Information systems
combination of information, resources, activities and people that support tasks in an organization; group of components that interact to produce information
Information systems (IS) is the study of how people put data into computers to create useful information.[1][2][3][4]
There are five things you need to make an information system work:
- People - People that are using these computers to do their jobs.
- Procedures - The things people have to DO to do their jobs.
- Hardware - The actual computers that people use to store facts.
- Software - The instructions on these computer screens that tell you how to enter facts into the computer.
- Data - Facts, facts, and more facts in the computer.
