dato
attribute value ; data element ; data item ; datum [data, -pl.] ; fact ; value ; piece of information.
Others have used possibility distributions for representing fuzzily known or incompletely known attribute values.
The Working Group undertook to determine from the data available what data elements should be included for each type of authority.
Information is held in files or databases, which are comprise of records, which in turn are comprised of fields or data items, which again may be comprised of subfields or data elements.
Thus, having entered the authority datum correctly once, we could be sure that no matter how many bibliographic records used it they would all do so with mechanical consistency.
Other data bases, which may be described as non-bibliographic, and are sometimes known as data banks, store actual facts and figures and text.
A good initial value for this field will start the system off with a good guess so that claims for missing issues are not unreasonable at the beginning.
On other occasions a user wants every document or piece of information on a topic traced, and then high recall must be sought, to the detriment of precision.

data collecting
Professionals need to be shown that with the increasing use of computers, data collection need not be expensive: an automated circulation system, for example, will readily generate information for modifying acquisition policy.
This article is an overview of current data gathering and analytical techniques for author cocitation analysis.
Distinctions between scientific research and its relatives (demonstration and development, service/consultation studies, and fact-gathering) could be made through a careful analysis of each study's proposal and/or completed report.
The reporting period for this survey is 1 July 77-30 June 79, during which 92 projects were identified.
In any case, systematic data collecting is necessary though it can be simplified by a good specification which limits the period covered.
salida de datos
output
The output from a post-co-ordinate index depends both on the input to the system, and the physical nature of the store.
sistema de proceso de datos
data processing system
This article describes IBM's new ImagePlus family of electronic document management systems which allow users to add imaging to data processing systems.

Sound quality and download times are also compared.
The author investigates whether the latency between requesting a Web page and receiving it influence user perceptions of the page.
tráfico de datos de un modo intermitente
bursty traffic
This article describes a mechanism that regulates access of bursty traffic to a LAN.
transformación de datos [Trasvase de información de un soporte a otro según unas reglas y sin pérdida significativa de información]

transmisión de datos [En tecnología de la información, envío de información de un ordenador a otro por medio de una canal de comunicación] [En tecnología de la información, envío de información de un ordenador a otro por medio de una canal de comunicación]
data-flow
data transfer
data transmission
A new set of recommendations has been recently put forward for data-flow control along public data networks.
The parties involved in this venture found it necessary to rationalise the technology for data capture and data transfer.
There are two forms of data transmission: (a) asynchronous transmission (in which the transmitting and receiving devices are not in step); (b) synchronous transmission (in which the transmitting and receiving devices are in step).
tratamiento de datos
transaction processing
The role of computer-based information systems has evolved from focusing on data (transaction processing systems) and information (management information systems) to focusing on decision (decision support systems) and coordination (distributed decision-making systems).
unidad de datos
unit of data
The separating character in a bibliographic record is a control character used to separate and qualify units of data logically, and in some cases hierarchically.
verificación de los datos
fact checking
Compiling so much information didn't leave much time for fact checking, and Pliny verified little of what he wrote.
vía de transmisión de datos
data pathway
pathway
This may provide an alternative data pathway to the traditional telephone network.
A backbone is a high-speed line or series of connections that forms a major pathway within a network.
