What’s Ahead? Data Processing As data is in its raw form it cannot solve any problem. The data needs some processing to make it useful. Data processing is the conversion of data into a more useful form. That is, transmission of data into meaningful information is called data processing. Data is processed by either analog or digital computer. Data Vs Information Data Information refer to raw refers to processed materials like data. These data have letters, numbers, undergone operations sounds, images. and can serve as These are facts but input to other they do not subsequent necessarily have meanings. operations. The result obtained by data processing is called information. Electronic Data Processing (EDP) refers to the utilization of computer or information and communications technology (ICT) equipment in the processing, operation, and manipulation of data. Data Processing Cycle Storage and Origination Input Processing Output Feedback 01 02 03 04 05 Data Processing Cycle Origination: The initial capture of raw data as transactions occurs. This stage involves collection, gathering and identifying data. Input: Data are collected and converted into a form acceptable for processing. It involves classifying, summarizing, sorting and coding of data. Processing: This stage refers to the electronic manipulation of data. In this stage, logical or mathematical operations are executed based on the required goals Output: This stage refers to the display of results from the process stage. It involves preparation of processed information into a format acceptable to the user for analysis or as input for a second cycle. Storage and Feedback: Sometimes there is a need to balance and counter check the result of the processes undertaken. As such the actual result is compared with the desired result. This stage also involves retention of the results of processed data for future use or retrieval. How Computer Communicate Human language or Natural language (e.g. English, Filipino, French, etc.) Binary language - computer recognized are 0’s and 1’s. Machine language – a language that computer understand (e.g. assembly language) Computer Number Systems Number Systems – are techniques to represent numbers in the computer system architecture Decimal number system – has ten digits from 0 to 9. Base-10. Binary number system – method of representing numbers that counts by using combinations of two numerals: zero (0) and one (1). With the prefix bi, which means 2. Base-2. Octal number system – Base-8. Has 8 digits from 0 to 7. Hexadecimal number system – Base-16. Has 10-digit number and 6 letters a total of 16 digits to represent its values. Computer Number Systems Source: http://www.brainkart.com/article/Different-Types-of-Number-Systems_33633/ How Computer Interpret Data With the different types of number systems, it is important to understand how computers interpret the letters on the keyboard through a series of 0’s and 1’s. This is normally done through the number system conversion. How Computer Interpret Data ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) TABLE How Computers Communicate with One Another System Bus - is a pathway composed of cables and connectors used to carry data from a computer’s peripheral devices, e.g. monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc., to the CPU and the main memory. Source: https://study.com/academy/lesson/system-bus-in-computers-definition-lesson-quiz.html How Computers Communicate with One Another Control bus – it is used by CPUs to communicate with other devices within the computer system. It carries the signals that control the actions of the computer. Example: A user tries to copy a file from computer to a flash drive that is alread y removed from the computer, the computer will notify the user with an error message saying that the folder or destination drive is no longer in existing.

Example: A computer unit with 6-8 USB ports. The address bus is e responsible for determining which of thng ports has a printer connected to it, alo nd, with the mouse, keyboard, speakers, a sometimes, external drives. Source: https://study.com/academy/lesson/system-bus-in-computers-definition-lesson-quiz.html How Computers Communicate with One Another Data bus – can transfer data to and from the memory of a computer, or into or out of the CPU. Example: File transfer from computer to hard drive. Document sent to the printer.

This interconnection gives these computers the capability to share information and resources. There are several types of networks, mostly depending on the number of computers in it, how they are used, and what type of technology is used in its connectivity. Computer Network System Personal Area Network (PAN) – a type of connection which is often limited to an individual person and his personal devices. Normally, these devices must within the range of 10 meters with each other. An ecosystem, in technology, is a family of devices and services that are all designed to work with one another. Like a real ecosystem, the relationship between these devices makes them stronger than they are on their own. Example: The Apple ecosystem. Computer Network System Local Area Network (LAN) – a connection in which a group of computers and other devices share a common communication. Example: LAN connection on schools. LANs are often found in schools and offices to secure organization’s information. This is done thru computer server in which user’s access may be restricted to avoid unwanted users. Computer Network System Wide Area Network (WAN) – a network that extends over a large geographical area such as state or countries. Example: The internet is one of the biggest WAN in the world. Methods of Communication Wired Communication – Different types of cables are used to connect to a given network. There are coaxial cables, fiber-optic cables, Ethernet cables, and traditional telephone lines.

Reading a long string of 0’s and 1’s can be very confusing and taxing. As such, people who invented the computer identified two areas in computer systems—computer hardware and computer software. Through computer software, humans are able to “communicate” with the computer. Computer Software – a combination of instructions, data, and programs that the computer need in order to do a specific task Programs are set of codes or instructions which are usually designed or written by computer programmers using a specific programming language. How Human Communicate with Computers? Two Types of Computer Software ▪Application Software - A group of related applications programs designed to perform a specific function, e.g. Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop, Google Chrome, etc. ▪System Software – also called operating system (OS). The most important software running in the computer since it manages the computer memory and instructions. Has the ability to control all the connected hardware and installed software applications. How Human Communicate with Computers? Two ways of Person to Computer Interaction ▪By using a command-line operating system (e.g., DOS) in which the computer responds according to the text command that is typed ▪With a graphical user interface (GUI) operating system (e.g., Windows) such as pictures and buttons through mouse clicks and keyboard entries. How Human Communicate with Computers? System Platforms Platform is a group of technologies that are used as a base upon which other applications, processes or technologies are developed. a platform is the basic hardware (computer) and software (operating system) on which software applications can be run. This environment constitutes the basic foundation upon which any application or software is supported and/or developed. How Human Communicate with Computers?
