Data & Information &
Knowledge
• Data: Unorganized and
unprocessed facts; static; a set of
discrete facts about events
• Information: Aggregation of
data that makes decision
making easier
• Knowledge is derived from
information in the same way
information is derived from
data; it is a person’s range of
information

“An Information System is a set of (primarily) electronic
components that collect, analyze and disseminate data and
information to meet an objective” OR
“Interrelated components that manage information to:
• Support decision making and control
• Help with analysis, visualization, and product creation”
• Information technology:
• Any computer based tool
• Support information and information processing needs
of an organization

Functions of an Information
SystemAn information system
contains information about
an organization and its
surrounding environment.
Three basic activities—
input, processing, and
output— produce the
information organizations
need. Feedback is output
returned to appropriate
people or activities in the
organization to evaluate and
refine the input.
Environmental actors, such
as customers, suppliers,
competitors, stockholders,
and regulatory agencies,
interact with the
organization and its
information systems.

The Steroids
• Digital: all analog content and processes are being
digitized
• Mobile: thanks to wireless technologies, computing,
connecting, collaborating can be done anywhere
• Virtual: the process of shaping, manipulating, and
transmitting digitized content can be done at very
high speeds, so that users do not have to think about
these processes
• Personal: Individuals can perform all these
processes on their own computing devices
