Today NICT's mission is to carry out research and development in the field of information and communications technology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fujitsu.com/global/news/pr/archives/month/2012/20120618-01.html )〕 It has a range of responsibilities including generating and disseminating Japan's national frequency and time standards; conducting type approval tests of radio equipment for the Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS) and marine radar based on Japan's Radio Law; and providing regular observations of the ionosphere and space weather. It also operates the JJY, a low frequency time signal. In late August 2015, it was announced that a terahertz radiation scanner developed by the institute would be one of the instruments carried by the ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer, currently due for launch in 2022. ==Japanese-English Bilingual Corpus of Wikipedia's Kyoto Articles== The Japanese-English Bilingual Corpus of Wikipedia's Kyoto Articles is used for supporting research and development relevant to high-performance multilingual machine translation, information extraction, and other language processing technologies. NICT has created this corpus by manually translating Japanese Wikipedia articles (related to Kyoto) into English. The Japanese-English Bilingual Kyoto Lexicon was created by extracting the Japanese-English word pairs from this corpus. As of December 23, 2010, 14,111 Japanese articles are translated into English.〔The last modified date of a file (Wiki_Corpus_List_2.01.csv) containing the list of translated articles is December 23, 2010.〕 Use and/or redistribution of the Corpus and the Lexicon is permitted under the conditions of Creative Commons Attribution-Share-Alike License 3.0.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=National Institute of Information and Communications Technology )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National Institute of Information and Communications Technology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
