Definition:

A tag is a non-hierarchical keyword or term assigned to a piece of information (such as an internet bookmark, digital image, or computer files). This kind of metadata helps describe an item and allows it to be found again by browsing or searching. Tags are generally chosen informally and personally by the item's creator or by its viewer, depending on the system. Tagging was popularized by websites associated with Web 2.0 and is an important feature of many Web 2.0 services. It is now also part of some desktop software. Tagged is an interactive social experience for people like you. It's a place to come every day to meet new people, hang out with your friends, and show off what you're all about!

What is tagging and how does it work?


A tag is a special kind of link. When you tag someone, you create a link to their timeline. The post you tag the person in may also be added to that persons timeline. For example, you can tag a photo to show whos in the photo or post a status update and say who youre with. If you tag a friend in your status update, anyone who sees that update can click on your friends name and go to their timeline. Your status update may also show up on that friends timeline. When you tag someone, they'll be notified. Also, if you or a friend tags someone in your post and the post is set to Friends or more, the post could be visible to the audience you selected plus friends of the tagged person. If you've been invited by a friend to join Tagged, accept the invitation to add them to your Friends list and get started! Fill out a personal profile with your photos, your likes and dislikes, favorite music, movies, and anything else you want people to know about you. Then, invite your own friends to join Tagged, or meet other cool people on Tagged and add them as your friends!

Website
After registering a free account, Tagged users can customize their profile page, to which they can post a biography about themselves and their interests, post status updates to inform their friends of their whereabouts and actions, upload photos and albums, and send and receive messages from other users. Users can see which other users have recently viewed their profile. Tagged allows users to send and receive notifications for "Luv", "Winks" and "Meet Me", a rating engine that allows users to rate the attractiveness of photos submitted by others.

Social games
Social games on Tagged differ from those on other social networking services, because players are encouraged to make new friends through the games . In May 2010, Tagged opened its own in-house gaming division . Leading the division is Andrew Pedersen, former vice president of the Pogo division of Electronic Arts. Tagged plans to create more social games, several of which are already in development. Together with its acquisition of Digsby, Taggeds focus on social games signals an attempt to add more social communication options to its platform.

Child safety
Initially targeted at US teens, Tagged was opened to users worldwide aged 13 and older in October 2006 and still maintains security measures for users under 18. Users over 16 and the public cannot view the profiles of 13 and 14 year olds, and profiles for 1516 year olds are private to the public and to users over 18. The only way to add teens as friends is by knowing the email address or surnames to request the friendship, and the younger user must accept the friendship request. However, the security measures are not entirely successful

What is database management system? Write down its importance in modern business ?
A collection of programs that enables you to store, modify, and extract information from a database. There are many different types of DBMSs, ranging from small systems that run on personal computers to huge systems that run on mainframes. Thousands of companies depend on the accurate recording, updating and tracking of their data on a minute-to-minute basis. Employees use this data to complete accounting reports, calculate sales estimates and invoice customers. The workers access this data through a computerized database. A proven method to manage the relationships between the various database elements is the use of a relational database management system.

Data Access
Modern relational database management system programs use a programming language known as structured query language to access, update and delete data within its tables. These programs, including Microsoft's SQL Server and the open-source MySQL systems, allow outside programs to access its data via SQL queries. For instance, a web site can display product data, including photos, prices and descriptions, when the web server software connects to the data contained in the relational database management system.

Data Relationships
One of the most important aspects of an relational database management system program is how it allows different data tables to relate to each other. When a database contains a table with employee data on its sales staff and another with data on its product sales, the relational database management system can manage the relationship between the two tables.
9

This relationship can help management determine which salesperson has the highest sales totals and which product that salesperson is selling the most.

Data Updates
A fully-functional relational database management system allows users to enter new information, update current records and delete outdated data. As an example, when a salesperson sells 1,000 units, that person will enter the transaction information into the relational database management system. The data can include the salesperson's name, the customer information, the product sold and the quantity sold. The relational database management system enters a new record in the customer table, updates the salesperson's record and subtracts 1,000 units from the inventory record.

Data Searches
The relational database management system also ensures that a company can build and maintain its data over the system's lifetime. The various tables in the relational database management system allow users to search through the system using any available criteria. Customers can search a product table by name, brand, price, color or any other feature. The system stores data in a predictable, sequential format, enabling users to look up previous records with relative ease.

Difference between TPS and ECS


SL NO 1

TPS
A transaction process system (TPS) is an information processing system for business transactions involving the collection, modification and retrieval of all transaction data. Characteristics of a TPS include performance, reliability and consistency.TPS is also known as transaction processing or real-time processing. An example of a transaction processing system commonly used in business are the systems employed by major credit card companies found in almost every retail store.

ECS
An Enterprise Collaboration System (ECS) is an information system used to facilitate efficient sharing of documents and knowledge between teams and individuals in an enterprise. ECS tools include the Internet, groupware, various forms of software and hardware and internal and external networks. ECS functions optimally in a collaborative working environment (CWE).

Some examples of enterprise communication tools include e-mail, videoconferencing, collaborative document sharing, project management tools and others. The objective of an ECS is to provide each user with the tools for managing communications, documents and other information that individuals need to manage their own tasks efficiently in their departments Transaction processing system play a Enterprise collaboration enables vital role in supporting the operations of employees in an organization to share an e-business enterprise. information with one another and work together on projects from different geographic locations through a combination of software technologies, networking capabilities and collaborative processes. TPS support business processes, mainly In a collaboration system, business accounting & finance transactions, with users can trade knowledge, store and some sales, personnel, & exchange files, create and jointly modify documents, and interact with production activities as well. each other in real time in collaborative workspaces TPS provide all the information needed In order to enable effective by organizational policies to keep the collaboration, however, the selected business running properly and efficiently. tools must be easy to use and accessible so users will engage with the system and use it on a regular basis.

