What are the characteristics of information transmission?

The characteristic of information transmission is to transmit only the content of information, while keeping the information structure unchanged. Information transmission is the basic requirement of modern management. Strictly speaking, all information processing is the transmission of information within the organization, that is, the movement of information in physical location. Information transmission is carried out through communication channels such as words, languages, codes, images, colors, lights and smells. Information transmission modes include unidirectional transmission, bidirectional transmission, semi-bidirectional transmission and multi-channel transmission.

Information system is a data-intensive, man-machine interactive computer application system whose main purpose is to provide information services. Technically speaking, it has four characteristics: it involves a large amount of data, which generally needs to be stored in auxiliary memory, and only a small part of the data to be processed is temporarily stored in memory; Most of the data is persistent, that is, it does not disappear with the end of the program, but needs to be stored in the computer system for a long time; These persistent data are shared by multiple applications, even in a unit or a larger scope. Besides the basic functions of data collection, transmission, storage and management, it can also provide users with information services such as information retrieval, statistical report, transaction processing, planning, design, command, control, decision-making, alarm, prompt and consultation.
