Data management is a general term that covers a broad range of data applications. It may refer to basic data management concepts or to specific technologies. Some notable applications include 1) data design, 2) data storage, and 3) data security.

Data design, or data architecture, refers to the way data is structured. For example, when creating a file format for an application, the developer must decide how to organize the data in the file. For some applications, it may make sense to store data in a text format, while other programs may benefit from a binary file format. Regardless of what format the developer uses, the data must be organized within the file in a structure that can be recognized by the associated program.

Data storage refers to the many different ways of storing data. This includes hard drives, flash memory, optical media, and temporary RAM storage. When selecting an appropriate data storage medium, concepts such as data access and data integrity are important to consider. For example, data that is accessed and modified on a regular basis should be stored on a hard drive or flash media. This is because these types of media provide quick access and allow the data to be moved or changed. Archived data, on the other hand, may be stored on optical media, such as CDs and DVDs, since the data does not need to be changed. Optical discs also maintain data integrity longer than hard drives, which makes them a good choice for archival purposes.

Data security involves protecting computer data. Many individuals and businesses store valuable data on computer systems. If youve ever felt like your life is stored on your computer, you understand how important data can be. Therefore, it is wise to take steps to protect the privacy and integrity of your data. Some steps include installing a firewall to prevent unauthorized access to your computer and encrypting personal data that is submitted online or shared with other users. It is also important to backup your data so that you will be able to recover your files in case your primary storage device fails.

Stands for Customer Relationship Management. This is a business term that started somewhere in the deep abyss of the IT (Information Technology) world. CRM refers to solutions and strategies for managing businesses relationships with customers. (I suppose thats why they call it customer relationship management). With the advent of Web retailing, companies have found it hard to develop relationships with customers since the e-commerce interface is so impersonal. After all, dont you miss the firm handshake and sparkling smile of the salesperson who just sold you the most expensive computer system in the store? Well, whether or not you miss the personal experience of the retail store, the goal of CRM is to give you that feeling when you buy products over the Internet. When it comes to CRM, customer service is the number one priority. Yes, all companies seem to make that claim, but when online businesses create CRM models, it really is the case.

Computer science is the study of computers and computing concepts. It includes both hardware and software, as well as networking and the Internet.
The hardware aspect of computer science overlaps with electrical engineering. It covers the basic design of computers and the way they work. A fundamental understanding of how a computer computes, or performs calculations, provides the foundation for comprehending more advanced concepts. For example, understanding how a computer operates in binary allows you to understand how computers add, subtract, and perform other operations. Learning about logic gates enables you to make sense of processor architecture.
The software side of computer science covers programming concepts as well as specific programming languages. Programming concepts include functions, algorithms, and source code design. Computer science also covers compilers, operating systems, and software applications. User-focused aspects of computer science include computer graphics and user interface design.
Since nearly all computers are now connected to the Internet, the computer science umbrella covers Internet technologies as well. This includes Internet protocols, telecommunications, and networking concepts. It also involves practical applications, such as web design and network administration.
NOTE: While computer science (lowercase) refers to the general study of computers, Computer Science (capitalized) is an academic major offered at many colleges and universities. It is often abbreviated CS or CompSci. Examples of Computer Science courses include:
Computer Science classes may also be specific to certain industries or topics. Examples include:
Like other educational disciplines, Computer Science courses vary from beginner to advanced. The number of a Computer Science course typically indicates the level of the class. For example, an introductory class may be labeled CS 102, while an advanced class may be labeled CS 431.

A simple definition of this would be the opposite of my bedroom. But technically speaking, a clean room is a highly purified and regulated room for producing equipment sensitive to contamination. For example, the production of microprocessors is done in a clean room, since the smallest amounts of dust could create flaws in their production. Therefore, the air in a clean room is constantly filtered. Other aspects such as temperature, humidity, and pressure may be regulated as well.
Clean rooms are rated by class, according to a Federal standard. A Class 1,000 clean room has no more than 1,000 particles larger than 0.5 microns in a cubic foot of air. A Class 100 clean room has no more than 100 particles. The people who work in clean rooms need to wear special suits that prevent them from contaminating the room. They look almost like astronaut suits, but are not quite as heavy and dont require the large boots for walking on the moon.

Beta software refers to computer software that is undergoing testing and has not yet been officially released. The beta phase follows the alpha phase, but precedes the final version. Some beta software is only made available to a select number of users, while other beta programs are released to the general public.
Software developers release beta versions of software in order to garner useful feedback before releasing the final version of a program. They often provide web forums that allow beta testers to post their feedback and discuss their experience using software. Some beta software programs even have a built-in feedback feature that allows users to submit feature requests or bugs directly to the developer.
In most cases, a software developer will release multiple beta versions of a program during the beta phase. Each version includes updates and bug fixes that have been made in response to user feedback. The beta phase may last anywhere from a few weeks for a small program to several months for a large program.
Each beta version is typically labeled with the final version number followed by a beta version identifier. For example, the fifth beta release of the second version of a software program may have the version number 2.0b5. If a developer prefers not to list the specific version of a beta program, the version number may simply have the term (beta) after the program name, e.g. My New App (beta). This naming convention is commonly used for beta versions of websites or web applications.
Since beta software is a pre-release version of the final application, it may be unstable or lack features that will be be included in the final release. Therefore, beta software often comes with a disclaimer that testers should use the software at their own risk. If you choose to beta test a program, be aware that it may not function as expected.
