Information is a term with many meanings depending on context, but is as a rule closely related to such concepts as meaning, knowledge, communication, representation, and mental stimulus.
Information is a message, something to be communicated from the sender to the receiver, as opposed to noise, which is something that inhibits the flow of communication or creates misunderstanding.

An Executive Information System (EIS) is a tool that provides direct on-line access to relevant information in a useful and navigable format.
