Synopsis
Extensively revised by a team of computer specialists, this is a comprehensive dictionary of computing. There are now some 6000 entries - 2000 more than in the third edition - and a comprehensive cross-referencing system. The range of topics covered include: computer applications in industry, the office, science, education, and the home; the means of achieving these applications - the hardware, software, computer organization, telecommunictions, and user interaction, as well as security, safety, and legal aspects; underlying concepts and theories in computing and associated fields; and major computer manufacturers and organizations. Special emphasis has been placed on the terms widely used in relation to personal computers and computer networks. This fourth edition should prove useful to students and teachers of computing, and all computer users, whether in the home, lab, or business.
