So simple this is something you got to get informed,\n\nunlike other sciences where you have demonstration like physics chemistry and botany , All you see on the screen is to be believed as information ( example electricity) \n\nso these information in a PC alson not stored as you imagine by letters  ,they are binary coded , means each letter example A has as many as 1 0 10 10 and so on so this is informed not conveyed

"Information technology (IT)[1] is a broad subject concerned with technology and other aspects of managing and processing information, especially in large organizations." wikipedia\n\nthere is a lot of excellent information available on the internet.  I have provided a link to some sources for you:\nhttp://search.yahoo.com/search?search=information+technology&ei=UTF-8&fr=ks-ans&search_type=http%3A%2F%2Frds.yahoo.com%2F_ylt%3DAnr2xCpuE.zigCFMS4HHKeEazKIX%2FSIG%3D111gjvvgj%2F*-http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.yahoo.com%2Fsearch&p=information+technology\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=information+technology&btnG=Google+Search

No they are not the same. Information technology is more with they systems and the science part deals with more of the program.

"Cyber" is a prefix used to describe a person, thing, or idea as part of the computer and information age. Taken from kybernetes, Greek for "steersman" or "governor," it was first used in cybernetics, a word coined by Norbert Wiener and his colleagues.

IT stands for Information Technology - it's a very broad term and covers everything that relates to technology research, development, application and consulting...etc.\n\nTo get some idea on what these companies do, Yahoo Finance is a good place to start, follow the link below to read some of the company profile & you'll have a better understanding on the IT industry.\n\nhttp://biz.yahoo.com/p/8conameu.html

Diff Between Computer Science Engg. and information Technology is Comp. Sc. Mainly On HardWare where IT based On software App. But In Basic both Course are same.Diff Is in Master Degree level.For Better counselling Visit http://www.technocs.vipzone.biz.\nPersonally Can Tell You One thing HardWare Part is Much More harder than S/W

Information technology is technology that is involved in the storage, management, manipulation, and communication of information.\n\nOne hundred years ago, if you wanted to remember something, you had to write it down.  You had to file it in a system so that you could remember it.  If anyone else wanted a copy, you had to reproduce it by hand.  If you knew something, like how much weight horses gained when you fed them different ways, you would have to compile the data by hand from several sources.  Interpreting data was difficult for this reason.  And if you wanted to learn something that had to be hands on, like surgery, you often had to travel very far very slowly to see it done in person.\n\nThese days it is possible to store inforation so that it is readily retrievable by many people.  You can examine data more easily.  It is easier to learn things and easier to share what you know.

IT stands for Information Technology. Communications, Software Engineering, Chemical Engineering and Nuclear Technology all come under the sector. IIT(Indian Institute of Technology) offers the best courses and degrees. A BE or a BTech there and you're set for life. But the entrance exam is too hard and the courses there even more strenuous. All of or under the age of 25 are eligible. Or you could try other institutes like BITS or IIIT

It's a very general term referring more to the hardware and setup of the software than to running of individual application programs.  The IT person is the one the high-end user calls when he gets out of his depth with a problem on his computer.

A computer is an information-processing machine that works by converting all kinds of information into binary numbers (ones and zeros) and then using simple mathematics to make decisions about, or to rearrange, those numbers. There are two things essential to understanding the basics of how a computer works. One is that a computer treats any type of information (not only numbers but also letters, words, dates, and so on) as if it consisted simply of binary ones and zeros. For example, a computer can translate the letter “A” typed into its keyboard into a string of ones and zeros, such as 1000001. One reason to do this is that once in binary form, the information can be stored and moved about more easily.

Understanding computers and related systems. It includes a working vocabulary of computer and information system components, the fundamental principles of computer processing and a perspective for how non-technical people interact with technical people. The term has been attributed to Andrew Molnar in the early 1970s. He was director of the Office of Computing Activities at the National Science Foundation.\n\nNot the Electronics\nComputer literacy does not deal with how the computer works (digital circuits), but does imply knowledge of how the computer does its work (calculate, compare and copy). It requires a conceptual understanding of systems analysis & design, application programming, systems programming and datacenter operations. It also implies hands-on ability to work the operating system (Windows, Mac, Linux) and common applications such as spreadsheets, word processors, database programs, personal information managers (PIMs), e-mail programs and Web browsers.\n\nInformation Requirements Is a Key\n\nTo be a computer literate manager, you must be able to define information requirements effectively and have an understanding of decision support tools, such as query languages, report writers, spreadsheets and financial planning systems. To be truly computer literate, you must understand all the entries under "standards" in this Encyclopedia, and that is a sure cure for insomnia!

That's typically an IT term (Information Technology) used in large organizations.  It's concerned with defining, managing and controlling the organization's overall uses of technology in a consistent and well thought-out way.

Generally I/O stands for Input/Output which is what the hardware does as you perform tasks with software. The software asks the hardware for resources or input/output requests.

MIT stands for Massachussetts Institute of Technology which is considered one of the top universities in the USA. MIT might also stand for Master's in Information Technology, which is a technical degree focused solely on information technology. Msc.IT stands for Master in Science in Information Technology, whic is a more common degree focusing on technology as well as research, best practices and management.

Usually Information Technology is developed to do things more efficiently (at least that is the goal!). For example, webpages and email systems allow companies to more efficiently market their products to customers and even process orders. And internal systems allow companies to more efficiently track inventory, cash flow, personnel, etc.\n\nThe thing most people miss when implementing IT is the human component. The people who will be using the technology must be deeply involved in the implementation to ensure that they are not implementing technology for the sake of technology, but are making current (and/or future) processes easier, faster, better, and cheaper.\n\nI hope that answers your question.
