Об эпонимах в терминологии инфокоммуникаций и радиотехнологий

Abstract

Eponimy problems in terminology of infocommunications and radio technologies are considered for the first time. Consideration of a linguistic aspect includes the analysis of 169 domestic publications in 27 directions of researches and allocation of medicine as a direction which concerns nearly half of all publications. It is supposed that the use of the term "eponym" became widely used by linguists in the last third or a quarter of the 20th century, as they adapted existing practices to assign personal names existing in medicine to a wide range of medical terms. Two types of dictionaries of the medical terms-eponyms differing in volume and structure are considered and analyzed. 64 eponyms-anthroponyms and one eponym-toponym are allocated from the standard programs of the speciality "Radio Engineering" (1984 version) as an example. The full name of the researcher, years of life, the country and disciplines using eponyms are established for eponyms-anthroponyms. It is established that the main "supplying countries" of eponyms-anthroponyms are the USA - 18, Great Britain - 11, France - 11, Germany - 10 and Russia - 6 eponyms. Drawn conclusions prove the need of continuation of researches in order to include: preparation of separate publications concerning forgotten or underexplored personalia, and preparation of the dictionary, which glossary has to correspond to modern programs of training of specialists. Results of such researches will promote formation of such competences as ability validly and delicately use historical heritage and ability to carry out the activity on the basis of complete system scientific outlook with use of knowledge in the field of history of science and equipment.
