Synopsis

Computing Handbook, Third Edition: Computer Science and Software Engineering mirrors the modern taxonomy of computer science and software engineering as described by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the IEEE Computer Society (IEEE-CS). Written by established leading experts and influential young researchers, the first volume of this popular handbook examines the elements involved in designing and implementing software, new areas in which computers are being used, and ways to solve computing problems. The book also explores our current understanding of software engineering and its effect on the practice of software development and the education of software professionals.

Like the second volume, this first volume describes what occurs in research laboratories, educational institutions, and public and private organizations to advance the effective development and use of computers and computing in today’s world. Research-level survey articles provide deep insights into the computing discipline, enabling readers to understand the principles and practices that drive computing education, research, and development in the twenty-first century.

About this title

Review:

"The survey papers in the handbook, which are written by international experts, offer a profound understanding of computer science and software engineering. They have been organized so that they may be read independently. The handbook is up to date and reflects the current Computing Curricula. The previous editions of the handbook were well received. The third edition ... will be an invaluable reference for professionals, researchers, and students."
