    The key takeaways are that information systems need to evolve with technology in order to remain competitive and add value to organizations, and that information resource management is important for both individual systems and the organization as a whole.

    The main topics covered in the course include information economics, information control, transactional vs analytical processing, information engineering, applications and integrations, current issues in IT and emerging technologies, and information systems risk management.

    Some of the techniques discussed for managing information resources effectively include maintaining the status quo, going beyond the status quo to add value, recognizing the importance of information resource management, and using creative techniques.

    Information Resource Management Information systems can either maintain the status quo (and thus be considered only

    as a necessary cost item) or go beyond it to add value to the organization. Considering the rapid evolution in the state of the art and the state of the practice, maintaining the status quo generally results in falling behind the competition. It is important that both computer professionals and computer consumers recognize that information resource management is increasingly important in the success not only of individual information systems but also of the whole organization. This course will investigate the main aspects necessary for organizational information resource management and creative techniques for profitably managing information resources.
