Assessing the most valuable technology for an organization is becoming
a growing challenge for business professionals confronted with an
expanding array of options. This book is an A-Z compendium of
technological terms written for the non-technical executive, allowing
quick identification of what the term is and why it is significant.
This is more than a dictionary - it is a concise review of the most
important aspects of information technology from a business
perspective: the major advantages, disadvantages and business value
propositions of each term are discussed, as well as sources for further
reading, and cross-referencing with other terms where applicable. The
essential elements of each concept are covered in a succinct manner so
the reader can quickly obtain the required knowledge without wading
through exhaustive descriptions. With over 200 terms, this is a
valuable reference for non- and semi-technical managers, executives and
graduate students in business and technology management.
