Summary |
Business computing has revolutionized the business environment with the computer –assistance of many time-consuming, complex tasks such as accounting, inventory control, customer databases, shipping control, and financial analysis. Today’s desktop computers are versatile and relatively inexpensive. They have replaced the typewriter and, in many cases, the personal assistant for world-processing and organizational services. Networking of all the company’s desktop computers allows access to and storage of the full range of company resources and information, reducing paperwork and increasing the productive flow of information. The major sectors which are witnessing a special thrust for adoption of IT are E-Governance, insurance, banks, financial, public tax system, ports, customs, telecommunication, education, small office, home office/individuals etc. Large sectors with slow IT penetration rate such as textile industry and healthcare are being encouraged by the government and private sector to adopt IT.
