noun
truncated representation
Computing term for a shortened or abbreviated representation of data, often used in contexts like file paths, strings, or identifiers where a full form is cut off.
ファイル名が長すぎると、上位省略表記で表示されることがある。
When a file name is too long, it may be displayed in a truncated representation.
Compound of 上位 (じょうい, 'upper' or 'higher-order') + 省略 (しょうりゃく, 'omission' or 'abbreviation') + 表記 (ひょうき, 'notation' or 'representation'). The exact historical derivation is uncertain; the term is a technical coinage in computing.
