Introduction to the Revised Edition

Chances are that you use at least one computer or computer-
related device on a daily basis. Some are obvious:
for example, the personal computer on your desk or at
your school, the laptop, the PDA that may be in your briefcase.
Other devices may be a bit less obvious: the “smart”
cell phone, the iPod, a digital camera, and other essentially
specialized computers, communications systems, and data
storage systems. Finally, there are the “hidden” computers
found in so many of today’s consumer products—such as
the ones that provide stability control, braking assistance,
and navigation in newer cars.
Computers not only seem to be everywhere, but also
are part of so many activities of daily life. They bring
together willing sellers and buyers on eBay, allow you
to buy a book with a click on the Amazon.com Web site,
and of course put a vast library of information (of varying
quality) at your fingertips via the World Wide Web.
Behind the scenes, inventory and payroll systems keep
businesses running, track shipments, and more problematically,
keep track of where people go and what they
buy. Indeed, the infrastructure of modern society, from
water treatment plants to power grids to air-traffic control,
depends on complex software and systems.
Modern science would be inconceivable without computers
to gather data and run models and simulations.
Whether bringing back pictures of the surface of Mars or
detailed images to guide brain surgeons, computers have
greatly extended our knowledge of the world around us and
our ability to turn ideas into engineering reality.
The revised edition of the Facts On File Encyclopedia of
Computer Science and Technology provides overviews and
important facts about these and dozens of other applications
of computer technology. There are also many entries
dealing with the fundamental concepts underlying computer
design and programming, the Internet, and other
topics such as the economic and social impacts of the information
society.
The book’s philosophy is that because computer technology
is now inextricably woven into our everyday lives,
anyone seeking to understand its impact must not only
know how the bits flow, but also how the industry works
and where it may be going in the years to come.
