Slide Presentasi Chapter 3 Principles of Information SystemsTRANSCRIPT
Principles of Information Systems, Seventh Edition 2
• Assembling an effective, efficient computer system requires an understanding of its relationship to the information system and the organization. The computer system objectives are subordinate to, but supportive of, the information system and the needs of the organization
• Describe how to select and organize computer system components to support information system (IS) objectives and business organization needs
Principles of Information Systems, Seventh Edition 3
• When selecting computer devices, you also must consider the current and future needs of the information system and the organization. Your choice of a particular computer system device should always allow for later improvements
• Describe the power, speed, and capacity of central processing and memory devices
• Describe the access methods, capacity, and portability of secondary storage devices
• Discuss the speed, functionality, and importance of input and output devices
• Identify popular classes of computer systems and discuss the role of each
