A complete lexicon of technical information, the Dictionary of Computer Science, Engineering, and Technology provides workable definitions, practical information, and enhances general computer science and engineering literacy. It spans various disciplines and industry sectors such as: telecommunications, information theory, and software and hardware systems. If you work with, or write about computers, this dictionary is the single most important resource you can put on your shelf. The dictionary addresses all aspects of computing and computer technology from multiple perspectives, including the academic, applied, and professional vantage points. Including more than 8,000 terms, it covers all major topics from artificial intelligence to programming languages, from software engineering to operating systems, and from database management to privacy issues. The definitions provided are detailed rather than concise. Written by an international team of over 80 contributors, this is the most comprehensive and easy-to-read reference of its kind. If you need to know the definition of anything related to computers you will find it in the Dictionary of Computer Science, Engineering, and Technology.

Completely revised, updated, reorganized, and enlarged with 600 new entries. Essential for writers and learners of American English, it features a unique new format, an appendix of 500 fixed-order phrases--such as "fast and furious--that cannot be reversed, and a Phrase-Finder Index for easy lookups of even partially remembered phrases.

Computers are more prevalent in our daily lives than ever before, yet many people are unfamiliar with the concepts and technology of computer science. The Facts On File Dictionary of Computer Science provides more than 1,600 entries that explain such fundamental concepts as hardware, software, and applications. It also defines terms associated with the latest technology and advancements, such as artificial intelligence and palmtop computers. The dictionary is a valuable resource for new computer users, students, teachers, and computer professionals.

"This comprehensive reference work provides immediate, fingertip access to state-of-the-art technology in nearly 700 self-contained articles written by over 900 international authorities. Each article in the Encyclopedia features current developments and trends in computers, software, vendors, and applications... extensive bibliographies of leading figures in the field, such as Samuel Alexander, John von Neumann, and Norbert Wiener... and in-depth analysis of future directions. "

TheEncyclopedia of Computers and Computer Historyprovides a complete A-to-Z reference guide to computers, their development, and their usage in today's world. Beginning with "Abacus," this two-volume set provides over 900 pages of facts, definitions, biographies, histories, and explanations of a remarkable variety of computer-related subjects. TheEncyclopedia's 600 entries--many of which represent the first reference treatment of their subjects--address the diverse topics that form the backbone of the information revolution. Entries include essays on major corporations, computing machines, software, networking, computing concepts, research, laboratories, and pioneering individuals in computing history. In addition to these essays, each entry is also followed by a helpful list of further reading on that subject. Contributors to theEncyclopediarepresent a wide cross-section of accomplished scholars in the fields of computer science and scientific history. Theirinformative, accessible essays enable readers to learn about computer history in a non-intimidating way. An invaluable addition to any library collection, theEncyclopedia of Computers and Computer Historyis an indispensable resource for undergraduates, graduate students, and anybody with an interest in, or question about, computers.

The first volume in a projected ten-volume set; articles are arranged alphabetically, and most are written to be comprehensible to the novice. The focus is on new developments primarily related to the introduction of microcomputers; this encyclopedia functions as a companion to the Encyclopedia of computer science and technology, the publication of which was completed in 1981. For microcomputer hardware specialists, programmers, systems analysts, engineers, operations researchers, and mathematicians, as well as readers in other disciplines where microcomputers are used to solve problems or process data.
