System

From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.

System (Latin word is (systēma)) is a group of related things, which can be real or imaginary, and that work with each other. A subsystem is a little system within a big system. Systems are things made by people to organize ideas, groups, people, and anything else, but systems can also be real things, like a car's engine.

[edit] Types of systems

There are many kinds of systems. A system can refer to:

• Computer systems, like systems of counting or finding things
• Systems in planning, like finding out how a design to fix a bridge should be carried out.
• Systems in social science, like the way humans talk, think, and feel.
• Systems in mangagment and business, such as ideas about parts of companies
• Systems in nature, such as the life cycle or carbon cycle.
• Systems in science, like the solar system.

[edit] What systems do

Systems are a way to describe a set of items, or people, or things that are related, and most systems describe ways of making them work together, or why they work together alredy. Some systems are nothing more than a different way of looking at a problem, or thinking about a job being done.

Other systems are more like organizing books on a shelf, so that people can find things more simply, without having to search. These can be systems about how to program computers or manage people.
