GLOSSARY FROM TECHNOLOGY AND COMPUTING



1. System
an ordered set of related components, whether they are material or
conceptual elements, endowed with a particular structure,
composition and environment. It is a term that applies to various
areas of knowledge, such as physics, biology and computer
science.

2. Web
is one that consists of an electronic document that contains
information, whose formats are adapted to be inserted in the World
Wide Web, so that users worldwide can enter it through the use of
a browser, viewing it with a mobile device like a smartphone or a
computer monitor.

3. Software
The software can be defined as all those concepts, activities and
procedures that result in the generation of programs for a computer
system. In other words, they are the instructions that have been
predefined by a programmer to execute the tasks indicated.
The software is a set of binary numbers (bits), which makes some
sense for the computer, and is stored in some hardware
(hardware), from where the processor can access, to run or display
it. While hardware is a visible, tangible and easily applicable
computer system, software is a purely conceptual entity: an
intellectual product, this means that hardware is the physical part,
and software is the logical part of the computer.

4. Innovation
It consists of using knowledge to build a new path that leads to a
certain goal. Each innovation process is specific to each case, and
most likely does not serve to address other challenges

5. Programs
The term program refers to an organized plan or project of the
different activities that will be carried out. Also, it is a distribution
system of the different subjects of a course or subject. The
expression word is of Latin origin "programma" which in turn has its
origin in a Greek word.

6. Technology
It is a broad concept that encompasses a set of techniques,
knowledge and processes that serve for the design and
construction of objects to meet human needs.
In society, technology is a consequence of science and
engineering, although many technological advances are prior to
these two concepts.

7. Novelty
It is all fact or circumstance that makes its appearance and that
was absent in the past. In some contexts a novelty can be a very
significant concept. Thus, for example, in economics, there are new
developments in what makes production or the way in which it
takes place that can be of enormous social importance.

8. RAM Memory
It is one of the most important elements of conventional computers
and mobile devices, since the CPU uses it to store the data and
instructions that it is executing at a certain time. Therefore, it acts
temporarily and loses the content when the device is shut down or
restarted, or when it stops using a program.

9. Mother Card
It is the most important component of a computer, this device
works as a platform or main circuit of a computer, integrates and
coordinates all other elements. Motherboard is also called
motherboard, motherboard, motherboard, in English it is known as
motherboard or mainboard. In order for a motherboard to fulfill its
purpose, it has installed a very basic software called BIOS. In
general, it also has slots along with other circuits that allow
connection of communication ports and peripheral devices.

10. Html
It is a markup language that is used for the development of Internet
pages. This is the acronym that corresponds to HyperText Markup
Language, that is, Hypertext Markup Language, which could be
translated as a Document Format Language for Hypertext.

11. Computer Virus
A computer virus is a programmed threat, that is, it is a small
program intentionally written to be installed on a user's computer
without the user's knowledge or permission.

12. Digital
This binary system composed of ones and zeros allows to store,
process and transmit any type of information. It is possible to speak
of combinational digital systems (whose outputs depend on the
state of the inputs at a given moment) and sequential digital
systems (the outputs are also affected by the previous states).

13. Database
A database is a collection of information organized so that a
computer program can quickly select the pieces of data it needs. A
database is an electronic file system. Traditional databases are
organized by fields, records and files

14. Technological Resources
 A resource is a means of any kind that allows to satisfy a need or
achieve what is intended. Technology, for its part, refers to the
theories and techniques that make possible the practical use of
scientific knowledge.

15. Storage
Data storage is the retention of information through the use of
specially developed technology to store that data and keep it as
accessible as possible.
Data storage refers to the use of recording media to preserve data
using PC and other devices. The most frequent forms of data
storage are file storage, block storage and storage of objects, each
of which is suitable for a different purpose.

16. Digital File
The Digital Archive is also called File, it is a unit of data or
information stored in some medium that can be used by computer
applications. ... The digital archive allows all documents used in
administrative actions to be stored electronically.

17. Service
Services are functions performed by people towards other people
in order that they meet the satisfaction of receiving them. The

According to what is described in etymology, an individual is
intelligent when he is able to choose the best option among the
possibilities that are available to solve a problem.

20. Interface
It is known as the user interface to the medium that allows a person
to communicate with a machine. The interface, in this case,
consists of the points of contact between a user and the computer.
In addition to the mentioned mouse example, another interface of
this type is the screen of the monitor or the keyboard.

21. User
A User is a person who uses something for a specific function, it is

unity is symbolized by the number one (1), which comes to
represent the first natural number and from which other natural
numbers are derived or constituted.

23. Hadware
It is the physical part of a computer or computer system, is formed
by electrical, electronic, electromechanical and mechanical
components, such as cable circuits and light circuits, plates,
utensils, chains and any other material, in physical state, that is
necessary to make the equipment work.

24. Computing
 It is synonymous with computing. As such, it refers to the
technology developed for the automatic processing of information
through the use of computers or computers.
In this sense, computing is also an area of ​​knowledge constituted
by disciplines related to science and technology.

25. Cloud
The definition of the cloud may seem unclear, but basically, it is a
term used to describe a global network of servers, each with a
unique function. The cloud is not a physical entity, but a huge
network of remote servers around the world that are connected to
