Abstract

VEGA-PEREZ, Carlos A; GRAJALES-LOMBANA, Henry A  and  MONTOYA RESTREPO, Luz Alexandra. Information systems: definitions, applications and limiting of the colombian sheep production. Orinoquia [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.1, pp.64-72. ISSN 0121-3709.  https://doi.org/10.22579/20112629.395.

The fast and efficient access to reliable and accurate information allows adopting a suitable position when making a decision to troubleshoot a lower cost; information is thus a figurative substance, and can appoint certain positions on it: possession, accumulation, excess (“overload”), distributive inequality (“the haves and have-nots”), measurement, the “commoditization”, and so on, before understanding per se the use of information systems. It is unquestionable that many people are deriving great advantages of these new sources of knowledge borrowed from networks and information systems, as part of what is now called the “quaternary sector of the economy”. The data, information and knowledge are links in a cyclic chain where the last link in the chain fed, while the resource value and contribution and human involvement are increasing. The purpose of this review is to provide an understanding of information systems and the current focus as a tool for improving the competitiveness of the Colombian domestic sheep industry.
