Data Conversion - Data conversion is the conversion of one form of computer data to another--the changing of bits from being in one format to a different one, usually for the purpose of application interoperability or of capability of using new features. At the simplest level, data conversion can be exemplified by conversion of a text file from one character encoding to another. More complex conversions are those of office file formats, and conversions of image and audio file formats.
Examples of these conversions are:
-
EBCDIC to ASCII
-
TIFF to PDF
-
XML to CSV
Media Conversion - Media conversion is converting storage media from one format to another. Usually it ivolves converting magnetic media to optical storage media. The conversion requires the use of different drives and specialized software.
