Abstract: Mingers (1995) suggests a notion of ‘meaning system’ in order to clarify the relationships between data (signs), information and meaning, and their bearings on information systems (IS for short). We observe that there are a few points that need further investigation, which are centred on the basic notions of information and meaning. In this paper, we summarise seemingly the most influential studies on these two concepts in the field of information systems. We take a close look at the notion of ‘meaning system’ by drawing on theories of Dretske (1991) and Devlin (1995) in addition to Mingers (1995). We explore how this notion may be applied to IS problems by formulating one’s meaning system using an ontology language in order to improve web searching.
