Management information systems process raw data from office processing systems, such as desktop computers and mobile applications, and transaction processing systems, such as retail point-of-sale systems. The output is sometimes in the form of reports that present aggregated data, which facilitates analysis and decision making.
The cellulose fibers are stuck together with a natural glue called lignin.. When the lignin is removed and the cellulose fibers are separated and reorganized, paper can be made. It's also possible to make paper from a variety of other types of plant fibers, such as cotton, flax, bamboo, and hemp.
From the finest quality paper through to the thickest, strongest corrugated carton, the manufacturing process for this renewable resource is the same: the wood must first be shredded and mixed with water to make pulp. The pulp is then refined, cleaned and agitated before being pumped onto a moving screen or mesh. As the pulp travels along the screen, excess water is drained away and recycled. A paper sheet made from interlocking cellulose fibres begins to form.
