Abstract
The importance of software localization has been increasing since the late 1980s. In the past, translation was an afterthought and translators would begin to tackle the entire project after development had been completed, or at a point very late in the development process. Nowadays, given the emphasis on developing and simultaneously shipping multiple language versions of a given software product, individual localizers often only focus on one discrete component of the overall localization workflow. Terminology management has emerged as one such distinct task in the localization process.
