Information Technology


The field of engineering involving computer-based hardware and software systems, and communication systems, to enablethe acquisition, representation, storage, transmission, and use of information. Successful implementation of informationtechnology (IT) is dependent upon being able to cope with the overall architecture of systems, their interfaces with humansand organizations, and their relationships with external environments. It is also critically dependent on the ability tosuccessfully convert information into knowledge.
Information technology is concerned with improvements in a variety of human and organizational problem-solving endeavorsthrough the design, development, and use of technologically based systems and processes that enhance the efficiency andeffectiveness of information in a variety of strategic, tactical, and operational situations. Ideally, this is accomplishedthrough critical attention to the information needs of humans in problem-solving tasks and in the provision of technologicalaids, including electronic communication and computer-based systems of hardware and software and associated processes.Information technology complements and enhances traditional engineering through emphasis on the information basis forengineering.
The knowledge and skills required in information technology come from the applied engineering sciences, especiallyinformation, computer, and systems engineering sciences, and from professional practice. Professional activities ininformation technology and in the acquisition of information technology systems range from requirements definition orspecification, to conceptual and functional design and development of communication and computer-based systems forinformation support. They are concerned with such topics as architectural definition and evaluation. These activities includeintegration of new systems into functionally operational existing systems and maintenance of the result as user needschange over time. This human interaction with systems and processes, and the associated information processingactivities, may take several diverse forms. See ReengineeringSystems architectureSystems engineering

The hardware and software of computing and communications form the basic tools for information technology. These areimplemented as information technology systems through use of systems engineering processes. While informationtechnology and information systems engineering does indeed enable better designs of systems and existing organizations,it also enables the design of fundamentally new organizations and systems such as virtual corporations. Thus, efforts in thisarea include not only interactivity in working with clients to satisfy present needs but also awareness of future technological,organizational, and human concerns so as to support transition over time to new information technology-based services.
