1.1 Understanding of Hardware and Software

A typical personal computer consists of the following main components:


• A case or chassis in desktop or tower shape
• Motherboard or system board, including Central processing unit (CPU), Random Access Memory
(RAM), Basic Input-Output System (BIOS), and Buses
• Power supply
• Storage controllers that control hard disk, floppy disk, CD-ROM and other drives
• And others such as video display controllers, removable media writers
Applications software is a set of the programmes that enable users to perform specific information
processing activities.

1.2 Major Categories of Computers


• Mainframe: Mainframes are powerful computers used for large-scale data processing;
• Minicomputer: Minicomputers offer an intermediate stage between the power of mainframe
systems and the relatively low cost of microcomputer systems.
• Microcomputer: Microcomputers are considered less powerful than minicomputers and
mainframes, but are more flexible and relatively inexpensive to purchase; PC
• Legacy system: A system which has been superseded by new technologies or business
practices.
• Client/server: The client/server architecture consists of client computers such as PCs sharing
resources such as a database stored on a more powerful server computer;

order to manage and direct the computer’s resources.
• Utility programs: Utility programs provide a range of tools that support the operation and
management of a computer system.
• Development programs: Allow users to develop their own software in order to carry out
processing tasks;
• Applications software can be defined as a set of programs that enable users to perform
specific information-processing activities.
• Applications software can be divided into two broad categories: general-purpose and
application-specific;

1.8 Basic of Information Systems
• An information system (IS) is a set of interrelated elements that:
• Collect (input), Manipulate (process), Store, Disseminate (output) data and information
• Provide a corrective reaction (feedback mechanism) to meet an objective

• Input: activity of gathering and capturing raw data


• Processing: converting data into useful outputs
• Output: production of useful information: Usually in the form of documents and reports
• Feedback: information from the system: Used to make changes to input or processing activities

managerial, and executive.

15
CHAPTER 1. BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTER AND ITS ENVIRONMENT AND
INFORMATION SYSTEMS
1.12 Type of Decision
• Structured decisions: Decisions that are repetitive and routine and have a definite
procedure for handling them.
• Semi-structured decisions: Decisions in which only part of the problem has a clear-
cut answer provided by an accepted procedure.
• Unstructured decisions: Nonroutine decisions in which the decision maker must
provide judgment, evaluation, and insights to solve problem.

16
CHAPTER 1. BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTER AND ITS ENVIRONMENT AND

1.12 Information Systems for Manages


• Information technology enhances business
processes by:
• Increasing efficiency of existing
processes
• Automating steps that were
manual
• Enabling entirely new processes
• Change flow of information
• Replace sequential steps with parallel
steps
• Eliminate delays in decision making
• Support new business models
17
CHAPTER 1. BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTER AND ITS ENVIRONMENT AND

transactions necessary to conduct
business
• Examples: sales order entry,
payroll, shipping
• Allow managers to monitor status of
operations and relations with
external environment
• Serve predefined, structured goals
and decision making
A TPS for payroll processing captures employee payment transaction
data (such as a time card). System outputs include online and hard-
copy reports for management and employee paychecks.
18
CHAPTER 1. BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTER AND ITS ENVIRONMENT AND
INFORMATION SYSTEMS

1.14 MIS: Management Information Systems


– Serve middle management
– Provide reports on firm’s
current performance, based on
data from TPS
– Provide answers to routine
questions with predefined
procedure for answering them
– Typically have little analytic
capability In the system illustrated by this diagram, three TPS supply summarized
transaction data to the MIS reporting system at the end of the time period.
Managers gain access to the organizational data through the MIS, which
provides them with the appropriate reports.
19
CHAPTER 1. BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTER AND ITS ENVIRONMENT AND

• Support nonroutine decision making
• Example: What is the impact on
production schedule if December
sales doubled?
• May use external information as well
TPS / MIS data
• Model driven DSS: Voyage-estimating
systems
• Data driven DSS: Intrawest’s
marketing analysis systems This DSS operates on a powerful PC. It is used daily by managers who must
develop bids on shipping contracts.

1.16 ESS: Executive Support Systems
• Support Executive (senior management)
• Address nonroutine decisions
• Requiring judgment, evaluation, and
insight
• Incorporate data about external events
(e.g., new tax laws or competitors) as well
as summarized information from internal
MIS and DSS
• Example: Digital dashboard with real-time
view of firm’s financial performance:
working capital, accounts receivable,
A digital dashboard delivers comprehensive and accurate information for
accounts payable, cash flow, and decision making, often using a single screen. The graphical overview of key
inventory performance indicators helps managers quickly spot areas that need attention.

4.2 CLOUD SOURCING CONCEPT


Cloud sourcing Definition is the similar trend to outsourcing where an organization
outsources some or all of its business processes to a third-party vendor, except that in
outsourcing, the company deploys, hosts and executes a complete or vertical IT solution onto
a public or private cloud provider.
The fundamental, practical building blocks of Cloud Sourcing:
▪ SaaS: Software as a Service
▪ PaaS: Platform as a Service
▪ IaaS : Infrastructure as a Service

64
CHAPTER 4 - E-COMMERCE & CLOUD SOURCING

Software as a Service (SaaS): where computer applications are accessed over the Internet
rather than being installed on a local computing device or in a local data center

For example: Google Docs, Zoho Creator, Pixlr

65
CHAPTER 4 - E-COMMERCE & CLOUD SOURCING

Platform as a Service (PaaS): a software environment used to develop and run applications.
For example: Microsoft Word is an application that runs on the Microsoft Windows platform

66
CHAPTER 4 - E-COMMERCE & CLOUD SOURCING

Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS): where a cloud supplier provides online infrastructure for data storage or
application running.
For example: whilst the Microsoft Word application runs on the Microsoft Windows platform, in turn the
Microsoft Windows platform runs on the infrastructure of an IBM-compatible PC.
