In addition to the original sense of the word, there are also the following:
- In computer jargon, an icon is a tiny, clickable picture used to provide a startup link to a program or a file.
- The Icon programming language.
- In linguistics iconicity concerns "iconic principles".
An example of a Russian Orthodox IconIn religious art, an icon (also spelled ikon, from the Greek word eikon, which means "image") is an artistic representation or symbol of anything considered holy and divine, such as paintings (including relief paintings), sculpture, or mosaics, sometimes quite small in size, generally regarded by their users as a physical manifestations of the thing represented. Icons are used particularly in Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Eastern-rite Catholic churches and places of worship. In such use, they are typically paintings on wood. Many religious homes in Russia, for example, have icons hanging on the wall. There is a rich history and rich patterns of religious symbolism associated with icons. The Orthodox sometimes call them "windows into heaven". In Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Eastern-rite Catholic churches, the nave is typically separated from the sanctuary by a wall of icons called an iconostasis.
In practice, icons are often illuminated with a candle or jar of oil with a wick. (Beeswax for candles and olive oil for oil lamps are preferred because they burn very cleanly.) Besides the practical purpose of making them visible in an otherwise dark church in the days before electricity, this symbolically indicates that the saint(s) depicted are illuminated by the Christ, the Light of the World. Orthodox Christians venerate or show honor and respect for icons in a variety of ways, in order to show honor and respect for the people and events depicted. They do not worship icons, for worship of icons was forbidden by the same council that defended their use, the Second Council of Nicaea (also known as the Seventh Ecumenical Council). By venerating icons, Orthodox Christians acknowledge that matter is not inherently evil, but can be used by God. St. John of Damascus observed that iconoclasts who attacked the use of icons often found themselves denying the goodness of matter to such an extent, that they wound up doubting the real incarnation of Jesus Christ as fully human, or that he was resurrected with a real physical body.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
A computer icon is a small graphic, usually ranging from 16 pixels by 16 pixels to upto 128 pixels by 128 pixels, which represents a file, folder, application or device on a computer system. Icons were first developed as a tool for making computer interfaces easier for novices to grasp in the 1970s at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center facility. Icon-driven interfaces were later popularized by the Apple Macintosh and Microsoft Windows operating environments.Icons may also be found on the toolbars and in the menus of programs such as Microsoft Word.
Virtually every major computer operating system now uses icon-based GUIs to display information to end users.
Function or program icons
Most computer functions in a Graphic User Interface (GUI) are represented by a function icon. Placing the cursor on the icon, and clicking a mouse (or trackball or other) button usually starts the function or program.
The creation of a good function icon can be considered as an art form in itself, comparable to that practiced in the past in the domain of miniature painting by old masters such as Joseph Severn and Charles-Francois Daubigny.
The icon must be original, distinctive, and tiny and it must be useful on a wide variety of monitors set at different resolutions. This work is further complicated by the need to create several sets of function icons for several types of views in several types of operating systems, for any given program. For instance, the GUI guidelines in one operating system might specify the need to create sets of 16, 32, and 48 pixel icons for any program while the GUI guidelines in another system might specify sets of 16, 24, 48 and 96 pixel icons for any program.
Document icons
In certain views of folders or directories in a Graphic User Interface (GUI) all the documents or files are represented as icons, in addition to their file name and, in certain cases, other details. In most systems and for most files these icons are generic images, representing the program used to create the file, or the file type. In this case, the comments made in the previous paragraph concerning the icon as an art form also apply to file icons.
In the case of graphic files most modern systems replace the generic icon with a reduced image of the graphic. This reduced image usually fits into a 128 by 128 or a 117 by 117 pixel box, depending on the operating system used. It is available in a "thumbnail view" or within some other specialized viewing area on the screen.
The most recent systems and the most recent applications often generate such reduced images from other types of files in programs which have not been traditionally viewed as "graphic", such as word processor software or business presentation programs such as Agnubis, Impress, or PowerPoint.

The Icon programming language is a high level language with goal directed execution features and good facilities for managing strings and structures; it has inherited properties from SNOBOL (a string processing language).The definitive work is The Icon Programming Language (third edition) by Griswold and Griswold, ISBN 1-57398-001-3.
The programming language Unicon descended from Icon.

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
The ICON was a computer built specifically for use in schools, to fill a standard created by the Ontario education ministry. They were found widely in Ontario high schools in the mid- to late 1980s, but disappeared after that time with the widespread introduction of PCss and Apple Macintoshes. They were also known as the CEMCorp ICON, Burroughs ICON, and finally Unisys ICON as the design moved from company to company through the development process. To its users, the machine was known as the bionic beaver.
