NATSPEC supported this project by the School of Computing in the University of Western Sydney (UWS) to develop a software application called Glossary Manager. This application allows glossaries of terms from a number of organisations to be compared so that differences in the definitions they assign to similar or identical terms can be identified and inconsistencies resolved. Consistent terminology and naming conventions are crucial to the smooth exchange of digital information. NATSPEC provided a glossary of its defined terms for loading into the Glossary Manager as part of its initial testing.
