TYPE OF INFORMATION SYSTEM OR IS

     Information System is a big area system which includes many subgroups. In order to know efficiently, we should concern about types of IS. In the same time, we will further know information about IS from a particular system. Definitely, it is very complicated to understand, but it could be covered by our ability. Here we go through one by one.
     - IS includes two big systems, which contain Management Support System that supports management decision-making and Operation Support System that supports business operation.
     - Flow of information between management levels



TRANSACTION PROCESSING SYSTEM (TPS)

     - TPS is the system records the data from everyday operations throughout every department in the organization. Each department is connected through the TPS to provide useful information to management levels throughout the company.
      - Features of TPS
            1. One TPS for one department.
2. Used by operational and supervisory levels.
3. Monitor, collect, store and process data generated from Business Trend.
4. TPS is the backbone of an organization's IS.
      - There are three components for TPS. they are people, hardware and software.
      - TPS function
 
MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (MIS)

- MIS is an integrated collection of people, procedures, databases and devices that provide managers and decision makers with information to help organization achieve goals.
- The function of MIS is proving managers with information about operations of the organization. So that they can control, organize, and plan more effective.
 
DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM (DSS)

- DSS is an organized collection of people, procedures, software, databases and devices used to support problem-specific decision making.
- DSS provides a flexible tool for analysis.
- Features of DSS
1. Internal and external input
2. Support unstructured problems
            3. Handle large amounts of data from different sources
4. Tactical manager or middle manager
- DSS consists four parts. they are users, software, decision model and data.

EXECUTIVE SUPPORT SYSTEM (ESS) or EXECUTIVE INFORMATION SYSTEM (EIS)

- EIS is the combination of TPS, MIS and DSS.
- Features of EIS
1. Top managers or executives
2. Support higher level of decision making in organization.
3. Analyze the environment and identify long-term trends.


EXPERT SYSTEM (ES)

- An expert system is computer software that attempts to act like a human expert on a particular subject area.
- An expert system is made up of three parts:
            1. A user interface - This is the system that allows a non-expert user to query (question) the expert system, and to receive advice. The user-interface is designed to be a simple to use as possible.
            2. A knowledge base - This is a collection of facts and rules. The knowledge base is created from information provided by human experts
            3.An inference engine - This acts rather like a search engine, examining the knowledge base for information that matches the user's query.
      
     To conclude, there are so many system under the information system. What I have learned is the differences between each system, how they are related with each other. Furthermore, the way to get the useful output from those system in strengthening decision. Nevertheless, I hope all the readers will get more understanding from this post.
