Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information science is the study of information phenomena, including the acquisition, storage, and manipulation of data, information, and knowledge. It is by nature an interdisciplinary field. Researchers, managers, system users, and students need access to tools, terms, and techniques that are spread out over a large literature in a number of different disciplines: information retrieval, database management, office information systems, information technology, communication and networking, relevant computer hardware, and artificial intelligence. This work facilitates the cross-use terms from the various contributing sub-areas of information science. With definitions of one-thousand terms, in alphabetical order, the volume provides a unified, integrated, and concise guide to the field. Each term is annotated by one or more references to the literature. Where possible, the first reference directs the user to a basic or seminal discussion of the term and subsequent references show its usage in an information science-related application. This work will be an indispensable reference for students, researchers, and professionals. Contains one-thousand entries and more than 100 illustrations and tables Many entries include enough information (examples, diagrams, and formulas) to allow the reader to make use of the term, model, or algorithm in his or her own application An extensive bibliography (more than 300 references) guides the reader to the details of concepts described in the guide--nearly every entry is annotated by one or more references, both to seminal or basic discussions of the concept and to works that demonstrate its usage in an information science-related application Each term is followed by a number "key" into the detailed subject outlines at the back of the book, so that each item is given a context within a subject area Entries focus on fundamental concepts, rather that specific technologies

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dictionary contains 13,000 terms with more than 4,000 cross-references used in the following fields: automation, technology of management and regulation, computing machine and data processing, computer control, automation of industry, laser technology, theory of information and theory of signals, theory of algorithms and programming, philosophical bases of cybernetics, cybernetics and mathematical methods. Automation pertains to the theory, art, or technique of making a machine, a process or a device more fully automatic. Computers and information processing equipment play a large role in the automation of a process because of the inherent ability of a computer to develop decision that will, in effect, control or govern the process from the information received by the computer concerning the status of the process. Thus automation pertains to both the theory, and techniques of using automatic systems in industrial applications and the processes of investigation, design and conversion to automatic methods. Automatic control, automatic materials handling, automatic testing, automatic packaging, for continuous as well as batch processing, are all considered parts of the overall or completely automatic process. The Dictionary consists of two parts, Basic Table and Indexes. In the first part the English terms are listed alphabetically, numbered consecutively and followed by its German, French and Russian equivalents. English synonyms appear as cross-references to the main entries in their proper alphabetical order. The second part of the Dictionary, the Indexes, contains separate alphabetical indexes of the German, French and Russian terms. The reference number(s) with each term stands for the number of the English term(s) in the basic table. Elsevier's Dictionary of Automatic Technics will be a valuable tool for specialists, scientists, students and everyone who takes interest in the problems of investigation devoted to the design, development, and applications of methods and techniques for rendering a process of group of machines self-actuating, self-moving, or self-controlling.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 1134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hardbound. This dictionary includes terms from all fields of technology plus terms from such fields of science as economics, law, mathematics, social sciences, medicine, informatics and cybernetics. All terms of economics, finance, law and social sciences which have emerged in the Russian language since 1990 are included. The aim of the dictionary is to serve the needs of translators and scientists, resulting from the growing trend of interdisciplinariness in sciences today, which involves the use of terms common to many fields of science, not included in specialized dictionaries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dictionary was produced in response to the rapidly increasing amount of quasi-industrial jargon in the field of information technology, compounded by the fact that these somewhat esoteric terms are often further reduced to acronyms and abbreviations that are seldom explained. Even when they are defined, individual interpretations continue to diverge. Until now the codes have been reproduced in separate (language) publications: there is no universal listing in alphabetical order that covers the English, French, Spanish and German languages. This dictionary sets out the English, French, Spanish and German alternatives as a single, merge-sorted whole. Today, most of the codes have passed into the public domain, simply because they exist in most of the telecommunications systems installed throughout the developed (and developing) world and are largely known to most of those who work in that particular area. However, foreign variants often defy even the most astute observer. This dictionary seeks to clarify this bewildering situation as much as possible. The 26,000 definitions set out here, drawn from some 16,000 individual cybernyms, cover computing, electronics, telecommunications (including intelligent networks and mobile telephony), together with satellite technology and Internet/Web terminology. Annex I lists some of the innumerable file types found in the filing systems of computers using powerful desktop managers and Annex II lists the abbreviations of country names found in universal resource locators (URL). Elsevier's Dictionary of Cybernyms is a useful tool for translators, students, universities and computer enthusiasts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide range of technological and scientific fields is covered by this dictionary. It presents terminology in areas ranging from mechanical engineering via coal and steel, transport and transportation technology, and construction engineering, through to surveying and information technology and electronics. The basic knowledge of natural sciences has been incorporated to facilitate the comprehension of technical processes. The dictionary contains approximately 57,000 headwords assembling the basic lexical items of different branches combined with a reasonable depth in specific subjects.The dictionary addresses users/experts in sciences and technologies, translators/interpreters of language for special purposes (LSP), terminologists and technical writers. Actual advantages of the dictionary are given in those fields depending on current events as, for example, data processing and automotive engineering.Experts in technological and scientific fields and linguists with technological backgrounds cooperated in the preparation of the dictionary. European Portuguese forms the basis of the edited material - a clear advantage for its use in the European Union. Nevertheless, the dictionary also satisfies the requirements of Brazilian Portuguese.
