Basic Components of IS
  • Hardware The term hardware refers to machinery.
    This category includes the computer itself, which
    is often referred to as the central processing
    unit (CPU), and all of its support equipments.
    Among the support equipments are input and output
    devices, storage devices and communications
    devices.
  • 2. Software The term software refers to computer
    programs and the manuals (if any) that support
    them. Computer programs are machine-readable
    instructions that direct the circuitry within the
    hardware parts of the system to function in ways
    that produce useful information from data.
    Programs are generally stored on some input /
    output medium, often a disk or tape.
  • 3. Data Data are facts that are used by programs
    to produce useful information. Like programs,
    data are generally stored in machine-readable
    form on disk or tape until the computer needs
    them.

Basic Components of IS (Contt.)
4. Procedures Procedures are the policies that
govern the operation of a computer system.
"Procedures are to people what software is to
hardware" is a common analogy that is used to
illustrate the role of procedures in a
system. 5. People Every system needs people if
it is to be useful. Often the most over-looked
element of the system are the people, probably
the component that most influence the success or
failure of information systems. 6. Feedback it
is another component of the IS, that defines that
an IS may be provided with a feedback.
