Synthesis of An MIS Structure

The document summarizes the conceptual and physical structures of a Management Information System (MIS). The conceptual structure divides the MIS into four information processing components: strategic planning, management control, operational control, and transaction processing. These components are organized into functional subsystems. The physical structure can be implemented through integrated processing, where related applications are designed as a single system, or through the use of common modules inserted into all programs needing the same functions. This allows for simplifying interconnections and reducing duplications.

Synthesis of an MIS structure
• The MIS structure has been
described in terms of support for
decision making, management
activity and organizational
functions.

Synthesis of an MIS structure
• We can divide the MIS structure
into
• (1) Conceptual structure
• (2) Physical structure
Conceptual Structure
• The conceptual structure of an MIS
is defined as a federation of
functional subsystem, each of
which is divided into four
information processing
components:
• (1) Strategic planning
• (2) Management control
• (3) Operational control
• (4) Transaction Processing

Physical Structure
• The physical structure of an MIS
would be identical to the
conceptual structure if all
applications consisted of
completely separate programs used
by only one function.
Physical Structure

• We can implement two methods to


achieve substantial economies :
• (1) Integrated processing
• (2) Use of common modules
Integrated processing
• Integrated processing is achieved
by designing several related
applications as a single system in
order to simplify the
interconnections and reduce
duplications of input.
