Data
is any unorganized raw facts
Information
is data that has been processed in
a meaningful and useful way.
Database
is an organized collection of
related
tables and other structures.
Database Management System (DBMS)
is a
computer program used to create, process, and
manage the database.

Database Concepts
Slide 5
Data Type
Data usually consists of text, numbers, currency, and dates.
Logical data – Only “yes” or “no” answers are allowed Objects – Non-textual data
Binary large objects (BLOBs) – Very large objects
Default value – Pre-defined values such as today’s date
Operations of Database
Create Database
Drop Database
Create Table
Drop Table
Insert Table
Update Table
Delete Table
Query Table
Types of Database Programs
File Management Programs:
Create flat files containing one file or table
Files can not be linked to other files
Are easy to use and customize
Are not as complex as database management systems
Database Management Systems
(
DBMS
):
Contain multiple files or tables
Are programs that enable data to be stored, modified, and extracted from a database
Are more difficult to learn than file management systems
Types of Database Programs
Components of DBMS
Slide 9
Relational Database Management Systems
Relational database management systems are the most widely used type of DBMS.

Data Warehousing and Data Mining
Data Warehousing:
Supplements DBMSs by bringing together all data into one huge database
Organizes management’s decision-making process
Uses a technique called drill-down to view performance data of the entire company
Data marts support one division of an organization rather than an entire firm.
Data Mining:
Is a data exploration technique

Client/Server Database Systems
Data server – Professionally administered program that runs on a local area network (LAN). It responds to requests for data.
Client – A user-friendly program that accesses the server. Users can add data, maintain records, perform queries, and generate reports.
Clients request data using a query language called

The Internet Connection: Going Public With Data
Web-based integration is the latest trend in database software.

Advantages of Database Management Systems
Data integrity is the validity of the data.
Data validation defines acceptable
input ranges for each field.
Types of data validation are: Alphabetic check
Numeric check
Range check
Consistency check
Completeness check
Data independence refers to how
data is stored so that it can be used with different types of application programs.
Avoidance of data
redundancy refers to
avoiding the repetition of data.
Data security is the unavailability of data to people who would misuse it.
Data is also protected from
loss due to equipment failure.
Data maintenance refers
to the procedures for adding, updating, and deleting records.
The areas of importance for building a quality database are:
Data integrity
Data independence
Avoidance of data redundancy
Data security

Information Systems: Tools for Global
Competitiveness
An information system is designed to bring data,
computers, procedures, and people together to manage information important to an organization’s mission.
To be valuable, information must be:

Computerized Information Systems
A computerized information system (CIS):
Includes data, hardware, software, trained personnel, and procedures
Collects critical data, processes the data, stores the data, and disseminates information throughout the organization

Techniques of Information Reduction
Controlling information is important to keep people from being overwhelmed by it.
Control methods in an information system include:
Routing information
Summarizing information
Enabling selectivity

Transaction Processing Systems (TPSs)
TPSs handle an organization’s accounting needs.
Early TPSs used batch processing systems.
Online processing consists of entering transaction data and viewing the results immediately.
TPSs enable managers to make operational decisions.
© 2005 Prentice-Hall, Inc Slide 19
Management Information Systems (MISs)
MISs are computer-based systems that support the information needs of different levels of management.
MISs help management make informed tactical decisions.
MISs work with transaction processing systems.
MISs inform managers if their goals are being met.
Drawbacks of MISs:
Reports may contain unwanted information
Information may not be available when needed
© 2005 Prentice-Hall, Inc Slide 20
Decision Support Systems (DSSs)
DSSs enable managers to ask questions that can’t be answered by MIS reports.
© 2005 Prentice-Hall, Inc Slide 21
Executive Information Systems (EISs)
EISs are also known as executive support systems
(ESSs).
EISs support strategic decisions made by top level management that will affect the entire company.

Expert Systems
Expert systems are systems that deal with expert knowledge in a particular area.
Expert systems:
Help in making decisions
Use artificial intelligence principles

Computers and Databases in the Retail Sector
Computers and databases are used for the checkout process and strategic purposes.
At the checkout counter:
Point of sale terminals are replacing the cash register.
Optical scanners read the universal product code (UPC) label that identifies items, their costs, and any sale prices.
Credit card authorization terminals are used to process credit card transactions by placing a call to a call center

Computers and Databases in the Retail Sector
At the checkout counter (continued):
Check-screening systems read the check’s account number, then compare it with delinquent accounts.
Signature capture systems capture a customer’s signature on a pressure sensitive pad.
