SUMMARY OF STUDY
WHAT IS AN INFORMATION SYSTEM ? An information system , can be defined technically as a set of interrelated components that collect (or retrieve) , process , store and distribute information to support decision making and control in an organization. In addition to supporting decision making , coordination and control information systems may also help managers and workers analyze problems , visualize complex subjects,and creat new products.
Information systems contain information about significant people,places ,and things within the organization or in the environment surrounding it.
Three activities in an information system produce the information that organizations need for making decisions ,controlling operations ,analyzing problems and creating new products or services.These activities are input ,processing,and output.Input captures or collects raw data from within the organization or from its external environment.Processing converts this raw input into a more meaningful form.Output transfers the processed information to the people or activities where it will be used.Information systems also require feedback,which is output that is returned to appropriate members of the organization to help them evaluate or correct the input stage.
-INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY-
Over the last 30 years , computing costs have dropped by a factor of 10 each decade and capacity has increased by factor of at least 100 each decade . Today's microprocessors can put a mainframe on a desktop , and eventually into a briefcase of shirt pocket . The future will see even more intelligence built into everyday
