Information System Resources:

  • The information system resources are shown below:
    • People Resources:
      • People are vital for information system operations.
      • It includes end users as well as IS specialists.
      • The end users use an information system or data it produces.
      • The IS specialists develop as well as operate information systems.
      • It includes system analysts, computer operators as well as clerical IS personnel.
    • Hardware Resources:
      • It comprises physical devices as well as materials used for information processing.
      • It includes machines, such as computers and other equipment plus data media.
      • The computer systems contain central processing unit that has microprocessors and different interconnected devices.
      • The computer peripherals are devices such as keyboard, mouse and disks for storage.
    • Software Resources:
      • It includes all set of instructions for information processing.
      • It contains set of operating instructions named programs that directs and controls computer hardware.
