4. FINAL REMARKS
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> The components of the translator's workstation are in an advanced stage of implementation. We envisage a final integrated system in which the translator creates his document using one of the commercially available word processing packages from which he can access and query the bilingual (and monolingual) lexical databases or the bilingual text archives whenever the need arises. In this way, not only will he be able to consult much material otherwise inaccessible, but the speed of the system response times means that, to a large extent, it is possible to avoid that interruption to concentration so often involved when it is necessary to stop work to perform a manual look-up of a reference work.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> The rapid recent technological progress in the computer hardware world means that it is increasingly possible to provide desk-top tools with large storage capacities at relatively low costs; the workstation is thus being implemented on personal computers and runs under the MS/DOS operating system.</Paragraph>
