Information Processing Cycle




Information Processing Cycle
Steps Followed To process data
○ Input
○ Processing
○ Storage
○ Output





Input

Input is the raw information entered into a computer from the input devices. It is the collection of letters, numbers, images etc
○ Entering data in to the computer
○ it is performed by input devices
                           




Process

Process Is The Operation Of data as per given instructions. It is totally internal process of the computer system. Modifying an image is processing data.
So no quiestion is that how computer understand & process the data & give us output & information because computer can'not understand our language ?
So suppose that our data is "Anees".Computer is an electronic machine, it has many many circuits built inside it. when you press the key 'A', your keyboard sends a combination of 1s and 0s through a bundle of 7 wires.
Okay now what actually happens when you press the key 'A' ?
What happens is that your computer has a standard code for each character, like 'A', so when you press the key 'A', its standard code '1000001' is sent to the computer by your keyboard. What it does is send electrical current. There are Seven wires for your keyboard. The standard code of 'A' is '1000001'. Your keyboard sends an electrical current through the first wire(that represents 1), then no current at all through the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth wire (which represents 0), and then, an electrical current again through the seventh wire. You've just sent the code of 'A' to your computer. That's how computer process the data and give us out put & meaningfull information.
It is performed by proccessing devices.


   

Output

Output is the processed data given by computer after data processing. Output is also called as Result. We can save these results in the storage devices for the future use.
○ Presenting The result/Information
○ It is performed by output device


       

Storage 

Saving data,Programs,output or information for future use.
○ it is performed by storage devices
