Abstract

Information systems is both a technical term for a particular kind of dynamic systems, and for a comparatively young discipline within informatics. The paper is an introduction to the latter, in particular as computer-assisted information systems are concerned, and an attempt is made to delineate its still somewhat fluid boundaries. A number of topics are introduced and illustrated by examples, and some relevant and pressing problem areas are identified.
