Even with the presence of active research communities that study information system design, the term information system (IS) still lacks precise formal underpinnings. Unlike for databases, there is no agreement on what constitutes "IS principles." Any significantly advanced IS contains some kind of a database system. On the other hand, any useful database system is actually an IS, providing additional services beyond simply maintaining data and running queries and updates. As a result, the distinction between issues related to databases and to ISs tends to get blurred, and it is not clear that the principles underlining the study of ISs should be different than those for databases. In this paper we argue that the interactive aspect of ISs necessitates a fundamentally different set of IS design principles, as compared to conventional database design. We provide some promising directions for a formal study of IS models, based on the observation that interactive behaviors cannot be reduced to algorithmic behaviors.
