I would suggest using a glossary as well.
Aside from the reason provided in Academia you must consider you are writing in a field of knowledge that is quickly evolving.
You should implement a glossary to clarify what a term means in your work and in the timeframe you are writing.
It is quite possible in IT that terms may evolve in a relatively short timespan, broadening their initial scope. A reader in 10 years may quickly decide if your work is outdated by giving a cursory look at your glossary.
