The combination of information technology, data, procedures for processing data, and people who collect and use the data Information systems also include automation systems, which perform tasks that had been done manually; transaction processing systems, which process and record business activities; management systems, which supply information to managers; and strategic systems, which support the implementation of organizational theory
An information system is a data processing system that engages in collecting, processing, editing, storing, transmitting and supplying data relating to a certain area of application The term information system is normally used in a narrower sense to refer to an automated system, It then refers to the applications in combination with the IT infrastructure In a wider sense the information system includes all the procedures and resources in connection with the data of a certain area of application A non-automated administrative system is therefore an information system, too
1) The entire infrastructure, organization, personnel, and components for the collection, processing, storage, transmission, display, dissemination, and disposition of information 2) All the electronic and human components involved in the collection, processing, storage, transmission, display, dissemination, and disposition of information An IS may be automated (e g , a computerized information system) or manual (e g , a library's card catalog)
The entire infrastructure, organization, and components that collect, process, store, transmit, display, disseminate, and act on information
This describes a system designed to produce information that can be used to support the activities of managers and other workers
