​Distinguish between Logical file structure and physical file structure.

  • Logical files.
    ​A Logical file is a type of file viewed by the user in terms of what data items it contains &what processing operations may be performed on the stored data items.
  • Physical files.
    A Physical file is viewed in terms of how the data items found in a file are arranged on the surface of the storage media (e.g., disk, tape), and how the stored data items can be processed.

​Differentiate between distributed processing and multi processing

  • Distributed processing – rather than a large central computer, several smaller computers, linked together by data communications media, are located in different parts of the organization and may share a database. Data can sent to and from head office or other branches as required.
  • Multiprocessing – two or more CPUs present in the same computer system share the workload of data supplied to that computer for processing.

(c) Explain the purpose of each of the following in system documentation:
(î) user manual; 
(ii) sample data: 
(iii) table descriptions. 
RESPONSES
​(a) Time-sharing mode
This is a processing mode in which a central processor serves two or more users with different requirements. The processor time is divided equally
among the tasks in the queue. A user whose task requirements are more than is apportioned is send back to the queue. For example, four jobs requiring times t1, t2, t3 and t4 to complete is apportioned equal time in each round until when they are done.
With the aid of a diagram. describe time sharing mode as used in computer data processing.
(b) Factors to consider when selecting data processing mode
  •  The optimisation of processing time;
  •  The time factor required for decision arising from the processed data;
  •  The ease of development, use and maintenance;
  • The control over the resources e.g. files, I/O devices e.t.c;
  • The need for the shared resources among several users who may afford purchasing their own facilities as in time sharing configuration;
  •  The volume of work involved;
  •  The cost of acquiring the relevant hardware. software. media e .t .c and the cost of maintenance;
  •  The nature of the task to be processed.
(c) (i) Purpose of user manual
  • It is a documentation whose purpose is to help a user to use the system with little guidance.
(ii) Purpose of sample data
  • Before the system is implemented, it has to be confirmed that it is functional. Sample data is meant to be used to test whether the system is giving desired output.
(iii) Purpose of table descriptions
  • They are details of table structures that the system will require for the purpose of designing the actual tables.
