The development of information technology.

The Information Technology has been conceptualized as the integration and convergence of computing microelectronics, telecommunications and technology for data processing, its main components are: the human factor, the content of information, equipment, physical infrastructure , software and mechanisms for electronic exchange of information, elements of policy and regulations and financial resources.

Is the information between computers, integrated services digital networks, satellite transmission and trans-border data flow global problems of mankind and a serious political issue of unpredictable social and economic conscience?.
If we examine these components we realize that are the major players in software development in a society for their development both as to its implementation also recognizes as information technologies are the core of a multidimensional transformation experienced by the economy and society, hence the importance of the study and mastery of the influences that such a transformation requires humans as social beings, as it tends to change not only their habits and behavior patterns, but even their way of thinking .

The key factors were:

  • The weapons of microelectronics that have allowed a huge advance in computing power and capacity of computers.
  • Advances in telecommunications have led to explosion in the use of networks of local and global scopes.
  • The accelerated development of programs and applications that are generalized moving closer to the "general public" by means of easy communication interfaces, pleasing to the use of multimedia techniques.
These factors make every day are reduced costs and therefore expand the use of these media in other sectors, not only at the military academy or industry, but in business, health, education, leisure and own homes.
It is estimated that this sector will have greater global investments and to current sociological theories exist, with idealistic approach, which they see as the miraculous element, a catalyst to solve social economic problems.
Importantly, the NTIC today act as an important engine of growth because their economic benefits in terms of value added, productivity and employment, add other character related bidirectional interconnecting, which allows the transmission and spread of benefits and experiences different regions and environments.
This new technological revolution not only ignores the barriers of time and space as their services are 24 hours and anywhere in the world, but also affect the people, which inter solutions with different institutions.
The access to large knowledge base in universities and libraries, distance learning, collaboration between research disinterested or use of telemedicine are examples of the infinite universe of possibilities that can provide these technologies and to enlighten the human condition today.
It is contradictory because currently, many satellite service providers have completed their business as profitable channels such as digital television, however, makes no such infrastructure available to cut social services even if a small operation of these technologies could save human lives.
