The
basic understanding of ICT:
-
Information and communications technology (ICT) is often used as an extended
synonym for information technology (IT).
-
IT is a more expansive term (i.e. more broad in scope) that stresses the role
of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications
(telephone lines and wireless signals), computers as well as necessary
enterprise software, middleware, storage, and audio-visual
systems, which enable users to access, store, transmit, and manipulate
information.
-
The term ICT is also used to refer to the convergence of audio-visual and
telephone networks with computer networks through a single cabling or link
system.
-
There are large economic incentives (huge cost savings due to elimination of
the telephone network) to merge the telephone network with the computer network
system using a single unified system of cabling, signal distribution and
management.
-
However, ICT has no universal definition, as "the concepts, methods and
applications involved in ICT are constantly evolving on an almost daily basis.” - The
broadness of ICT covers any product that will store, retrieve, manipulate,
transmit or receive information electronically in a digital form, e.g. personal
computers, digital television, email, robots.
