Chinese-English Glossary of Computer Technology Terms

摘要

The glossary contains computer technology terms which are a part of the Chinese-English Translation Assistance (CETA) Group's computerized files of over 700,000 terms. The dictionary uses traditional Chinese characters rather than the simplified forms used in the People's Republic of China. The reason for this choice is that the method of file management currently used for the CETA group computer-stored dictionaries requires the use of either all traditional characters or all simplified characters. The CETA Group has chosen to print its dictionaries using traditional characters pending development of an efficient method for substitution of simplified forms. The entries in the dictionary have been arranged according to the radical/stroke system. The Pinyin romanization immediately follows the characters for each term.
