Output (as data) is ``data that an information processing
system, or any of its parts, transfers outside of that system or
part'' (ISO/IEC 2382-1 01.01.33). Output (as process) is ``the
process by which an information processing system, or any of its
parts, transfers data outside of that system or part'' (ISO/IEC
2382-1 01.01.34).
pseudo-random number sequence: ``a sequence of numbers that has been
determined by some defined arithmetic process but is effectively a
random number sequence for the purpose for which it is required.''
OO-programming:
Pertaining to a technique or a programming language that supports
objects, classes, and inheritance.
ISO/IEC 2382-15, Information technology
system maintenance: The modification of a system to correct faults, to
improve performance, or to adapt the system to a changed environment or
changed requirements. From ISO/IEC 2382 Part 20
Information: Knowledge that within a certain context has a particular
meaning.
Data: A representation of information in a formalized manner suitable
for communication, interpretation or processing.
Schema: Complete description of the structure of a database pertaining
to a specific level of consideration.
Database schema: A set of schemas for each of the various levels of
consideration.
External level: User-oriented representation of information.
Internal level: Representation of information within a physical
implementation.
Logical level: Data abstract from physical implementation.
Physical level: Physical representation of data structures and mappings
to storage.
Data type: A set of discrete data units sharing a common representation
and operations along with their associated operations.
Field type: A data type considered elementary within a given context.
