 Information processing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As such, it is a process which describes everything which happens (changes) in the universe, from the falling of a rock (a change in position) to the printing of a text file from a digital computer system.
The essence of the approach is to see cognition as being essentially computational in nature, with mind being the software and the brain being the hardware.
In general, information processing is the changing (processing) of information in any manner detectable by an observer.

 Educational Psychology Interactive: The Information Processing Approach
The parallel-distributed processing model states that information is processed simultaneously by several different parts of the memory system, rather than sequentially as hypothesized by Atkinson-Shiffrin as well as Craik and Lockhart.
The hypothalamus is a brain structure thought to be involved in this shallow processing of information.
The two processes most likely to move information into long-term memory are elaboration and distributed practice (referred to as periodic review in the direct instruction model).

 Learning Theories: Information Processing Theory
Information processing theory has become a general theory of human cognition; the phenomenon of chunking has been generally verified for all levels of cognitive processing.
The second concept, that of information processing, uses the computer as a model for human learning.
Processing information in sequential steps is a fundamental cognitive process.

 Cognitive Information Processing
Information Processing Theory suggest the importance of feedback and the necessity of making mistakes so that the learner develops problem solving strategies.
George A. Miller’s theoretical idea of the Information Processing Theory is that information is divided into small "chunk" structures in working memory.
Elaboration and distributed practice are the two processes that move information into long-term memory.

 QIP 2002
Quantum information processing is the intersection of quantum mechanics and computer science.
QIP 2002 is the fifth workshop on quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and quantum information theory in the tradition of AQIP 98 in Århus, AQIP 99 in Chicago, QIP 2000 in Montréal, and QIP 2001 at the CWI in Amsterdam.
After Peter Shor's 1994 discovery of efficient quantum algorithms for factoring and the discrete log (threatening current "classical" cryptography), the field has grown explosively and is now one of the hottest subfields of both computer science and physics.

 Information Processing - Ebook
However, knowing that this model is a cognitive processing model and knowing that the model is based on an explicit metaphor with a computer is helpful in understanding IP theory.
The process of elaboration occurs when information is retrieved from the LTM in order to link to the new information.
They review the thought processes that they used as they progressed through a project and evaluate those that were successful and those that were not.

 Langston, Cognitive Psychology, Notes 1
For example, the more information a stimulus conveys, the harder it is to detect the stimulus in a noisy environment.
All of that information is useless without some way to make sense of it.
Cognitive psychology operates under the information processing paradigm.

 information processing --  Encyclopædia Britannica
Word processing involves the use of computers, software, and printers to get data into printed form.
It attempts to bring together concepts and methods from various disciplines such as library science, computer science and engineering, linguistics, psychology, and other technologies in order to develop techniques and devices to aid in the handling—that is, in the collection, organization,...

 Data entry and information processing workers
Most keyboarding is now done on word processing equipment—usually a personal computer or part of a larger computer system—which normally includes a keyboard, video display terminal, and printer, which may have “add-on” capabilities such as optical character recognition readers.
Data entry and information processing worker also must be comfortable working with office automation, and in this regard they are similar to court reporters, medical records and health information technicians, secretaries and administrative assistants, and computer operators.
Many use a machine that converts the information they type to magnetic impulses on tapes or disks for entry into a computer system.

 P540 - Cognitive information processing
Cognitive information processing (CIP) is not associated with the work of a single theorist; rather, it builds on the work of a number of researchers who share a common paradigm.
Provide unifying themes for content, since information that lacks a theme can be difficult to comprehend, or, worse, the learner may "accrete" the information to the wrong schema.
A computer program, in that it enables us to actively evaluate and parse incoming information.

 Biases Affecting Information Processing
Similarly, information arriving in the middle of a project may be unfairly discounted or ignored, simply because of its position in the data stream.
The problem is that the unavailable information, or the information that is harder to get, may actually be the more reliable or the more definitive for use in making good decisions.
Information that is easy to understand, presented clearly and simply, described in exact and graspable terms, is much more likely to influence us than difficult, tedious, or ambiguous information.

 Information Processing
It may be convenient to view information processing as parallel to the way in which an executive manages a business.
(This is like retrieving information from long-term memory to integrate it with new information then storing the new information in long-term memory.) On other occasions the executive may dig out the information in several old files and update the files in some fashion or integrate them in some way to attack a complex problem.
In some cases, when new information arrives, the executive gets old information from a file and integrates the new information with the old before refiling it.

 Information Processing Theory Basics
The initial appeal of information processing theories was the idea that cognitive processes could be described in a stage-like model.
Retrieval- The information is found at the appropriate time, and reactivated for use on a current task, the true test of effective memory.
The stages to processing follow a path along which information is taken into the memory system, and reactivated when necessary.

 Quantum information and quantum computation
When information is recorded in the exact quantum state microscopic systems such as polarized photons or atoms, and allowed to evolve according to the laws of quantum mechanics, novel kinds of information transmission and processing become possible.
During his long career at IBM Research, he continually emphasized the connection between information processing and fundamental laws of physics, and discovered the connection between logical irreversibility and heat generation by computers now known as Landauer's principle.

 HIPRL's Department 6
Our goal is to create an artificial brain---an information processing system, rich in autonomy and creativity---based on an evolutionary system that will be able not only to develop new functionality spontaneously, but will also grow and evolve its own structure autonomously.
In social modeling, the system is a dynamic process where the global or macroscopic order/state emerges through the behavior and the interaction of its microscopic components.
To enable human-to-computer communication that is similar to human-to-human communication, we are aiming to build computers that can generate information---information processing systems, rich in autonomy and creativity similar to the human brain.

 DNA May Hold Key To Information Processing And Data Storage
The scaffolding has the potential to self-assemble components 1,000 times as densely as the best information processing circuitry and 100 times the best data storage circuitry now in the pipeline.
Circuitry based on regular arrays of closely spaced components could be used for quickly recognizing objects in a video image and detecting motion in a scene -- slow and difficult tasks for conventional computer chips.
The nanocomponents can hold electrical charge or a magnetic field, either of which would represent a bit of data, and interactions between components can act to process information.
