Study Notes
Information Systems Overview
- Input and Output: Submitting data for processing is termed "Input," while the processed result is "Output."
- Information System: A collection of components that includes input, processing, storage, and output of information.
Importance of Data Storage
- Data storage is crucial in information systems, allowing both input and stored data to generate useful information.
- The main functions of an information system are to receive, process, store data, and provide results as needed.
Example of Information Systems
- ATM (Automatic Teller Machine): Processes inserted bank cards to provide account balance information.
- Fingerprint Reader: Records attendance by capturing the time of arrival and departure.
QR Codes
- QR codes can be scanned by smartphones, leading to more information accessible online; commonly used in advertisements and products.
Medical Equipment Examples
- ECG Machine: Monitors heartbeats by recording electrical impulses produced during heart activity.
- Cardiac Screening Machine: Displays the heart's physiology and diagnoses issues, such as narrowing of veins.
- EEG Machine: Records brain activity through electrical probes, working when the patient is either awake or asleep.
- Blood Sugar Testing Machine: Analyzes blood samples to determine glucose levels.
- Blood Pressure Measuring Machine: Worn as a wristband, it measures blood pressure during rest and activities.
Human Resource Management Technologies
- Fingerprint Scanners and Card Readers: Streamline attendance tracking, salary preparation, and leave record maintenance for employees, utilized in both private and public sectors.
E-Banking
- Convenience of E-Banking: Allows cash withdrawals through ATMs, bill payments, and inter-banking transactions at any time and place.
Online Shopping
- Electronic Commerce: Enables consumers to buy goods and services online, providing 24/7 access and home delivery options, enhancing convenience and reducing travel.
ICT in Transport
- CCTV: Monitors road traffic, accidents, and illegal activities, allowing for active management responses.
- Traffic Light Control System: Automates traffic lights at intersections to reduce accidents.
- Parking Identification Placard: Uses sensors to grant access to pre-registered vehicles, preventing traffic congestion at entry points.
ICT in Entertainment
- Proliferation of ICT devices allows individuals to:
- Listen to music and watch preferred TV content online.
- Connect with friends via social media.
- Access high-definition video and educational content.
- Read e-books and store personal photographs digitally.
Generational Evolution of Computers
- First Generation (1940-1956):
- Utilized vacuum tubes and machine language.
- Characteristics included high heat generation, slow processing, and large size.
- Notable systems: ENIAC, EDVAC, EDSAC, UNIVAC, IBM 701.
