Javvin News Networking, Internet, Telecom, Wireless, Computer, Hardware and Software - All Dictionaries in One
March 1 , 2007 - Javvin Technologies, Inc. announced the debut of the new title "Network Dictionary". The multiple-dictionaries in one book is designed to help computer networking and telecom professionals and students to navigate the computing and communication technologies and services smoothly.
"The world of networking and telecom is filled up to its neck with a plethora of acronyms, thousands of unique terms and phrases. Trust us, we know. But finally, there's a place where you can find all of these scattered bits and pieces of data, and all under one cover. So, whether you're the biggest technology geek or simply a computer enthusiast, this integral reference tool can help you shed light on the terms that'll pop up in your daily life. " Said Dr. Jielin Dong, Chief editor of the book and the President of Javvin Technologies.
The communications industry is in the process of convergence: data and voice services are provided by one extended network, wireless and wire-line networks are integrated, computers are connected through the big melting pot that is the Internet. So why shouldn't be a technical dictionary to match that convergence of technologies and services? This dictionary includes terms from multiple fields that were separated before. Terms, phrases used across multiple fields can mean many different things. Complicated. We mark every term by its primary fields so that readers can better understand the context and background of the term. Uncomplicated.
The categories used in the book are:
- Networking : includes data networking phrases, pluses terms related to the Internet
- Protocol : includes protocols used and defined in various communications industries
- Security : includes networking, computing and information security related terms
- Telecom : includes terms primarily for traditional voice communication through wire-lines
- Wireless : terms for wireless communications that may be local, fixed, or mobile
- Hardware : terms related to computer and network hardware
- Software: computer software phrases and terms
- Organization : includes government organizations and industrial associations

"It is always a challenge to select the right terms for a dictionary, especially when multiple industries are involved. Old terms become out of date quickly and new terms are invented every day. We tried our best to maintain a balance between thoroughness and size. In this version we included about 11,000 entries. However, the computer, networking and telecom industries are still developing in fast pace. We will make every effort to keep this book accurate and timely. At the same time, we welcome our colleagues and readers to write or suggest new terms for the future editions of this dictionary. As a token of our appreciation, we will send you a copy of the book, if the terms written by you are included in any future edition. " Dr. Dong comment.
