IS-related Activity

There are 4 main information system activities which include input of data, processing of data, and output of information, storage of information and data and control of the system performance. The activity we are going to cover is the processing of data.

Data is typically passes through processing activities which include: calculations, comparisons, sorting, classification and summarization. Through these activities the data is organized into various formats that are presentable and understandable by the users. The users are able to carry out organization, analysis and manipulation of data by using various tools which include statistics tools like MS Excel. Any information system quantifies the maximum allowed data capacity. The data size and quantity must be tracked by continually correcting and updating activities.

An example of IS processing activity:

  1. Data received about league teams information

Team A: 30 players 2 managers and 1 referee

Team B: 28 players 1 manager and 2 referees

Team C: 32 players 2 managers and 1 referee

Team D: 25 players 1 manager and 0 referees

 

  1. Data is added to an excel worksheet.
  2. The data is sorted in numeric order based on the team IDs.

Step 1: Sorting the Data Items using sort and filter function