Management information systems (MIS) One approach by which organizations can utilize computing capability is through the development of MIS. There is no universally accepted definition of MIS and those that exist reflect the emphasis and perhaps prejudices of their authors. However, the term "management information system" can be seen as a database management system tailored to the needs of managers or decision makers in an organization. MIS is a system using formalized procedures to provide management at all levels in all functions with appropriate information based on data from both internal and external sources, to enable them to make timely and effective decisions for planning, directing and controlling the activities for which they are responsible (Argyrols, 1991). It will be noted from the above definition that the emphasis is on the uses to which the information is put. Planning, directing and controlling are the essential ingredients for "management". In essence, the processing of data into information and communicating the resulting information to the user is the key function of MIS. It should, therefore, be noted that MIS exist in organizations in order to help them achieve objectives, to plan and control their processes and operations, to help deal with uncertainty, and to help in adapting to change or, indeed, initiating change. The question one may then ask is: What are the management functions that MIS facilitates and what is the various decision levels at which management information can be put into use? It is through a thorough answer to this question that the importance of MIS in management can be realized. However, before we can examine management functions, it is essential we discuss organization processes and structures.

12

The importance of MIS to management


In all but the smallest organizations management rarely observe operations directly. They attempt to make decisions, prepare plans and control activities by using information which they obtain from formal sources - for example, the organization's MIS - and also by informal means such as face-to-face conversations, telephone calls, through social contacts and so on. A management information system is generally thought of as an integrated, user-machine system providing information to support operations, management and decision-making functions in an organization. As a matter of fact, an MIS is a special-purpose system useful for management in an organization. MIS is an accessible and rapid conveyor belt for appropriate high quality information from its generation to its users. The heart of an effective MIS, therefore, is a carefully conceived, designed and executed database. Its level corresponds to adaptive decisions. The characteristics of MIS in practice include:

an information focus, designed for managers in an organization; structured information flow; an integration of data processing jobs by business function, such as production of MIS, personnel MIS and so on; and Inquiry and report generation, usually with a database.

The MIS era has eventually contributed a new level of needed management information. The increasing interest in MIS had led to much activity in developing techniques and software for data management. However, it should be noted that the new thrust in MIS is on the uses to which the information is put and not how it is processed. The emphasis is on managing the information as a resource, which is

13

important, and not on the intermediate processing stage. Managements are faced with an accelerating rate of change and an ever more complex environment. Managers need relevant information, which is information that increases their knowledge and reduces their uncertainty. Thus it is usable by the manager for its intended purpose. Without relevant information, no manager can function effectively. A worthwhile extension to the wellknown adage that "management get things done through people," would be that management get things done through people, by using relevant information retrieved from MIS. It is not an exaggeration to state that MIS is the lifeblood of management. Let us look at what management information systems can do to management in two different settings - in an organization and in a library. The efficient performance of an organization is dependent very much on the internal performance of the organization's resources. To illustrate the use of a management information system in monitoring the performance of resources, the following examples from the human resource aspect of a management information system will suffice. An organization's output performance is directly related to the motivation and performance of its human resources. A high staff turnover rate which is monitored by the management information system and identified as occurring in a particular department or in a particular category of staff can indicate poor performance on the part of the employer. Also, a high turnover rate of clerical staff may indicate that management practices do not assist in providing for career progression, personal development or training opportunities. Through the identification of poor human resource
14

management, corrective measures may be taken which will in turn improve the organization's output performance. In a library setting, MIS is the cement that binds together the various elements of a library's organization with one another and with the library's objective of serving its clientele. It provides data necessary for the daily operations of a library as well as for the information, validation and implementation of models. Ideally, it provides information about the effectiveness of library services and operations; about the population of users and the population of non-users; about the library-user interaction and about other relevant factors. Thus, the role of MIS in the library is not too different from what it is in any other organization. It specifically helps in the provision of information that will enable library management to have an overview of their performance and to set in motion, when necessary, machinery for improved and efficient services to users.

5. DSS, many consider, is an advancement from the original MISWhile there may not be too much separating the two, the difference is still there,as is apparent when we say DSS is an advancement over MIS. 6. The essential difference between the two is in focus. DSS, as the term indicates, is about leadership and senior management in an organization providing good, reliable judgment as well as vision. MIS, on the other hand, is about focusing on the actual flow of information itself.

7.One of the finest differences between MIS and DSS is that MIS focuses on operational efficiency whereas DSS focuses more on making effective decision or in other words helping the company to do the right thing. Flow of information is from both sides, up and down in the case of MIS. On the other flow of information is only upward in the case of DSS. 8.In the case of DSS the report can be flexible whereas in the case of MIS the report is usually not flexible. MIS is characterized by an input of large volume of data, an output of summary reports and process characterized by a simple model. On the other hand DSS is featured by an input of low volume of data, an output of decision analysis and a process characterized by interactive model. 9.DSS focuses more on leadership. It is all about senior management in a firm providing innovative vision. Experts on managerial behavior say that DSS focuses more on decision making.

On the other hand MIS focuses more on the information gathered and the information that has poured from different quarters. MIS focuses more on planning the report of various topics concerned with the organization that would assist the managers to take vital decisions pertaining to the functioning of the organization.
