Data Processing by Application Type
Data Processing by Application Type
application type
Scientific data processing
Scientific data is a special type of data
processing that academic and research fields
It needs to draw conclusions, so the steps of
sorting and summarization often need to be
performed Very carefully, using a wide variety
of processing tools to ensure no selection
biases or wrong relationships are produced.
2. Commercial data processing
Commercial data processing has multiple
uses, and may not necessarily require
complex sorting.
It was first used widely in the field of
marketing, for customer relationship
management applications, and in banking,
billing and payroll functions.
3. Automatic versus manual data
processing
Book keeping data processing functions can be
performed from a ledger, customer surveys may
be manually collected and processed, and even
spread sheet based data processing is now
considered some what manual
Autonomous databases now look to be a data
processing Method of the future, especially in the
commercial data processing
Ex: oracle, peloton
Batch processing
Batch processing completed a range of data
processes as a batchsimplifying single
commands to provide actions to multiple data
sets.
This is particularly useful in financial
applications or where data requires additional
layers of security, such as medical records.
Real time data processing
For commercial users, many large data
processing applications require real time
processing.
Data on airline schedules and ticketing and
GPS tracking applications in transport services
have similar need for real time updates.
Online processing
This data processing technique is derived from
automatic data processing
This technique is now known as immediate or
irregular access handling
This processing method highlights the fast
contribution of the exchange of data and
connects directly with the databases
Multiprocessing
The tasks are broken down into frames and
then sent to the multiprocesses for processing.
The additional benefit is every processing unit
is independent this failure of any will not
impact the working of other processing units
Time sharing
This kind of data processing is entirely based
on time.
In this one unit of processing data is used by
several users.
Each user is allocated with the set timings on
which they need to work on the same
CPU/processing unit
