22. A system for local, computer-aided translation using remotely-generated translation predictions comprising: a remote translation server comprising: a memory means for providing access to a stored translation, a remote processor means for determining that the translation stored in the remote translation memory is useful in translating a first portion of a document, and a transmitter means for transmitting the stored translation; and a local machine comprising: a receiver means for receiving the stored translation, and a local processor means for: determining, prior to receiving a communication from the remote translation memory indicating that the remote translation memory stores an updated version of the stored translation, and prior to receiving a request from a translator for the translation of the first portion of the document, that the means for providing access to the stored translation stores an updated version of the stored translation, identifying the updated version of the stored translation as useful in translating a second portion of the document, wherein the identification occurs before a translation of the second portion of the local document is generated, and using the updated version of the stored translation to generate a translation of the second portion of the document, the generation of the translation being in response to the identification of the utility of the updated version of the stored translation in translating the second portion of the document.
22. A system for local, computer-aided translation using remotely-generated translation predictions comprising: a remote translation server comprising: a memory means for providing access to a stored translation, a remote processor means for determining that the translation stored in the remote translation memory is useful in translating a first portion of a document, and a transmitter means for transmitting the stored translation; and a local machine comprising: a receiver means for receiving the stored translation, and a local processor means for: determining, prior to receiving a communication from the remote translation memory indicating that the remote translation memory stores an updated version of the stored translation, and prior to receiving a request from a translator for the translation of the first portion of the document, that the means for providing access to the stored translation stores an updated version of the stored translation, identifying the updated version of the stored translation as useful in translating a second portion of the document, wherein the identification occurs before a translation of the second portion of the local document is generated, and using the updated version of the stored translation to generate a translation of the second portion of the document, the generation of the translation being in response to the identification of the utility of the updated version of the stored translation in translating the second portion of the document. 30. The system of claim 22 , wherein the local machine further comprises a transmitter sending a request, to the remote translation server, for the updated version of the stored translation.
