Description:
The world of computers is fast-moving and keeping up-to-date with the terminology involved is a daunting task. The ninth edition of this well-established, authoritative glossary has been thoroughly updated and now provides extensive coverage of all those new terms relating to the internet. The explanatory text is structured around three themes: how computer systems are used, what Computer systems are made up of, and how computer systems work.
Expand description
The glossary provides explanations for over 2,400 computing terms, covering all aspects of computing from programming languages to personnel, from architecture to applications, from storage to systems software. The glossary is written in simple non-technical language, contains numerous illustrations throughout, and does not assume computer proficiency. Essays which illustrate how terms may be used in a written context and provide background information introduce the various sections.
