#1. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

Hello Steemit!!

After a long while I am writing my second post, hope you all will support me with your valuable upvotes and comments!!

This post is about the Contribution of Information Technology in Social Life and Industrial Applications, which I liked reading through. Hence I just wanted to share it with you all so that you all can go through..

Information technology has become the most dynamic area in human life today. In social life, from education, entertainment to economic development programme, everywhere information processing gives direction for plans and programmes. The world has become a global village with the power of communication technology. Physical location is no barrier for communication .power of computers and communication technology has refined information technology and has brought a new dimension in its use. A business cannot run with information flow. The visualisation of importance of timely information has created new atmosphere for intensive research and development programme for evolving new techniques and tools in the field of information technology. This is why we call that the present age is the age of information.

We see the marvellous power of computer and it has grabbed all areas of modern life . its speed, accuracy and storage facility have charmed everybody. The inherent aptitude of man for mathematics felt the need for a machine to Calculate the arithmetical figures. With this urge man could develop a device which has brought a new taste of life. Innovations in the use of information are examples of human brain power. Nobody can guess the end of it. A small list can give an amazing dimension-use of robot to control production and quality in the factory, conference among people at different corners in the world through communication, remote control of space craft from earth station and so on. Nothing is left on earth which is untouched by IT today. Each and every activity day to day life like to have a golden touch of it. Let us have the glimpses of its small range which are:-

• Education and training
• Medical science
• Engineering science
• Space research
• Research in bio-technology
• Entertainment etc.

Information is the backbone in a business organisation. In today’s competition, managing information the most critical task for survival. Information technology plays a crucial role in dissemination of information towards controlling business operation. The work of computer has been extended fron data processing to on-line management information system. Sales information to E-commerce, decision making to expert system.

The challenges ahead are the fields like:

• Process control in production management
• Flow of information through internet
• Integration of functional systems with network
• E-commerce in business
• Knowledge based expert system in decision making etc.
