Week 5

Week 5 was very tough, we had to learn many things at the same time and the second reason is that they were all new things to me, so It's obvious I had to focus more in those things.Week 5 was related to week 4, we continued with the Types of IS which are:(TPS), (MIS), (DSS), (ESS) & (Office Support System, Knowledge Work System).

Then, we moved on to the 3 levels of  IS , shown in a Pyramidal form (graph).The role and importance of IS, main user of IS and it's Features were also some of the main things we discussed about in week 5. And, after finishing IS we continued with MIS (Management Information System) & as usually we talked about the main role of MIS, importance of it, features, usage and so on with (TPS, DSS, ESS & OSS).

After this we had to go to the library and do a research on these question: -How does a Decision support system (DSS) work  to support  business?- How does a DSS differ from Transaction Processing System (TPS)?


...and we had to submit our answers to the lecturer for the further check in the end of the class.