History
By the mid-1980s most high schools had computer labs of one sort or another, typically using Apple IIs or Commodore PETs. The Apple was chosen primarily due to its color graphics and wide availability of educational software, while the PET's all-in-one metal construction and "networkable" floppy disk system had obvious advantages in a classroom setting. However it was not too uncommon to find a whole range of other machines in the business classrooms, including various CP/M boxes.
At about this time the Ontario ministry of education decided to attempt to standardize their recommended machine in order to reduce maintenance costs. They eventually settled on a selection of features that they felt would be the minimum required of a classroom computer, a PET-like all-in-one box with color graphics, a "real" networked drive system (including a hard drive) and a trackball for mouse-like pointing support.
In response, Robert Arn set up CEMCorp, the Canadian Educational Microprocessors Corporation, to design and build such a machine. The basic ICON design was completed using off the shelf parts, and had reached "beta quality" after just over a year. At this point Burroughs Canada was brought in to produce them. It wasn't long after this that Sperry and Burroughs merged to form Unisys.
Nevertheless the machine was deployed widely in Ontario schools starting in 1984. As a school machine it was almost ideal, but the software suite available for it was never up to desired standards. Some programming classes disregarded the ICON due to its "odd" Unix-like nature; machines like the PET booted directly into the BASIC programming language, which is where most instructors wanted to end up anyway. Other teachers used its Pascal programming language implementation (by Watcom), while the more adventerous took advantage of the included C compiler. The ICON also found a wide following in the newly evolving "computer use" classes, where they were used to teach word proccessing and spreadsheets; this was frequently via the "QDOS" that allowed ICONs to run MS-DOS while making use of available networked storage.
Around 1985 the ICON became the focus of a huge political debate in Ontario. In order to be able to afford what was a very advanced machine for its era, the Ministry had to give out huge subsidies; they paid $2,500 for them, and sold them back to the schools for $900. Hosts of computer-illiterate politicials and reporters complained loudly about how you could by other machines for half the cost, and eventually that IBM's new 286-based PC-AT could replace them outright. The problems became so bad that even the most ardent supporters of the system eventually gave up the fight. Around this time other platforms, such as the Waterloo PORT system produced by Waterloo Microsystems, gained approval for the government support that had originally been the province only of the ICON.
Description
The ICON systems were based on a workstation/file server model, with no storage local to the workstations. Both the workstations and the servers were similar internally, based on Intel 80186 microprocessors, and connected to each other using ARCNET. Several upgrades were introduced into the ICON line over time. The ICON2 sported a redesigned case with detachable keyboard as well as expanded RAM and facilities for an internal hard disk. The CPU was upgraded to the 386 in the Series III, while an "ICON-on-a-card" for PCs also appeared.
The original ICON workstations were housed in a large wedge-shaped desktop case, with a full-sized keyboard mounted slightly left-of-center and a trackball mounted to the right. A rubber bumper-strip ran along the front edge, a precaution against a particular type of cut users sometimes got from the PET's sharp case. The EGA monitor was mounted on top of a tilt-and-swivel mount, a welcome improvement on the PET. It also included TI's voice synthesizer, originally designed for the TI-99, and would speak the rather confusing phrase "dhtick" when starting up. Early machines were all black, but most examples in the classroom were a more nondescript beige.
The fileserver, sometimes referred to as the LexICON, was a simple box with an internal 10MB hard drive and a floppy drive opening to the front. Later Lexicons included a 64MB hard disk, divided into two partitions. Unlike the PET's floppy system, however, users of the ICON needed to employ what were considered rather "arcane" commands to copy data to the floppy from its "natural" location in the user's home directory.
Both machines ran the Unix-like QNX as their operating system, the basic portions of it embedded in ROM. To this, they added a GKS-based graphics system, which was intended to be used with the trackball to make interactive programs. The system did not include a usable GUI (even though something called the "House" was present from at least QNX 2.0.1), although one was built at least to the prototype stage by Helicon Systems in Toronto and appeared in one form as Ambience, though its capabilities were limited. A later upgrade called ICONLook improved upon this greatly but it was apparently too slow to use realistically. Helicon Systems also produced a MIDI interface for the original ICON.
The biggest problem for the machine was a lack of software. The various Watcom programming languages were quickly ported to the system, but beyond that, the educational software teachers expected were few and far between. The Ministry contracted for a number of applications, but the small target market and the sometimes-difficult procedure required to secure such contracts were significant obstacles for realistic commercial development.
