System
Learning
Outcomes
7.1 Types of Information System
4. Is a collection of hardware, software, data, people, and
procedures that work together to produce quality information.
Is a set of interrelated elements or components that collect
(input), manipulate (process), store disseminate (output) data
and information and provide corrective reaction (feedback
mechanism) to meet an objective.
(Stair & Reynolds, 2012)
(Shelly & Vermaat, 2012)
Definition Information System
7.1 Types of Information System
6. 1. Hardware
Hardware refers to the computer system that the database
system runs on. Example mainframe, minicomputer,
microcomputer, network, input/output peripherals etc.
2. Software
Software refers to a collection of programs used by a
computer in a database system. This includes the DBMS,
the operating system of a computer and network,
application and utility program.
Component of Information System
7.1 Types of Information System
7. 3. Data
Data comprises of all facts stored in a database. This includes
operational data and metadata.
4. Procedures
Procedures refer to the instruction and rules that govern the
design and use of a database system.
Component of Information System
7.1 Types of Information System
8. 5. People
People encompasses all users of a database system.
This includes the business analysts, database designer,
data administrators, DBA, application programmers and
end-users.

ESS
DSS
MIS
TPS
7.1 Types of Information System
13. Is an information System that captures and processes
data day-to-day
An operational system that record and process data resulting
from business transactions.
Examples of transactions are deposits, payments, orders and
reservations
Two basic way of process transaction
1. Batch processing
2. Online Transaction Processing(OLP)/
Real-Time Processing
Transaction Processing System (TPS)
7.1 Types of Information System
14. Transaction Processing System (TPS)
Figure 14-14 With batch
processing, all airline
reservations are
processed together at the
end of the day. With OLTP,
reservations are
processed
immediately.
(Shelly & Vermaat, 2012)

7.1 Types of Information System
15. 1. Batch processing
• Transactions data are accumulated over a period of
time and processed periodically.
• The computer collect data over time and process all
transactions later, as a group.
Transaction Processing System (TPS)
7.1 Types of Information System
16. 2. Online Transaction Processing(OLP) /
Real-Time Processing
• The computer processes each transaction as it is
entered.
• Data are processed immediately after a
transaction occurs.
Transaction Processing System (TPS)
7.1 Types of Information System
17. Purpose TPS
7.1 Types of Information System
The intent of these system is to
process transactions faster
reduce clerical costs
improve customer service
18. Management Information System (MIS)
7.1 Types of Information System
Is an information system that generates
accurate, timely and organized information
Produce meaningful information for manager
or produce report
19. Produce meaningful information for
managers
Three basic types of reports
1. Detailed
2. Summary
3. Exception
• Assist lower management in problem solving
and making decision.
Purpose MIS
Management Information System (MIS)
7.1 Types of Information System
20. Helps users analyze information and make
decisions.
DSS give direct computer support to managers
during the decision-making process.
Example :
A production manager may use a DSS to decide
how much product to manufacture based on the
expected sales associated with a future promotion
and the location.
Decision Support System (DSS)
7.1 Types of Information System
21. Purpose DSS
Decision Support System (DSS)
7.1 Types of Information System
Help users retrieve data and analyze the
result
Allow managers to create a model of the
factors affecting a decision
Reports are in the form of charts or diagram
22. Executive Support System (ESS)
7.1 Types of Information System
A special type of Decision Support System
(DSS) that serve the strategic level of the
organisation
23. Supports the strategic information
needs of executive management.
Gathers and presents information to
Senior management in the form of
graphics and reports used to assist in
decision making.
Purpose
7.1 Types of Information System
Executive Support System (ESS)
24. Manager use an
ESS to analyze
a company's
financial trends
Executive Support System (ESS)
Example
7.1 Types of Information System
ESS
25. Is an information system that enables employees
to perform tasks using computers and other
electronic devices.
The system help employee to collects, process,
store and transmit electronic message, document
and other form of communication among
individual, work group and organizations.
Office Automation System (OAS)
7.1 Types of Information System
26. A school posted its class schedules on the
internet. When the school updates the schedule,
students receive an email notification.
Office Automation System (OAS)
Example
7.1 Types of Information System
27. Increase employee productivity
Assists with communication among employee
Office Automation System (OAS)
Purpose
7.1 Types of Information System
28. Types of IS Characteristics
Transaction
Processing System
(TPS)
Provides raw data used in
Processing in EIS, MIS and DSS
The lowest level of information
system
Used by businesses to record
“transaction” information
Transactions include things like
booking airline tickets, purchasing
goods or services
7.1 Types of Information System
29. Types of IS Characteristics
Management
Information
System (MIS)
A step up from TPS
This type of systems is used for routine
reporting
Reports are used to monitor and control
normal business activities
Provides input to be used in the
managerial decision process.
Generate report in various time – basis
(weekly, monthly, and/or yearly)
Data is provided from internal company
sources only.
7.1 Types of Information System
30. Types of IS Characteristics
Decision
Support
System (DSS)
Provides information to managers who
must make judgments about particular
situations. Supports decision-makers in
situations that
are not well structured
7.1 Types of Information System
31. Types of IS Characteristics
Executive
Support
System (ESS)
Used for strategic business planning
Relatively long time-frame considered
Unstructured and open-ended (many
variables can be considered)
For accurate results EIS require
information from inside and outside the
business
Its major activity is information scanning
and evaluation, it deals mainly with the
intelligence phase of decision-making.
7.1 Types of Information System
32. 1. Explain the components of information system
2. What is TPS and who is the users of TPS?
3. What is the main difference between TPS and MIS?
4. Differentiate MIS from DSS.
5. Who are the users of OAS?
6. What is ESS and who are the main users of ESS?
