Table 1.3Six Data Processing Functions Performed
by Information Technology
FUNCTION CAPTURE Definition Obtain a
representation of information in a form
permitting it to be transmitted or stored
Example Keyboard, bar code scanner, document
scanner, optical character recognition, sound
recorder, video camera, voice recognition
software FUNCTION TRANSMIT Definition Move
information from one place to another Example
Broadcast radio, broadcast television via
regional transmitters, cable TV, satellite
broadcasts, telephone networks, data transmission
networks for moving business data, fiber optic
cable, fax machine, electronic mail, voice mail,
internet FUNCTION STORE Definition Move
information to a specific place for later
retrieval Example Paper, computer tape, floppy
disk, hard disk, optical disk, CD-ROM, flash
memory

Table 1.3Six Data Processing Functions Performed
by Information Technology
FUNCTION RETRIEVE Definition Find the specific
information that is currently needed Example
Paper, computer tape, floppy disk, hard disk,
optical disk, CD-ROM, flash memory FUNCTION
MANIPULATE Definition Create new information
from existing information through summarizing,
sorting, rearranging, reformatting, or other
types of calculations Example Computer (plus
software) FUNCTION DISPLAY Definition Show
information to a person Example Laser printer,
computer screen
