 • The word computer comes from the word “compute” which
means, “to calculate”.

COMPUTER
DATA PROCESSING
 DATA
Data is raw, unorganized facts that
need to be processed. Data can be
something simple and seemingly
random and useless until it is
organized.
"Data" comes from a singular Latin
word, datum, which originally meant
"something given." Its early usage
dates back to the 1600s. Over time
"data" has become the plural of datum.
DATA VS INFORMATION
INFORMATION
When data is processed, organized,
structured or presented in a given
context so as to make it useful, it is
called information.
"Information" is an older word that
dates back to the 1300s and has Old
French and Middle English origins. It
has always referred to "the act of
informing, " usually in regard to
education, instruction, or other
knowledge communication.
TURNING DATA INTO INFORMATION
• Computing science deals with the study of both computer hardware and
software design.
• It encompasses both the study of theoretical algorithms and the
practical problems involved in implementing them through computer
hardware and software.
• The study of computer science has many branches, including artificial
intelligence, software engineering, programming and computer graphics.
• The need for computer science as a discipline has
grown as computers become more integrated into
our day-to-day lives and technology continues to
advance.

COMPUTING SCIENCE
 • A business process is an activity or set of activities that can
accomplish a specific organizational goal.
• Business processes should have purposeful goals, be as
specific as possible and have consistent outcomes.

shares and enhances the use of
knowledge in order to improve
organizational performance and
survival in a business environment.
