II. Match each statement or description with the appropriate data processing
model: Centralized Data Processing (CDP) or Distributed Data Processing
(DDP).
1) All data processing is performed by one or more large computers housed at a central
site.
2) IT resources and control are decentralized and distributed across various locations or
business units.
3) It is typically used by large organizations that require high-level control over their
IT systems from a central location.
4) Each unit is responsible for its own IT operations, with less dependency on a central
IT department.
5) This model is associated with cost reductions, as local departments manage their
own systems with smaller, inexpensive computers.
6) It may lead to resource inefficiencies, as different units may use incompatible
hardware or software.
7) All IT services and resources are handled by a single, centralized IT team.
8) Allows more flexibility and responsiveness for end users in meeting their specific
needs.
9) It may cause difficulties in achieving consistent IT standards and security across all
units.
10) This model is less prone to inefficiencies and issues with incompatible systems.
