Management Management covers the planning, control, and administration of the operations of a concern. The top management handles planning; the middle management concentrates on controlling; and the lower management is concerned with actual administration. Information Information, in MIS, means the processed data that helps the management in planning, ontrolling and operations. Data means all the facts arising out of the operations of the concern. Data is processed i.e. recorded, summarized, compared and finally presented to the management in the form of MIS report. System Data is processed into information with the help of a system. A system is made up of inputs, processing, output and feedback or control. Thus MIS means a system for processing data in order to give proper information to the management for performing its functions.

Abstract systems
An abstract or conceptual system is an orderly arrangement of interdependent ideas
or constructs, which may or may not have any counterpart in the real .
Physical System : physical systems are generally concrete operational systems
made up of people, materials, machines, energy and other physical things; Physical
systems are more than conceptual constructs.
Deterministic Systems

Open Systems: An open system is one that interacts with its environment
and thus exchanges information, material, or energy with the environment,
including random and undefined inputs. Open systems are adaptive in
nature, as they tend to react with the environment in such a way, so as to
favor their continued existence.
Closed System : Systems that are relatively isolated from the environment
but not completely closed are termed closed system.

Data Information
Meaning
Data is raw, unorganized
facts that need to be
processed. Data can be
something simple and
seemingly random and
useless until it is
organized.
When data is
processed, organized,
s tructured or
presented in a given
context so as to make
it useful, it is called
information.
Example
Each student's test score
is one piece of data.
The average score of a
class or of the entire
school is information
that can be derived
from the given data.

'Cost-Benefit Analysis'
A cost-benefit analysis is a process by which business decisions are
analyzed. The benefits of a given situation or business-related action are
summed, and then the costs associated with taking that action are
subtracted. Some consultants or analysts also build the model to put a dollar
value on intangible items .

Qualitative and Quantitative Data Analysis:
Quantitative Research is considered to have as its main purpose the
quantification of data. This allows generalizations of results from a
sample to an entire population of interest and the measurement of the
incidence of various views and opinions in a given sample. Yet,
quantitative research is not infrequently followed by qualitative research
which then aims to explore select findings further.
Qualitative research is considered to be particularly suitable for gaining
an in-depth understanding of underlying reasons and motivations. It
provides insights into the setting of a problem. At the same time, it
frequently generates ideas and hypotheses for later quantitative
research.

(Affiliated to Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University and Approved by Govt of NCT of Delhi & Bar Council of India)
Qualitative Data Analysis is non-statistical, its methodological
approach is primarily guided by the concrete material at hand. In
quantitative research, the sole approach to data is statistical and
takes places in the form of tabulations. Findings are usually
descriptive in nature although conclusive only within the numerical
framework.

Assessing Information Needs
It is important to find out about the people who will use the resource centre.
This includes finding out what information they need, what information is
provided by other organizations, and how far their needs for information
are being met. This is known as carrying out a needs assessment.
A needs assessment looks at:
Who the users will be
What their information needs are
What materials are available
How information can be disseminated

Data Mining :
Data mining is the process of using “raw” data to infer important “business”
relationships.
Despite a consensus on the value of data mining, a great deal of confusion exists
about what it is.
Data Mining is a collection of powerful techniques intended for analyzing large
amounts of data.
There is no single data mining approach, but rather a set of techniques that can be
used stand alone or in combination with each other.

Centralized processing System
Centralized processing is when you only have one CPU to do all the
processing. Centralized processing is performed in one computer or in a
cluster of coupled computers in a single location. All data processing is
performed in the central computer. Thus centralized processing is in which all
processing power in the organization is located on one large computer.
Distributed Processing System
Distributed Processing is when you have multiple CPUs where you distribute
the tasks of the system. All computing is controlled through a central terminal
server(s), which centrally provides the processing, programs and storage. The
workstations (Thin Clients, PCs, appliances) are just used for input and display
purposes. They connect to the server(s) where all tasks are performed.
Distributed processing is used to refer to a variety of that use more than
one (or ) to an . This includes parallel processing in which a single computer
uses more than one CPU .
