Digital Revolution - ANS-is an ongoing process of social, political, and economic change brought about by digital technology, such as microchips, computers, and the Internet. Convergence - ANS-The ... expansion of cloud computing , a process by which several technologies with distinct functionalities evolve to form a single product. Your computer plays movies. Your cell phone has a camera. Your clock has a radio. The Web - ANS-is a collection of linked documents, graphics, and audio that can be accessed over the Internet. Cloud Computing - ANS-which provided access to information, applications, communications, and storage over the Internet. Digital data - ANS-Text, numbers, graphics, or sound represented by discrete digits, such as 1s and 0s. Analog Data - ANS-Data that is measured or represented on a continuously varying scale, such as a dimmer switch or a watch with a sweep second hand. Digitization - ANS-Converting non-digital information or media to a digital format through the use of a scanner, sampler, or other input device.

High compression ratios such as 35:1 indicate more compression so data can be contained in smaller files. Lossy - ANS-Any data compression technique in which some of the data is sacrificed to obtain more compression. Lossless - ANS-A compression technique that is able to reconstitute all of the data in the original file; hence lossless means that this compression technique does not lose data. Image Resolution - ANS-The number of pixels in an image, usually expressed as horizontal pixels × vertical pixels. Aspect Ratio - ANS-The ratio of the width and height of an image or display screen. Pixel Interpolation - ANS-A process that is used by graphics software to average the color of adjacent pixels in an image, usually when the image is enlarged.
