  2. Data (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_(computer_science)

    Data exists in three states: data at rest, data in transit and data in use. Data within a computer, in most cases, moves as parallel data. Data moving to or from a computer, in most cases, moves as serial data. Data sourced from an analog device, such as a temperature sensor, may be converted to digital using an analog-to-digital converter.

  6. Data entry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_entry

    Data entry is the process of digitizing data by entering it into a computer system for organization and management purposes. It is a person-based process [ 1 ] and is "one of the important basic" [ 2 ] tasks needed when no machine-readable version of the information is readily available for planned computer-based analysis or processing.

  7. Computer data storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_data_storage

    Computer data storage or digital data storage is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. [1]: 15–16 The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is
