Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000608

The set of operations and hardware that facilitate communication between a computer's core processing components and external entities. Input/Output (I/O) encompasses receiving data from peripherals like keyboards and mice, and sending data to devices such as monitors and printers. The speed of I/O operations, measured in bytes per second, is a key factor in overall system performance, particularly for tasks involving large files or network traffic.
