Localization involves not only textual adaptation but also modifying all the non-verbal, semiotic and cultural elements of a product in order to make it suitable for the target audience. In order to achieve this goal, translators and localizers can rely on the support provided by Computer Assisted Translation (CAT).
Traditionally, research in translation technology has been linked to Machine Translation. The lack of concluding results in this area in the last decades of the 20^th century opened new lines where the target was not achieving machine translation but developing new tools to assist human translators. The application of CAT has been widely studied by translation scholars (Austermühl 2001, Nogueira 2002, Biau and Pym 2006, Somers 2003, Melby 2006), and research in this field has contributed to improve and enhance translation technology. One of the main advances in this field has been the setting of a standard format, known as Translation Memory eXchange or TMX, which allows the exchange of translation memories among different applications (Abaitua 2001). This implies that more than one single tool can be used to carry out a project, fostering competition among translation software providers and giving translators more flexibility and freedom of choice.
The use of CAT is profitable for translators since it provides more efficiency and consistency in software localization. The more technical terminology is used and the bigger number of repetitions exists in a software application, the more suitable will be the use of CAT.
