 TERMINOLOGY is an independent journal with a cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural scope.
The editorial focus is on the discussion of (systematic) solutions to language problems
encountered in translation and in (monolingual) situations of ambiguity, reference and
developments in multidisciplinary communication. Particular attention is given to new
and developing subject areas such as knowledge representation and transfer, informa-
tion technology tools, expert systems and terminological databases.
TERMINOLOGY encompasses terminology both in general (theory and practice) and in spe-
cialized fields (LSP), such as: Physics, Biomedical Sciences, Social Sciences, Technol-
ogy, Engineering, Humanities, Management, Law, Arts, Business Administration, Trade,
Corporate Identity, Economics, Methodology and other areas in which terminology is
essential to improve communication.
TERMINOLOGY contains in-depth articles, research reports, short notes, book reviews, soft-
ware reviews, and reports on the activities of terminology organisations. Contributions
are subject to refereeing.
TERMINOLOGY invites relevant contributions. Authors are invited to consult the inside back
cover of this issue for Guidelines or www.benjamins.com
