About this title

Synopsis:

This edition has 1000 new entries. With over 5000 entries in all, covering software, hardware, robotics, communications, graphics, languages, information technology, databases, artificial intelligence, networking, pioneers, inventors, corporate and personal profiles, this is a complete dictionary of computer terminology and usage - and illustrated with tables, photographs and diagrams - all in full colour.

From the Author:

This industry badly needs to standardize its jargon.
This dictionary is not a collection of terms just for the fun of it.

It is a serious work that has taken over seven years of research. Now in its third edition, it has become known for its accuracy.

It contains a style manual so that readers will also know how to write documents that contain computer terms.

Students, teachers, business people, journalists, even industry experts will find this book easy to read, and easy to follow.

It is not a dry book. It contains some humor to make it much more interesting to pick up and browse through.

Best of all, this book is not aligned to any computer company. This means that the reader can received unbiased information about the industry at large.
