dc.descriptionICT is a convergence of microelectronics, computing (hardware and software) and telecommunications. Modern trends in micro-processors and semiconductors has enable the processing and storage of enormous amount of data while integration of fibre optics and fast Ethernet technology in networks has facilitated rapid distribution of information through communication networks. Linking computing devices and allowing them to communicate with each other creates networked information systems based on a common protocol. This has radically altered access to information and the structure of communication —extending the networked reach to many parts of the world More simply ICT refer to technologies and tools that people use to share, distribute, gather information, and to communicate with one another, one on one, or in groups, through the use of computers and interconnected computer networks. They are mediums that utilize both telecommunication and computer technologies to transmit information – remember that hand held devices like mobile phones are part of ICT
