Editor's Notes
- Hardware– these are the devices like the monitor, processor, printer and keyboard, all of which work together to accept, process, show data and information. Software– are the programs that allow the hardware to process the data. Databases– are the gathering of associated files or tables containing related data. Networks– are a connecting system that allows diverse computers to distribute resources. Procedures– are the commands for combining the components above to process information and produce the preferred output
- The first four components (hardware, software, database and network) make up what is known as the information technology platform. Information technology workers could then use these components to create information systems that watch over safety measures, risk and the management of data. These actions are known as information technology services.
- Need to consider Internet Up to date and accessible from different sources Interactivity – Easy to interact with the internet Video Conferencing Distance, time, jet lag – all irrelevant Mobile Communications via satellites Global coverage Irrelevant location of either party – WAP phones Video Conferencing Distance, time, jet lag – all irrelevant E-mail Global, not dependent on location Attachments Group Working ie Ofice Suite. Each application works easily within the same suite due to the engine that’s employed. Software – editing changes, combined with other technologies – e-mail, WAP, digital TV
- For any given application the following features must be present:
- WAP – Wireless Application Protocol ISDN - Integrated Services Digital Networks Facsimile - A fax, a machine for making and sending copies of printed material and images via radio or telephone network.
- Both information systems (IS) and information technology (IT) are burgeoning industries that offer job opportunities that have long-term professional growth potential. The fields are related in more ways than that, however. In fact, the terms information technology and information systems are sometimes used interchangeably, but that is a misnomer. There are similarities and differences in the two fields
- One of the reasons people may not distinguish between IS and IT is that they assume all information systems are computer-based systems An information system, however, can be as simple as a pencil and a piece of paper. Separate, the objects are just tools. Used together, they create a system for recording information.
- TPS used primarily for record keeping which is required in any organization to conduct the business. Examples of TPS are sales order entry, payroll, and shipping records etc. TPS is used for periodic report generation in a scheduled manner. TPS is also used for producing reports on demand as well as exception reports.
- MIS use information such as a database to improve performance, create reports and make decisions. MIS provides routine information to managers and decision makers. The primary objective behind installing an MIS in the organization is to increase operational efficiency. MIS may support marketing, production, finance, etc.
- MIS Process
- MIS use information such as a database to improve performance, create reports and make decisions. MIS provides routine information to managers and decision makers. The primary objective behind installing an MIS in the organization is to increase operational efficiency. MIS may support marketing, production, finance, etc.
- EIS or Executive Support System is used by senior managers of an organization to do trend analysis, exception reporting and have drill-down capabilities. The results are usually presented in a graphical form tailored to the executive’s information needs. EIS has on-line analysis tools and they access a broad range of internal and external data.
- Architecture of EIS or ESS
- Administrative workflow systems focus on the tracking of expense reports, travel requests, messages. An Ad-hoc workflow system deals with the shaping of product, sales proposals and strategic plans. Production workflow systems are concerned with mortgage loans and insurance claims. It also may be based on server architecture that may use a database or file server.
- 10 Features of every workflow management system
- The term is commonly used as a synonym for computers and computer networks, but it also encompasses other information distribution technologies such as television and telephones. Several products or services within an economy are associated with information technology. IT is a wide-ranging term that describes the technological transfer, storage and accessibility of information.
- the term ‘information technology’ has been around since 1958. It first appeared in the Harvard Business Review. Thus, IT falls under the IS umbrella — it deals with the technological components that are used in the information systems themselves. By definition, IT is the study, design, implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems.
- Software includes all the computer programs – codes and instructions – within a computer. Computers do not work without software. Hardware, in this context, refers to the physical components of a computer system.
- “This includes designing the hardware for processing information and connecting separate components, and developing software that can efficiently and faultlessly analyze and distribute this data.”
- Both information technology and information systems deal with computer-based systems to an extent, but require different education and training. Think of information technology as a subset of information systems—while IS covers the set of information as a whole IT refers specifically to the technology aspect within that system. The field of information systems works as the bridge between technology and people, whereas information technology focuses on helping them utilize and make sense of that system. The two disciplines are related, but have distinct sets of learnings and career paths.
- businesses use information technology to ensure that their departments run smoothly including human resources, finance, manufacturing, and security businesses have the ability to view changes in the global markets far faster than they usually do software packages and hardware that helps them get their job done Information technology has allowed businesses to keep up with the supply and demand as consumers grow more anxious to have their items instantly
- world of education is changing as the modern world continues to grow students of today are the leaders, inventors, teachers, and businessmen (and women) of tomorrow online classes that can be accessed on computers or laptops, tablets, and even mobile phones student at work can easily check in or submit assignments while on their lunch break helping to prevent more high school and college dropouts as well
- online purchases going on has also made it faster and easier than ever to send or receive money easier to open an online small business to sell whatever you might want makes it easy for finance to function on a global level allows lenders, insurance companies, and businesses to run a quick credit check on you making it far easier to open credit
- medical offices can now send and receive digital medical information from doctors you’ve had in the past this allow costs to be lowered and increase the amount of time doctors can spend on patients compared to paperwork medical information is secure no matter where it’s sent prescriptions sent digitally to local pharmacies at most medical offices doctor can use a computer to create detailed images of your organs along with creating images that show changes in your body chemistry and blood flow helpful to find illnesses that aren’t found with blood tests or other medical tests
- makes it possible for your online data to stay secure until accessed by the proper channels Using passwords and encryption, information technology hides your personal digital data away
