'''Data processing''' is any [[computer]] [[process]] that converts [[data]] into [[information]]. The processing is usually assumed to be automated and running on an a [[mainframe]], [[minicomputer]], [[microcomputer]], or [[personal computer]]. Because data are most useful when well-presented and actually ''informative'', data-processing systems are often referred to as [[information system]]s to emphasize their practicality. Nevertheless, both terms are roughly synonymous, performing similar conversions; data-processing systems typically manipulate raw data into information, and likewise information systems typically take raw data as input to produce information as output.
