    In an age of ever-accelerating technological advancements, the【C1】________between translation and technology is only deepening. As illustrated by earlier initiatives such as the Language Engineering for Translators Curricula in the late 1990s (LETRAC 1998), the need for technology literacy has been【C2】________for some time now as part of professional competence for translators not only by the translation industry but also by academia; the importance of technology for translation is such that some consider translation technologies as a new【C3】________academic discipline in its own right (Alcina 2008). Technologies have significantly affected both the translators’【C4】________, shaping their immediate local work environment, and also their【C5】________of global operating contexts in which new technologies are creating new content or products which require translation, as well as【C6】________new ways of doing translation as illustrated by the current trend of crowdsourcing (Howe 2006, 2008). However, in contrast to the increasing evidence of technology seeping into all aspects of translation practice, technology per se has not made any significant epistemic impact on the academic discipline of translation studies. The rather【C7】________nature of the translation industry, which comprises many freelance translators as well as large public sector and private language service providers makes it difficult to paint an average picture of the impact of new technologies as perceived by the different stakeholders. For this reason, rather than see-king to represent today’s typical technology use in the translation industry, this chapter focuses on the relatively high-end and emerging technology trends in an attempt to gauge the nature of the impact already made by technology and its【C8】________for the near future.
    Key technological impacts on translation are discussed in terms of two categories: (i) the development of translation tools and platforms directly providing a (support)【C9】________for translators, which could be considered as shaping translators’ micro environment; and (ii) the emergence of new types of source text or content and new ways of doing translation, leading to new translation practices, such as crowdsourcing, which could be seen as affecting translators’ macro environment. A further, associated category includes tools to【C10】________translation research that have become available thanks to advances in technology.
