automatización; automación: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "automatización" es el término adecuado para referirse a la acción y efecto de automatizar o hacer automático algo, mejor que "automación". [...] Tal y como señala el Diccionario panhispánico de dudas, el término "automación" es un calco innecesario de la voz inglesa "automation", pues en español existe ya el sustantivo "automatización" con el mismo significado. 1, record 1, Spanish, - automatizaci%C3%B3n
