DATA VS INFORMATION & INFORMATION SYSTEM


DATA VS INFORMATION


Data represents facts of any kind. In the process of recording important particulars of any event, it is the discretion of the management, what should be recorded and how it should be presented.

However when this data is processed or reformatted, it becomes information. Information is a subset of data which adds to the knowledge.

Information Systems

Interrelated components working together to collect, process, store and disseminate information to support decision making, coordination control, analysis and visualization in an organization.
