A programming technique (or hardware capability) that automatically smoothes jaggy edges, and is often used for making low-resolution images look more attractive. Found on http://videogamecritic.com/glossary.htm
A technique used by art packages to smooth jagged edges in images by mixing it with colours from the background. Found on http://www.amigahistory.co.uk/a.html
A method of reducing or preventing rendering artefacts by using colour information to simulate a higher screen resolution. The term is often applied to the process of softening the unnaturally precise or stepped edges (sometimes known as ‘the jaggies`) created when a computergenerated object is placed against a contrasting background by using...

Blurring the edges of a font on screen to soften the look of bitmapped type. Anti-aliasing is usually desirable at large point sizes (16 points or above). Found on http://www.fontshop.com/glossary/
This is a type of filter used to limit the frequency range of an analogue signal prior to input to an ADC so that the Nyquist Frequency is not compromised and an accurate sample is created. Found on http://www.songstuff.com/glossary/A
A technique where graphics, including text, are made to look smoother and so better looking and easier to read. The intensity of some pixels are adjusted to fool the eye into seeing a smooth line.

In computer graphics, a software technique for diminishing aliasing (`jaggies`) – steplike lines that should be smooth. Jaggies occur because the output device, the monitor or printer, does not have a high enough resolution to represent a smooth line. Anti-aliasing reduces the prominence of jaggies by surrounding the steps with i... Found on https://www.encyclo.co.uk/local/21221
