Lesson 3 Flashcards
Refers to the knowledge obtained from reading, investigation, study or research.
Information
Is an act of transmitting messages. It is a process whereby information is exchanged between individuals using symbols, signs or verbal interactions
Communication
Is the use of scientific knowledge, experience and resources to create processes products that fulfill human needs
Technology
An extensional term for information technology (IT) that stresses the role of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications (telephone lines and wireless signals) and computers, as well as necessary enterprise software, middleware, storage, and audiovisual systems, that enable users to access, store, transmit, and manipulate information
Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
Stages of ICT Development
- 1st phase (until the second half of the nineteenth century)
- 2nd phase (since the end of the XIX century)
- 3rd phase (40-60 - IES of XX century)
- 4th phase (from the beginning of the 70s)
- 5th phase (since the mid-80s)
“Manual” information technology, tools which were: a pen, inkwell, book. Communication impl-Lis hand the conduit through the mail letters, packages, dispatches.
1st phase (until the second half of the nineteenth century)
“Mechanical” technology equipped with more advanced means of mail delivery, the tools of which were: writing phone, voice recorder. The main purpose of the technology is to present the information in the desired form by more convenient means.
- 2nd phase (since the end of the XIX century)
“Electric” technology, the tools of which were: main computers and related software, electrician. typewriters, copiers, portable voice recorders. The main purpose of it begins to move from the form of representation of the investment to the formation of its content.
3rd phase (40-60 - IES of XX century)
“Electronic” technology, the main tools of which are main computers and automated control systems (ACS) and information retrieval systems based on specialized software systems. Technology is shifted more to the formation of the content side of information for the management environment of various spheres of public life, especially the organization of analytical work.
4th phase (from the beginning of the 70s)
“Computer” (“new”) technology, the main tools of which are PCs with a wide range of standard legal products for different purposes. At this stage, PR-SS personalization ASU, which manifestations-in the creation of systems of support of decision-making is determined.
5th phase (since the mid-80s)
Components of an ICT System
- People
- Information
- Hardware
- Procedures
- Software
- Data
- Needed to supply the data to the ICT system
- Make judgments and decisions from the output supplied from the system
People
- The results from processing data
- The output from an ICT system
Information
- Physical components that make up the ICT system
- Input devices
- Storage
- Processor
- Output devices
- Communication devices
Hardware
- Determine what needs to be done and when
- Passing of data or information between different people
Procedures
- Computer programs which provide the step-by-step instructions to get the job done
Software
- Raw material of any ICT system
- Processed by the system to provide the information which is the output provided by the system
