Information systems:- Information System include databases that include useful "information". Information Systems is the discipline concerned with the development, use, application and influence of information systems. An information system, following a definition of Langefors, is a technologically implemented medium for recording, storing, and disseminating linguistic expressions, as well as for drawing conclusions from such expressions. The technology used for implementing information systems by no means has to be computer technology. A notebook in which one lists certain items of interest is, according to that definition, an information system. Likewise, there are computer applications that do not comply with this definition of information systems. Embedded systems are an example.

Embedded Systems:-

Embedded systems include small computers that make things work, such as the computer in your radio, television or the computer that controls your vehicle engine. An embedded system is a computer systems that is part of a larger system.

Examples: * Washing machine * Car engine control * Mobile phone ES Characteristics

* Often mass products * 98% of the processors are in ES * Sometimes very specialized systems * No or minimal user interface * Resource constraints * Must usually fulfill strict timing * Usually runs forever (no reboot) For further reading refer to this- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_Systems
