ADVANTAGES OF COMPUTER DATA PROCESS

ADVANTAGES OF COMPUTER DATA PROCESSING
Computer-oriented data processing systems or just computer data processing systems are not designed to imitate manual systems. They should combine the capabilities of both humans and computers. Computer data processing systems can be designed to take advantage of four capabilities of computers.
1.Accuracy. Once data have been entered correctly into the computer component of a data processing system, the need for further manipulation by humans is eliminated, and the possi-bility of error is reduced. Computers, when properly pro-grammed, are also unlikely to make computational errors. Of course, computer systems remain vulnerable to the entry by humans of invalid data.
2.Ease of communications. Data, once entered, can be trans-mitted wherever needed by communications networks. These may be either earth or satellite-based systems. A travel reserva¬tions system is an example of a data communications network. Reservation clerks throughout the world may make an enquiry about transportation or lodgings and receive an almost instant response. Another example is an office communications system that provides executives with access to a reservoir of date, called a corporate data base, from their personal microcomputer work stations.
3.Capacity of storage. Computers arc able to store, vast amounts of information, to organize it, and to retrieve it in ways that are far beyond the capabilities of humans. The amount of data that can be stored on devices such as magnetic discs is constantly increasing. All the while, the cost per character of data stored is decreasing.
4.Speed. The speed, at which computer data processing sys-tems can respond, adds to their value. For example, the travel reservations system mentioned above would not be useful if clients had to wait more than a few seconds for a response. The response required might be a fraction of a second.
Thus, an important objective in the design of computer data processing systems is to allow computers to do what they do best and to free humans from routine, error-prone tasks. The most cost-effective computer data processing system is the one that does the job effectively and at the least cost. By using computers in a cost-effective manner, we will be better able to respond to the challenges and opportunities of our post-industrial, information-dependent society.

Компьютеры дуги могут хранить огромные объемы информации, организовать его и получить его в пути, которые выходят далеко за пределы возможностей людей. Постоянно растет объем данных, которые могут храниться на устройствах, таких как магнитные диски. Все время уменьшается стоимость одного символа данных, хранящихся. 4.Speed. Скорость, на каком компьютере может реагировать обработки данных sys-tems, добавляет к их значению. Например система бронирования поездки, упомянутые выше не будет полезно, если клиенты должны были ждать больше, чем несколько секунд для ответа. Требуется ответ может быть доли секунды. Таким образом одной из важных задач в разработке компьютерных систем обработки данных — позволить компьютерам делать то, что они лучше всего и освободить людей от рутины, ошибок задач. Наиболее экономичным компьютерной системы обработки данных является тот, который делает свою работу эффективно и по стоимости наименее. С помощью компьютеров в экономически эффективным образом, мы сможем лучше ответить на вызовы и возможности нашего постиндустриального, зависящих от информации общества.
