infirmation technology 2nd sem (full sylabus)
ICTs encompass a wide range of technologies used to process, store, and transmit information electronically. They have revolutionized connectivity by allowing vast networks to connect people and organizations across great distances at low cost. ICTs have significant potential to facilitate development by enabling the flow of information, ideas, people, and products. While ICT access and use is uneven between developed and developing areas, ICTs can help "leapfrog" development stages when used appropriately. Key applications of ICTs include education through improved access to information, remote healthcare delivery, citizen empowerment and participation, and opportunities for women and youth.

Broadband Ecosystem Development and the Facets of a Digital Economy
Voice communications evolved to data quite rapidly in recent years that several deployment mechanisms and investment platforms have been antiquated. Weighing the benefits of Universal Service Fund (USF), it is likened that broadband ecosystem development be anchored on establishing a digital economy. Leveraging infostructures as key enabler for growth, the USF framework is put on spotlight as to whether strategies need to be reviewed, updated or shelved. Thus, the information and communications technology (ICT) landscape provides an executive view on the challenges of employing USF and how enabling telecommunications policies magnify economic opportunities of a nation in focus.
