Yoshimitsu computer Type of computer manufactured in the early 22nd century (TNG: "Up the Long Ladder").
The Mariposa carried a number of these computers in 2123. Yoshimitsu is most likely just the name of the manufacturer. Yoshimitsu was a Japanese shogun, and later became the name of a character in Tekken (a few years after the Trek episode). It purportedly translates as "good fortune light".
