The width of a data bus and the amount of data it can physically carry. It relates to how much data a computer can transfer within itself. A simple way of thinking of it is like a motorway. The more lanes there are on the motorway, the more cars can travel on it. A bus in a computer consists of lines of data being transferred around, so the more that can be carried, the faster your computer will go.
