Recension empirique d'acronymes rencontrés dans la littérature, la presse technico-commerciale
et la documentation en rapport avec la transmission de données. Un intérêt,
parmi d'autres, de cette liste, de plus de 3900 sigles (et 6000 significations), est de
signaler les sens multiples et non toujours connus de tant d'acronymes...
(ABS, ARC, ATM, MAC, NCSA, PPM, RMS, RPG, WASP... cgs ;-)
alors qu'un moteur de recherche vous égare parmi des clubs sportifs ou des sociétés diverses.
Il existe de nombreux serveurs de recherche d'acronymes, plus ou moins spécialisés,
avec des notices plus ou moins détaillées (mais aucun n'est complet...) :
voir Liste de serveurs.
(et aussi: Acronymes en environnement et gestion de risques).
