Data Examples
• Yes, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes• 42, 63, 96, 74, 56, 86• 111192, 111234
• None of the above data sets have any meaning until they are given a CONTEXT and PROCESSED into a useable form

• To achieve its aims the organisation will need to process data into information.
• Data needs to be turned into meaningful information and presented in its most useful format
• Data must be processed in a context in order to give it meaning
Data into Information

Knowledge Workers
• Knowledge workers have specialist knowledge that makes them “experts”– Based on formal and informal rules they
have learned through training and experience
• Examples include doctors, managers, librarians, scientists…

Expert Systems
• Because many rules are based on probabilities computers can be programmed with “subject knowledge” to mimic the role of experts
• One of the most common uses of expert systems is in medicine– The ONCOLOG system shown here analyses
patient data to provide a reference for doctors, and help for the choice, prescription and follow-up of chemotherapy
