Information Technology: An Introduction for Today’s Digital World

Autor Richard Fox
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 aug 2020

This revised edition has more breadth and depth of coverage than the first edition. Information Technology: An Introduction for Today's Digital World introduces undergraduate students to a wide variety of concepts they will encounter throughout their IT studies and careers.

Features:

  • Provides introductory system administration coverage of Windows 10 and Linux (Red Hat 7) as both general concepts and with specific hands-on instruction
  • Includes coverage of programming and shell scripting, demonstrated through example code in several popular languages
  • Presents Updated information on modern IT careers
  • Covers computer networks including more content on cloud computing
  • Contains more coverage of computer security (the original's coverage is largely limited to just one part of one chapter)
  • Ancillary material which includes a lab manual for hands-on exercises

Suitable for any introductory IT course, this classroom-tested text presents many of the topics recommended by the ACM Special Interest Group on IT Education (SIGITE). It offers a far more detailed examination of the computer and the IT field than computer literacy texts, focusing on concepts essential to all IT professionals--from system administration to scripting to computer organization. Four chapters are dedicated to the Windows and Linux operating systems so that students can gain hands-on experience with operating systems that they will deal with.
