Data are distinct pieces of information collected for analysis to produce research results. There are two types of data: primary and secondary. Primary data is original data collected directly by the researcher through surveys, observation, or experimentation. Secondary data refers to data originally collected by someone else for another purpose that is now being used for a new study. Common methods for collecting primary data include observation, interviews, questionnaires, and schedules. Secondary data can come from government publications, journals, reports, and unpublished sources.

Different Methods of Collection of DataP. Veeresha
Data collection is a term used to describe a process of preparing and collecting data.
Data are the basic inputs to any decision making process in any fields like education, business, industries…. etc
The primary data are those which are collected afresh and for the first time, and thus happen to be original in character. It is real time data and which are collected by the researcher himself.
Secondary data means data that are already available i.e., they refer to the data which have already been collected and analyzed by someone else.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
2. DEFINITION OF DATA
Data are distinct pieces of information, usually
formatted in a special way.
Research data is data that is collected,
observed, or created, for purpose of analysis to
produce original research results.
3. IMPORTANCE OF
DATA
Data analysis is very important as it provides an explanation of various concepts, theories, frameworks
and methods used. It eventually helps in arriving at conclusions and proving the hypothesis.
Data analysis helps in structuring the findings from different sources of data.
Data analysis is very helpful in breaking a macro problem into micro parts.
Data analysis acts like a filter when it comes to acquiring meaningful insights out of huge data set.
Data analysis helps in keeping human bias away from the research conclusion with the help of proper
statistical treatment.
5. PRIMARY DATA
Primary data is original research that is obtained
through first-hand investigation by means of
surveys, observation and experimentation .
It is the real time data which are collected by the
researcher himself.
6. COLLECTION OF PRIMARY
DATA
Primary data is collected in the course of doing experimental or descriptive
research by doing experiments, performing surveys or by observation or
direct communication with respondents.
Several methods for collecting primary data are :-
1. Observation method
2. Interview method
3. Questionnaire
4. Schedules
5. Projective technique
7. 1. OBSERVATION
It is commonly used in studies relating to behavioral science. Under this
method observation becomes a scientific tool and the method of data
collection for the researcher, when it serves a formulated research purpose and
is systematically planned and subjected to check and controls.
(a). Structured (descriptive) and unstructured (exploratory) observation.
(b). Participant, non-participant and disguised observation.
(c). Controlled (laboratory) and uncontrolled (exploratory) observation.
8. 2. INTERVIEW
METHOD
This method of collecting data involves preparation of oral verbal stimuli and
reply in terms of oral – verbal responses. It can be achieved by two ways :
A. Personal Interview
B. Telephonic Interview
9. (A). Personal interview : It require a person known as interviewer to ask
questions generally in a face to face contact to the other person. It can be –
• Direct personal investigation.
• Indirect oral examination.
• Structured interviews.
• Unstructured interviews.
• Focused interviews
• Clinical interviews
• Non directive interview
(B). Telephonic interviews : It requires the interviewer to collect
information by contacting respondents on telephone and asking questions
or opinions orally.
10. 3.
QUESTIONNAIRE
In this method a questionnaire is sent (mailed) to the concerned respondents who are
expected to read, understand and reply on their own and return the questionnaire. It
consists of a number of questions printed on typed in a definite order on a form on sets of
form.
Essential of a good questionnaire :
• it should be short and simple.
• Questions should proceed in a logical sequence.
• Adequate space for answer must be provided.
• Brief directions with regard to filling up of questionnaire must be provided.
• The physical appearances – quality of paper, color etc. must be good to attract the
attention of the respondent.
11. 4.
SCHEDULES
This method of data collection is similar to questionnaire method with the
difference that schedules are being filled by the enumerations specially
appointed for the purpose. Enumerations explain the aims and objects of
the investigation and may remove any misunderstanding and help the
respondents to record answer. Enumerations should be well trained to
perform their job, he/she should be honest hard working and patient. This
type of data is helpful in extensive enquiries however it is very expensive.
12. SECONDARY DATA
Secondary data refers to data that
was collected by someone other
than the user. Common sources
of secondary data for social science
include censuses, information
collected by government
departments, organizational records
and data that was originally collected
for other research purposes.
13. COLLECTION OF SECONDARY
DATA
A researcher can obtain secondary data from various
sources. Secondary data may either be published data or
unpublished data.
Published data are available in :
1. Publication of government.
2. Technical and trade journals.
3. Reports of various business, banks etc.
4. Public records
5. Statistical or historical documents.
Unpublished data may be found in letters, dairies, unpublished
biographies or work.
14. Before using secondary data, it must be checked for the following
characteristics :-
1. Reliability of data – who collected the data ? From what source ?
Time ? Possibility of bias ? Accuracy ?
2. Suitability of data – the object, scope nature of the original enquiry
must be studies and then carefully scrutinize the data of suitability.
3. Adequacy – the data is considered inadequate if the level pf
accuracy achieved in data is found inadequate or if they are related to
an area which may be either narrower or wider than the area of the
present enquiry.
