Automatically generating a glossary of terms for a given document or group of documents

摘要

Automatically generating a glossary of terms for a given document or group of documents is provided. A single document or a group of documents associated with a given project or event are parsed for one or more unique terms (e.g., words, acronyms, phrases, etc.). Identified terms are passed to a local or external definition source, and definitions for the one or more identified terms are retrieved. Retrieved definitions are presented to a user of the documents, and approved definitions are stored in a project store for subsequent use in association with the documents.
