Webster's New World Computer Dictionary
This book is one of the most useful references. It gives us clear and concise definitions for more than 4.750 up-to-date computer terms, including 250 that are completely new to this edition. We will find current coverage of the latest standards and protocols in storage, memory, peripherals, and more, plus updated and expanded information on computer security, legislation, and computer and Internet technology. Cross-referencing throughout directs us effortlessly to related terms and concepts that help us understand more about a given subject and put it into a larger context. From using e-mail and going on the Internet (attachment, computer virus, cookie, shopping cart) to buying or upgrading a computer (Ethernet, G4, Pentium 4, SDRAM) to boning up on terminology for a computer industry job (Advanced Encryption Standard, timecode editing, virtual private network), this invaluable resource gives us instant flip-and-find access to the information needed from A (applet) to Z (zip drive).
