Information Concepts
1. Information is one of an organization's most valuable resources
2. Information is different from data
Data, Information, and Knowledge
1. Data: raw facts
2. Information: collection of facts organized in such a way that they have value beyond the facts themselves
3. Knowledge: awareness and understanding of a set of information and ways that information can be made useful to support a specific task or reach a decision

The Value of Information
1. Value of information is directly linked to how it helps decision makers achieve their organization's goals
2. For example, value of information might be measured in:
a) Time required to make a decision
b) Increased profits to company
System Concepts
1. System = A set of elements or components that interact to accomplish goals
2. Components of a system
a) Input
b) Processing
c) Output
d) Feedback
Figure 1.3: Components of a System
System Performance and Standards
1. Efficiency: measure of what is produced divided by what is consumed
2. Effectiveness: extent to which system attains its goals
3. System performance standard: a specific objective of the system
What Is An Information System?
Figure 1.5: The Components of an Information System
Input, Processing, Output, Feedback
1. Input: activity of gathering and capturing raw data
2. Processing: converting or transforming data into useful outputs
3. Output: production of useful information, usually in the form of documents and reports
4. Feedback: output that is used to make changes to input or processing activities
Manual and Computerized Information Systems
1. An information system can be:
a) Manual
b) Computerized
Computer-Based Information Systems
1. Computer-based information system (CBIS)
a) A single set of hardware, software, databases, telecommunications, people, and procedures that are configured to collect, manipulate, store, and process data into information
Figure 1.6: The Components of a Computer-Based Information System
Business Information Systems
1. Most common types of information systems used in business organizations
a) Electronic and mobile commerce systems
b) Transaction processing systems
c) Management information systems
d) Decision support systems
Electronic and Mobile Commerce
1. E-commerce:any business transaction executed electronically between parties such as:
a) Companies (business-to-business, B2B)
b) Companies and consumers (business-to-consumer, B2C)
c) Consumers and other consumers (consumer-to-consumer, C2C)
d) Business and the public sector
e) Consumers and the public sector
Enterprise Systems: Transaction Processing Systems and Enterprise Resource Planning
1. Transaction: any business-related exchange, such as payments to employees, sales to customers, and payments to suppliers
2. Transaction processing system (TPS): an organized collection of people, procedures, software, databases, and devices used to record completed business transactions
Transaction Processing Systems
Figure 1.11: A Payroll Transaction Processing System
Enterprise Resource Planning
1. A set of integrated programs that manages the vital business operations for an entire multisite, global organization
2. Can replace many applications with one unified set of programs, making the system easier to use and more effective
Information and Decision Support Systems
1. An effective TPS provides a number of benefits to a company
2. A TPS can speed business activities and reduce clerical costs
3. Data stored in TPSs is used to help managers make better decisions
Management Information Systems
1. Management information system (MIS): an organized collection of people, procedures, software, databases, and devices that provides routine information to managers and decision makers
2. Primary focus of an MIS is operational efficiency
Figure 1.12: Management Information System
Decision Support Systems
1. Decision support system (DSS): an organized collection of people, procedures, software, databases, and devices used to support problem-specific decision making
2. Focus of a DSS is on decision-making effectiveness
Figure 1.13: Essential DSS Elements
Specialized Business Information Systems:
1. Knowledge management systems (KMSs): an organized collection of people, procedures, software, databases, and devices to create, store, share, and use the organization's knowledge and experience
2. Artificial intelligence (AI): field in which the computer system takes on the characteristics of human intelligence
Figure 1.14: The Major Elements of Artificial Intelligence
Expert Systems
1. Give the computer the ability to make suggestions and act like an expert in a particular field
2. Allow organizations to capture and use the wisdom of experts and specialists
3. The knowledge base contains the collection of data, rules, procedures, and relationships that must be followed to achieve value or the proper outcome
