  2. Information technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_technology

    Information technology (IT) is a set of related fields within information and communications technology (ICT), that encompass computer systems, software, programming languages, data and information processing, and storage. [1] Information technology is an application of computer science and computer engineering.

  3. Data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data

    Beynon-Davies uses the concept of a sign to differentiate between data and information; data is a series of symbols, while information occurs when the symbols are used to refer to something. [11] [12] Before the development of computing devices and machines, people had to manually collect data and impose patterns on it.

  4. Information and communications technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_and...

    Information and communications technology (ICT) is an extensional term for information technology (IT) that stresses the role of unified communications [1] and the integration of telecommunications (telephone lines and wireless signals) and computers, as well as necessary enterprise software, middleware, storage and audiovisual, that enable users to access, store, transmit, understand and ...

  5. In fact, data indicates there will not be an eruption in the coming centuries. [253] The most likely eruption would be hydrothermal rather than volcanic. A caldera -forming volcanic eruption (and subsequent impacts on global weather patterns and agricultural production) is the least likely scenario and has an extremely low likelihood.

  6. Entropy (information theory) - Wikipedia

    Choosing k = n, b 1 = ... = b n = 1 this implies that the entropy of a certain outcome is zero: Η 1 (1) = 0. This implies that the efficiency of a source set with n symbols can be defined simply as being equal to its n-ary entropy. See also Redundancy (information theory).

  7. Health informatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_informatics

    Pathology informatics is a field that involves the use of information technology, computer systems, and data management to support and enhance the practice of pathology. It encompasses pathology laboratory operations, data analysis, and the interpretation of pathology-related information. Key aspects of pathology informatics include:

  8. Data science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_science

    Data science also integrates domain knowledge from the underlying application domain (e.g., natural sciences, information technology, and medicine). [3] Data science is multifaceted and can be described as a science, a research paradigm, a research method, a discipline, a workflow, and a profession. [4] Data science is "a concept to unify ...

  9. Information system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_system

    The first four components (hardware, software, database, and network) make up what is known as the information technology platform. Information technology workers could then use these components to create information systems that watch over safety measures, risk and the management of data. These actions are known as information technology services.
