It's the process of "resing-up" an image to a resolution suitable for printing. It adds no extra *information*, but it eliminates distracting pixellation artefacts from the printed photo.
Or so I assume - they're not my images, after all :-)
Sounds about right to me.
Actally, I think what Mishka was driving at was that there seem to be a lot of people out there who don't understand this, i.e. who do seem to think that they get extra information from these processes.
