- Factors Effecting the Efficiency of Data Processing Systems
- Hardware
- Quad Core Processor > Dual Processor
- Quad core = more processors processing the data = more efficient
- Larger amount of R.A.M
- More R.A.M = more free space = more efficient
- Age of the Hardware
- The older the hardware = slower the processing = been used a lot = less efficient
- Quad Core Processor > Dual Processor
- Software
- Up-To-Date Software
- Software not up-to-date = take longer to process data = software not at its best
- Size of the files
- The larger the file size = the longer it'll take for the systems to process
- Up-To-Date Software
- Communication between Devices
- if the devices are further away = it'll take longer for the data to be sent + received = can be less efficient then if the devices were closer together
- If the devices aren't made by the same company = it'll take them longer to communicate + then send the data from the one device to the other and process it = less efficient
- Compatibility of systems (software and hardware)
- Old and New Software
- Takes time for the pieces of software to match + send data between them = less efficient
- Old and New Hardware
- Takes time for the pieces of hardware to match + send data between them = less efficient
- Different makes of Software
- If you use 2 different software makers = take longer to connect + send data between them
- Different makes of hardware
- If you use 2 different hardware makers = take longer to process + send data between them
- Old and New Software
- Hardware
