System approach
Introduction
A systems approach is especially necessary for the planning and control
functions of management. Any system includes not only the set of objects or
elements necessary to attain system goals but attributes of those objects and
elements and relationships among them. A system is not just an orderly
arrangement of parts but an ongoing process that consists of diverse elements
and their interrelationships Furthermore, each system includes interconnected
subsystems, each of has an objective that advances goals of the large system.
(Hodge and Anthony, 1984.)

System approach
Types of system
System can be classified as natural or man- made, static or dynamic,
deterministic or probabilistic, open or close, centralized or decentralized,
internal or external
A static one that constitutes a steady state, in which neither system element nor
the total system changes in relation to its environment.
70
System approach
A deterministic system has a single result or set of set of results given a set of
input parameters, while a probabilistic system will have results that vary.
Open system a system that receives inputs of energy and matter and then outputs
materials into surrounding environments is termed: (e.g. systems in human
body), an open system interact with environment, materials or energies with
surrounding.
Closed System a system that is shut off from the surrounding environment and is
self-contained is termed: (e.g. the earth system)."It is characterized by fixed,
automatic relationships among system components and no give and take with
environment
71
System approach
Internally focused systems mainly address the internal processes and decision
making systems of an organization.
A purposeful system is one that can produce the same outcomes different ways
in the same internal or external state and can change its goals under constant
conditions; it can select ends and means; and it displays intentionality.
2- To be defined as a system the portion of the world isolated for study must
exhibit some predictability.
3-The central objective of any system can de identified by the system operator's
willingness to sacrifice other goals to ensure its realization.

System Errors
The System Error Codes are very broad. Each one can occur in one of many
hundreds of locations in the system. Consequently the descriptions of these
codes cannot be very specific. Use of these codes requires some amount of
investigation and analysis.

Types
Application program errors are errors in logic detected during processing. These
errors relate to an application, that is, an ECB. The application detects the error
and chooses the necessary corrective action. When an application detects an
error, it can either:
Violation of the rules of the z/TPF system. For example, a macro is issued to
retrieve a storage block on a data level that is already holding a block.
Violation of hardware rules. These can be subdivided as follows:
o A software logic error causes the program new PSW to be loaded, for example,
a hard error occurs.
o A hardware operation fails because of erroneous software input. For example,
an I/O operation is initiated to retrieve a record, and the device address
specified is wrong. The hardware then reports the error back to the software for
it to process.
