WHAT IS DATA PROCESSING CYCLE ?

Definition:
The data processing cycle describes the
sequence of steps for converting raw
data into meaningful information.
STAGES OF DATA PROCESSING CYCLE

INPUT STAGE
1. INPUT STAGE :
The input stage is the first stage of data processing cycle
data is collected and entered into the computer.
The input stage includes:
 Data Collection.
 Data Capture.
 Encoding.
 Data Transmission.
 Data Communication.
Data Collection

Data Collection is the stage of gathering data


from the environment and preparing it for
input.
Data Capture

Data Capture is the stage of entering the


collected data into a data processing system
such as computer.
Encoding

Encoding means converting data into


a form that is easier to input into a
data processing system.
Data Transmission

Data Transmission is the stage of sending


input data to the processor and carrying it
across its various components.
Data Communication

Data Communication is the set of


activities that allow data to be send from
one data processing system to another,
PROCESSING STAGE :

2. PROCESSING STAGE :
The Processing Stage is where raw data is
transformed into a meaningful information to be
understood by users.
 For this, Computer Follow instructions called
“PROGRAMS”

 Programs Includes:
OUTPUT STAGE

3. OUTPUT STAGE

The Output Stage is where information


(processed data) is presented to users.
OUTPUT STAGE (Cont..)

 Output Devices:

 Decoding: The information that particular code represents


made available to users.
Example:
PK (Particular Code) = Pakistan (Visible to User)
ENCODING DECODING
STORAGE STAGE

The Storage Stage is where


information is stored so that it can be
used later.
 Information stored for future use.
 Turnaround Document: Processed data
given as output.
 Example:
FORMS OF PROCESSED DATA

1. Sorted Data:
 Data is arranged in a specified order
 Data can be arranged in alphabetical, ascending or
descending order.
 Example:
Spreadsheet’s Data
FORMS OF PROCESSED DATA (Cont..)

2. Grouped Data:
 Similar data items are arranged in groups.
 It makes easy to locate data.

 Example:
FORMS OF PROCESSED DATA (Cont..)

3. Calculations:

 We can add, subtract, multiply and divide data.


 Create graph and charts.
A DATA PROCESSING/ MANUAL
SYSTEM

 Manual System
A manual system is a book keeping system where records are
maintain by hand, without using a computer system.
E.g.
A shopkeeper may record sales using a pen and a register, and each
day he calculates the amount of stock remaining.
A DATA
PROCESSING/COMPUTERIZED
SYSTEM
 Computerized System

A process, or business is one in which the work is done by


computer.

E.g.
A computerized attendance system in an office consists of a
fingerprint reader and a computer. Employees place their fingers on
the reader and their attendance is marked automatically on the
computer. They do not need to sign on a register.
A DATA PROCESSING/INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY

 Information Technology
The use of different manual and computerized devices and methods for processing data is called
Information Technology.
ADVANTAGES OF COMPUTERIZED
SYSTEMS
1. Speed
► Fast processing is a key feature of computerized systems.
► They can process data in seconds.
2. Accuracy
 Accuracy is also a feature of all computerized systems.
 Computers can work with almost 100% accuracy, which is important while
performing huge calculations.
3. Efficiency
 Efficiency is another common feature of computerized systems.
 This results in error-free processing at high speeds.
4. Variety
 Computers have advanced capabilities that enable them to process data.
 Data can be processed and displayed in various ways.
5. Ease of Use
 Computer work according to certain rules and instructions.
6. Capacity
 Computerized systems can perform more calculations and operations than humans
can.
 Produces better and faster results than manual system.
