Data has physical meaning. This statement is particularly applicable to the architecture of computers or network of computers. The speed of how data can be transferred and the ways how data are being represented determines the boundary of how data could affect the physical world. The intentional act to organize information processing tools, either by human organization or by machine architecture, are considered to be a way to assign physical meaning to data.
Historical Document
The first and foremost important document that stated this idea can be associated to Moore's Law[1].
