    Abstract
    The entries, in alphabetical order, cover people, organizations, and technology, including terms and their concepts as having become known up to April 1993. The dictionary contains very short and very long entries, some of them are repeated in different combinations, such as 'Artificial intelligence (AI)' which is combines in separate entries with - expert systems - history - inference - information retrieval applications - knowledge bases - natural language - shells and chaining - software and hardware trends - vision systems. There is no entry for 'index', however many for 'indexing' (7 columns for the concept as such) and combinations, such as Indexing - automatic, - coordinate indexing, - online systems, - system performance, exhaustivity and specifity, - system performance, recall and prescision, - thesauri. Some 5.000 terms, including abbreviations are related to their concepts and are explained and described

    Abstract
    Discusses the development of systems designed to improve methods of teaching and learning in schools, colleges and universities, an area currently receiving substantial funding in many countries. Outlines the history of early 'teaching machines' to the 1986 Domesday project and the multimedia hardware and softwware today, focusing on current UK, US and European software developemnt support projects. Reviews the literature on multimedia learning, identifying 2 key difficulties to be overcome; in the area of assessment methods, and the need for a better understanding of the nature of learning and system requirements

    Abstract
    Explains how computers encode images covering resolution, storage capacity and screen fill rate. Describes image processing by Photoshop software, content recognition and Kodak Photo-CD. Discusses major image indexing projects covering those of the Library of Congress, the Art and Architecture Thesaurus, the BBC's TELCLASS and the ICONCLASS thesaurus based systems. Technology is likely to develop faster than indexing techniques

    Abstract
    Discusses articles in which indexing of image collections receives virtually no mention and continues with comments about articles in which indexing receives special attention. Describes four major indexing systems: Library of Congress, AAT, ICONCLASS and TELCLASS. Discusses new indexing approaches where the use of descriptive words is being replaced by other methods of retrieval. Describes indexing by content (attempting to match an input image to a database collection) and by using a visual thesaurus. Raises questions about indexing for various kinds of collections and discusses indexing philosophy

    Abstract
    Discusses some aspects of the management of image collections in electronic form. Looks at developments in the UK higher education sector and acquisitions of large picture collections by commercial interests. Considers the indexing and retrieval problems posed by images, particularly in the art field, where a picture may contain hundreds of objects that could conceivably be referenced, and possible solutions being examined, such as the computer matching of shapes

    Abstract
    Describes image processing (operations which modify an image e.g. by electronic cleaning of enhancement) and picture management (storage and arrangement of pictures for retrieval from a database). Discusses storage, telecommunications and response time, retrieval languages and querying by content

    Abstract
    Mark Twain described a Classic as 'something that everyone wants to have read and nobody wants to read'. Several of the items in one table may well be in that category, but I must admit that this is an idiosyncratic selection because many of the publications are simply those which interested me and may interest you in the unlikely effect that you have the same interests, prejudices, and peculiar characteristics as myself. Donot, therefore, be surprised if you cannot work out why some of them were included

    Abstract
    Discusses whether Kondratieff's theories of economic cycles could be applied to the advent of information relation industries, and if patterns can be determined within the growth of technologies. Points out that previous futurologists did not foresee the revolution in communications which has dramatically altered the patterns in the IT arena, making it even more difficult now to forecast what might happen in 20 years time
