Information System

Types of Information System
There are six types of IS
1) transaction processing system (TPS)
2) decision support system (DSS)
3) expert support system (ESS)
4) management information system (MIS)
5) office automation system (OAS)
Components of CBIS
  • people
  • procedure
  • telecommunication
  • database 
  • software and
  • hardware
What is storage?
Storage hold data, instruction, and information for future use.
Storage Medium
It's the physical material on which a computer keeps data, instruction and information.
Processing
Processing requires a set of information
Components of processing
CPU and Memory
Types of IS
TPS
What is TPS?
TPS is a style of computing that divides work into individual, invisible operation called transaction.
Components of TPS
1) People
2) Hardware
3) Software

MIS
What is MIS?

MIS provides information that organizations need to manage themselves efficiently and effectively.
Functions of MIS
1) helps organization achieve goals
2) provides right info to the right people at the right time and format.
MIS is an information system that generates accurate, timely and organized information, so managers and other users can make decisions, solve problems, supervise activities, and track process. 
MIS is used to call MRS sometimes.
  DSS
What is DSS?
DSS is an information system designed to help users to reach a decision-when a decision making situation arises. 
It helps provide information to support such decision.

 ESS
What is ESS?
It is designed to support higher level of DM in organization.
Characteristics of ESS
- special type of DSS
- support info needs to Executive
- use internal and external data sources
- DSSs ir EISs ofetn use extremely large databases, called data warehouses.

ES
What is ES?
ESs are part of a general category of computer applications known as artificial intelligence.



Other information systems


Office Automation System


Business Information System


Vision System (capture visual image)


Enterprise Resource Planning system

ISD
It is a conceptual model used in project management that describes the stages involve in an information system development project.

IS development methodologies
It is a collection of procedures techniques, tools and documentation aids which will help the systems developers in their efforts to implement a new information system.

Why and when you initiate system development? 
  1. Problems with existing system
  2. Desire to introduce new system
  3. Change in market/external environment
  4. Merger of acquisition
Participants in system development
  • Project manager
  • Stakeholders
  • System analyst
  • Programmers 
  • Users
  • Support personal
What are the steps in ISD planning?
  1. Strategic plan
  2. Develop objectives
  3. Identify IS projects
  4. Analyze resources
  5. Set schedules and deadlines
  6. Develop IS 
Stages in STRADICS
  1. Initial study
  2. Detail study
  3. Designing alternatives
  4. Physical design
Prototyping
What is prototyping?
An easily modified and extensible model of a planned software system,likely including its interface and input/output functionality.
Structured approach (SDLC)
It is the oldest methodology used to coordinate the efforts to IS development is known as the SDLC. 
The model is based on a set of generic life cycle stages to guide develop through maintenance of the complete systems.
SDLC stages
  1. system investigation
  2. system analysis 
  3. system design
  4. system implementation
  5. system maintenance and review
