%X A growing number of companies constituting the digitally globalized market make contacts and carry out business through the internet. To reach potential customers of technological products in different parts of the world, these companies need to have textual materials that accompany their products translated and adapted into several languages of targeted consumers. Brought forth by this demand and driven forward by the exponential increase of electronic commerce in the past two decades, the localization industry has become known for providing translation and adaptation services of games, electronic applications and other high-technology products. For operations to keep up with the contemporary pace of production and marketing of new technologies, it has become common practice in this sector to adopt simplified use of the source language in order to allow the use of translation memory systems.

Essas ferramentas t¨ºm sido adotadas principalmente por possibilitar
