Abstract: Abstract We are surrounded by systems. Our bodies are made up of various systems such as a digestive system and a central nervous system. We live on a planet that is part of the solar system. We engage with people in groups that form social, political and economic systems. We are educated in the use of number systems. Various forms of human organisation would collapse without information systems.
