What is data processing?

► Data processing refers to the manipulation, transformation, and organization


of raw data into meaningful information.
► Data processing includes activities such as collection, storage, retrieval,
sorting, filtering, analysis, and presentation of data.
► It can be done manually or automatically using computers and specialized
software.
Why is data processing
important?
► Decision-making:
► Processed data provides valuable insights that support
decision-making processes in various domains such as business,
healthcare, finance, and research.
► Insights and Analysis:
► Processed data enables organizations to analyze trends, patterns,
and correlations, leading to a better understanding of their
operations, customers, and markets.
► Innovation:
► Processed data fuels innovation by providing insights into emerging
trends, customer demands, and areas for improvement.
► Performance Evaluation:
► Processed data facilitates performance evaluation and monitoring,
enabling organizations to assess their progress towards goals and
make necessary adjustments
What are data processing modes?

► Processing modes refer to the different ways in which computer systems handle
and process data.
There are FOUR (4) MAIN Data Processing Modes:
► Batch Processing
► Online Processing
► Real Time Processing
► Time Sharing
Batch Data Processing

Def: Involves collecting a set of data or tasks and processing them all at once,
typically without user interaction.

Advantages Disadvantages
► Not suitable for time-sensitive
► Efficient for processing large volumes of data. applications.
► Lower resource requirements compared to ► Lack of immediate feedback or
real-time processing. interaction with users.
► Tasks can be scheduled during off-peak ► May result in longer processing times for
hours, optimizing resource utilization urgent tasks.
Online Data Processing
Def: Involves immediate processing of data as it is received once
computers and peripherals are connected to each other or are
“online” (connected to the internet)

Advantages Disadvantages
► Immediate feedback and interaction with ► Higher resource requirements due to
users. concurrent processing.

► Suitable for applications requiring real-time ► Vulnerable to system overload during peak
updates, such as online transactions. usage times.

► Enables dynamic adjustments based on user ► Potential for delays if system is not online.
input.
Real Time Data Processing

Def: Involves processing data immediately upon its arrival, with


minimal delay.

Advantages Disadvantages
► Provides immediate response to critical ► Requires high-performance hardware and
events. software to meet timing constraints.

► Essential for applications requiring precise ► Complex to implement and maintain.


timing, such as control systems. ► Costlier compared to batch or online
► Ensures timely processing of data, minimizing processing solutions.

Time Sharing Data Processing

Def: Involves sharing computing resources (such as CPU time and


memory) among multiple users or processes simultaneously.

Advantages Disadvantages
► Efficient utilization of computing resources by ► Risk of performance degradation if the system
allowing multiple users simultaneous access. is overloaded.

► Provides fair allocation of resources among ► Security concerns related to sharing

► Supports multitasking, enhancing


productivity.
SCENARIOS
Batch, Online , Real Time and Time
Sharing data processing
Batch and Online Data Processing

► Batch:
► Preparation of Payroll
► Preparation of Utility Bills (Water, Electricity)
► Online:
► Printers are online when they are ready to receive data from the computer
to print
► Point of sale terminal at the check-out counter
► Automated Teller Machines (ATMs)
► Playing Games online
Real Time and Time Sharing Data
Processing
► Real Time:
► Predicting a Tropical Depression System
► Flight simulation: it is important that the data reaches the end-user as
quickly as possible
► Flight ticket reservation
► Time Sharing:
► Cloud Computing services utilizes time-sharing principles to efficiently
allocate resources among multiple users
► Mainframe systems have historically supported time-sharing, enabling
multiple users to access the system concurrently through terminals
