Introduction

What is information system

The term Information System (IS) refers to information technology that is used by people to accomplish
a specified organizational or individual objective. The technology may be used in the gathering,
processing, storing, and/or dissemination of information, and the users are trained in the use of that
technology, as well as in the procedures to be followed in doing so. The specific technologies that
collectively comprise information technology are computer technology and data communications
technology

HISTORY OF INFORMATION SYSTEMS

The study of information systems originated as a sub-discipline of computer science in an attempt to


understand and rationalize the management of technology within organizations. It has matured into a
major field of management that is increasingly being emphasized as an important area of research in
management studies, and is taught at all major universities and business schools in the world. Börje
Langefors introduced the concept of "Information Systems" at the third International Conference on
Information Processing and Computer Science in New York in 1965.
