Download or read book Application driven Terminology Engineering written by Fidelia Ibekwe-SanJuan and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A common framework under which the various studies on terminology processing can be viewed is to consider not only the texts from which the terminological resources are built but particularly the applications targeted. The current book, first published as a Special Issue of Terminology 11:1 (2005), analyses the influence of applications on term definition and processing. Two types of applications have been identified: intermediary and terminal applications (involving end users). Intermediary applications concern the building of terminological knowledge resources such as domain-specific dictionaries, ontologies, thesaurus or taxonomies. These knowledge resources then form the inputs to terminal applications such as information extraction, information retrieval, science and technology watch or automated book index building. Most of the applications dealt with in the book fall into the first category. This book represents the first attempt, from a pluridisciplinary viewpoint, to take into account the role of applications in the processing of terminology.

Download or read book Study of Engineering Terminology and Relationships Among Engineering Terms written by Engineers Joint Council and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of this report were to determine the extent of common terminology, the degree of ambiguity of term meanings, and to evaluate the possibility of creating a unified vocabulary useful in the origination, storage, retrieval and dissemination of engineering information. The methods of achieving these objectives were to collect from the major engineering societies (plus Defense Documentation Center, Engineering Index, Engineering Societies Library and NASA) subject heading lists, thesauri, glossaries or term lists which they consider useful in indexing. Terms contributed by more than one organization were selected for most intensive consideration by ten subcommittees covering the major fields of engineering. During twenty-seven weeks of full-time effort the subcommittees selected terms adjudged of most utility within the engineering profession, resolved any serious ambiguities in term meaning, developed and recorded cross-references between terms, and provided scope notes and term definitions as needed. A total of about 10,500 terms were treated during this period. A 1000 term sample of the proposed vocabulary was analyzed from the results of the analysis. (Author).
