DE-DUPLICATION OF LOCALIZED RESOURCES

Abstract:

In a device for de-duplicating localized resources including a processor and a memory in communication with the processor, the memory includes executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to control the device to perform functions of accessing, from a data storage, a source resource package and a localized resource package containing first and second resources, respectively; filtering the localized resource package to identify the second resources that are not duplicates of the first resources; creating, based on the first resources, a language-neutral resource collection including a plurality of language-neutral resources; creating a localized resource collection including the second resources that are not duplicates of the first resources; and creating a deployment resource package containing the language-neutral and localized resource collections.
