Information Systems are a large class of computer applications which revolve around information as a resource. The World Wide Web (WWW) is the most popular and biggest information system available today. Many other information systems are designed as stand-alone systems, but increasingly are integrated into the Web architecture, leveraging the popularity and global availability of the Web. Because of this integration, it is important to understand the Web as an information system, rather than a delivery system for Web pages.
