A translation memory (TM) is a component used in machine translation, which efficiently searches a database of previously translated text fragments in order to locate one which closely resembles the fragment being translated. In this project, literature survey on translation memory concepts and currently used translation memories will be done. A corpus as large as possible containing Turkish and English sentences (translations of each other) will be built. An algorithm for searching on this corpus will be developed and implemented. The algorithm may also be applied to some other corpora as well. The performance of the algorithm will be analyzed in detail.

In the case of an MS thesis, the algorithm to be developed will be expected to be a sophisticated one and will bear a contribution to existing algorithms.
