This document discusses systems and information systems. It defines a system as a set of elements or components that interact to accomplish goals, including input, processing, output, and feedback. An information system is defined as a group of components that interact to produce information, including people, hardware, software, databases, telecommunications networks, procedures, and the internet. It provides examples of manual and computerized information systems. Computer-based information systems have hardware, software, databases, telecommunications networks, people, and procedures configured to collect, manipulate, store, and process data into information.

12. What Systems are

13. System Concept (1)
• System
A set of elements or components that interact to accomplish
goals
• Components of a system
• Input
• Processing
• Output
• Feedback

14. System Concept (2)

15. System Concept (3)
• Input: activity of gathering and capturing raw data
• Processing: converting or transforming data into
useful outputs
• Output: production of useful information, usually in
the form of documents and reports
• Feedback: output that is used to make changes to
input or processing activities

16. What Information Systems are

17. What is Information System?
• Information system (IS) is a group of components that
interact to produce information.
• IS is the expression used to describe an Automated
System (which may be referred to as a Computerized
Information System), which covers people, machines
or organized methods to collect, process, transmit
and disseminate data representing information for
the user or client.
• What are the components?

18. Manual vs Computerized Information
Systems
• Manual information systems:
Investment analysts manually draw charts and trend lines to
assist them in making investment decisions
• Computerized information systems:
Follow stock indexes and markets and suggest when large
blocks of stocks should be purchased or sold

19. Computer-Based Information Systems
(CBIS)
Single set of hardware, software, databases,
telecommunications, people, and procedures:
configured to collect, manipulate, store, and process data
into information

20. Components of CBIS (1)

21. Components of CBIS (2)
1. Hardware:
Consists of computer equipment used to perform input,
processing, and output activities
2. Software:
Consists of the computer programs that govern the operation of
the computer
3. Database:
Organized collection of facts and information, typically consisting
of two or more related data files

22. Components of CBIS (3)
4. Telecommunications, networks, and the Internet:
The electronic transmission of signals for communications
Networks:
Connect computers and equipment to enable electronic communication
• Internet:
World’s largest computer network, consisting of thousands of interconnected
networks, all freely exchanging information
• Intranet:
Internal network that allows people within an organization to exchange information
and work on projects
• Extranet:
Network that allows selected outsiders, such as business partners and customers, to
access authorized resources of a company’s intranet

23. Components of CBIS (4)
5. People:
The most important element in most computer-based
information systems
6. Procedures:
Include strategies, policies, methods, and rules for using the
CBIS

25. INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT
Types: IS Diary – O3
Topics: Components of CBIS
How to:
1. Read the article on page 151 of “Principles of Information Systems” Book (Stair and Reynolds, 2010).
2. Answer the following questions:
a) For ODD Student Number
Discussion Questions
1. What role does software play in the SmartBeam IMRT medical system?
2. Why couldn’t Varian produce the SmartBeam IMRT before it did?
b) For EVEN Student Number
Critical Thinking Questions
1. What additional safeguards must be programmed into the software that runs the SmartBeam
IMRT that aren’t necessary in typical PC software?
2. 2. How do you think the development of the SmartBeam IMRT launched Varian to the top of
the market in cancer treatment systems?
3. Make an essay (2 pages MAX), and submit the essay via share.its.ac.id H-1 before the class
