The generation of new terms involves various factors at different levels and can be described and modelled from different points of view. This chapter analyses approaches that model terminological growth by describing the creation of new terms in relation to the terminology of a domain as a set or as a system, and/or in relation to the conceptual system that it represents. We first examine the concept of terminological growth in contrast to the description and modelling of term formation, and then describe the approaches used to model terminological growth. Finally, we discuss implications for practical issues in terminology processing.
