Riassunto

The Computer Science and Engineering Handbook characterizes the current state of theory and practice in the field. In this single volume you can find quick answers to the questions that affect your work every day. More than 110 chapters describe fundamental principles, "best practices," research horizons, and their impact upon the professions and society. Glossaries of key terms, references, and sources for further information, including key World Wide Web sites, provide you with the most complete information on every topic.
