(Marketwire - August 23, 2007) - University of Advancing Technology (UAT) instructor and senior web developer Joe McCormack has completed work on a web-based application that translates English words into cuneiform script from the Assyrian, Babylonian, Sumerian and the hieroglyphic script of Egyptian. The translator works by converting cuneiform and hieroglyphs, both used in the earliest forms of writing, into English words. McCormack, a UAT web developer by trade, worked more than 1,000 hours on researching the cuneiform and hieroglyphic and building the tool and its accompanying website. The website translator engine took approximately an hour to create, with the language database occupying two hundred hours to line up cuneiforms and hieroglyphics with text descriptors and make a hierarchy to prioritize the information. McCormack is talking with museums and institutions to garner further exposure.
