Abstract
This paper describes an approach to mediating accesses to multiple information sources in a multi-lingual application. There are many information sources available on the Internet in different languages, and machine translation services are also available to allow multi-lingual access to information sources. Domain-dependent translation dictionaries are often used to make translation more appropriate. In the proposed approach, the domain-dependent translation dictionaries are represented as linked data. Using the data available from the translation dictionaries, accesses to the information sources that are represented as linked data can be customized. By applying the linked data concept, a multi-lingual application can be constructed in a flexible way.
