Q

search engines

A

program that searches web for specified keywords + returns list of web pages that match criteria

17
Q

lossy compression

A

reduces no. of bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy

18
Q

lossless

A

no info lost
size of og file and restored file are same

19
Q

what is quality of sound dependent on

A

sample rate - no. of audio samples captured every second
bit depth- no. of bits available
for each clip
bit rate - no. of bits used per second of audio

20
Q

download

A

receiving data from central server to users computer
copy of file saved to storage location on your computer
can be viewed offline

21
Q

streaming

A

delivering data continuously from internet in real time
video audio files played as opened on computer
not saved on computer
sometimes small wait (buffering) is necessary before file plays
requires internet connection

22
Q

VOD/AVOD

A

video on demand
audio and video on demand
systems which allow user to select and watch/listen to video or audio content whenever they desire
stream programs to device so broadcast in real time orrr download it to view later

23
Q

VoIP

A

voice over internet protocol
communication protocols, technologies,methodologies and transmission methods involved in delivering voice and multimedia data using IP networks (eg internet)
skype,discord,zoom- VoIP apps - can bypass traditional phone systems

24
Q

A

podcast - series of on demand digital audio files accessible online but can be downloaded
content communicated directly to you

25
Q

mp3 compression

A

uncompressed audio files - high quality WAV or AIFF up to 30mb
compressed - MP3 w 3mb w minimal loss of quality
compression removes frequencies we cannot hear

26
Q

media compression

A

encoding the data so that it can be transferred or stored using fewer bits than it originally contained

27
Q

data compression

A

process of reducing the size of a data file

28
Q

lossy compression

A

reduces number of bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy
eg. jpeg
- rounds off less important visual info, trade off between info lost and size reduction

29
Q

lossless compression

A

no info is lost in lossless compression, size of original file and restored file are the same

30
Q

quality of sound

A

sample rate - no. of audio samples captured every second (more samples taken, higher quality audio )
bit depth - no. of bits available for each clip (more bits, higher quality the audio)
bit rate- no. of bits used per second of audio (the lower the bit rate, the more info the encoder will discard when compressing the file)
