CIMM DEFINITION: The sharpness or clarity of a graphic image, video or other piece of content or equipment such as a monitor or printer usually expressed in terms of number of dots per inch (pixels).

2: Though technically inaccurate, the term resolution in the world of mobile phone displays and digital cameras refers to the number of columns and rows of pixels. A display with 240 pixel columns and 320 pixel rows would generally be said to have a resolution of 240×320. Resolution can also be used to refer to the total number of pixels in a digital camera image. (Source: www.Mobileburn.com)
