Definicija: The study of computers, including their design, operation, and use in processing information. Computer science combines both theoretical and practical aspects of engineering, electronics, information theory, mathematics, logic, and human behavior.
Definicija: distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the sources of data. This is expected to improve response times and save bandwidth
Definicija: premakne funkcije obdelave podatkov bližje lokacijam, kjer se ustvarjajo in analizirajo podatki: na robu omrežja. Gre za naslednji razvojni korak, nekakšno evolucijo omrežja, ki dopolnjuje centraliziran računalniški oblak ter uporablja model distribuiranega omrežja

Definicija: use of specialized hardware to dramatically speed up work, often with parallel processing that bundles frequently occurring tasks. It offloads demanding work that can bog down CPUs, processors that typically execute tasks in serial fashion
Definicija: A model of computing whereby client applications running on a desktop or personal computer access information on remote servers or host computers. The client portion of the application is typically optimized for user interaction, whereas the server portion provides centralized, multiuser functionality.
