A set of interrelated components that collect, manipulate, store, and distribute data and information and provide a feedback mechanism to meet an objective. ´Information systems are everywhere. An air traveler checks in for a flight using a booth, which sends the check-in information to a network to verify the traveler’s reservation and flight information. The terminal processes the information and prints a boarding pass, speeding airport check-in times.
Data, Information and Knowledge
Raw facts, such as an employee number, total hours worked in a week, inventory part numbers, or sales orders. ´Information A collection of facts organized in such a way that they have additional value beyond the value of the individual facts. The process of defining relationships among data to create useful information requires knowledge. The awareness and understanding of a set of information and ways that information can be made useful to support a specific task or reach a decision.
