olemus
ISO/IEC 2382:
programm, mis ühe või mitme sõltumatult transleeritud objektmooduli või laademooduli töötlemisel lahendab nende moodulite vahelised ristviited, loob moodulite vahele lingid, rajab lükandelemendid ning vajaduse korral sobitab aadressid, luues sel teel uusi laademooduleid
= a program, that, when processing one or more independently translated object modules or load modules, resolves cross-references among these modules, provides links between or among them, establishes relocatable elements, and, if necessary, adjusts addresses, thus creating new load modules
