The Third Edition of the Computing Handbook Set, edited by Professor Teo Gonzalez and colleagues, has just been published by Chapman&Hall/CRC. The two-volume handbook contains 3816 pages.

The handbook is a Comprehensive Reference on Computer Science, Information Systems, Information Technology, and Software Engineering. This renamed and expanded two volume set (previously the Computer Science Handbook) provides up-to-date information on a wide range of topics in computer science, information systems, information technology, and software engineering. The third edition of this popular handbook addresses not only the dramatic growth of computing as a discipline but also the relatively new delineation of computing as a family of separate disciplines as described by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), the IEEE Computer Society (IEEE-CS), and the Association for Information Systems (AIS).

Both volumes in the set describe the research generated at laboratories, educational institutions, and public and private organizations to advance the effective development and use of computers and computing in today’s world. Research-level survey articles provide deep insights into the computing discipline, enabling readers to understand the principles and practices that drive computing education, research, and development in the twenty-first century.
