umbrella term
(redirected from Umbrella name)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.02 sec.

umbrella term

A term used to cover a broad category of functions rather than one specific item. In many cases, a term is so catchy that it tends to be used for technologies that are a stretch from the original concept. Examples include "middleware," "virtual" and "Web 2.0" (see middleware, virtual and Web 2.0).
