Information
technology in its strictest sense is the new science of collecting, storing,
processing, and transmitting information. Information is the lifeblood of
complex industrial societies and it is growing in significance. A recent study
by Information - Technology Advisory Panel put the number of people employed in
the "trade able" information sector (publishing, consulting, on line
data services, etc.) at about 5 percent of the INDIA workforce.
But on a
wider definition of the information sector, taking in the entire of banking and
insurance, central and local government, and education and training, it is obvious
that 40-45 percent of the INDIA workforce is directory involved in the
processing of information. And since we all use information at some time or
other, there is no one who won't be touched by the IT revolution.
The
personal computer(PC) has marched into the office, where novel information-
technology is replacing paperwork and improving productivity, customer service,
and job fulfillment for some. The worlds of banking, retailing, and financial
services are have been transformed by IT- because money, after all, is simply
information. No sort of commercial service or public utility has remained
untouched by the computers or new technology.
At the
global level, we have to consider the impact of IT on the 3rd World and the
possible exacerbation of North-South differences. Some argue that the less
developed nations now have the opportunity to leapfrog the developed countries,
but more likely, IT will just increase the obsolescence of their industries,
services, and development strategies.
