We are living in privileged times. The world has witnessed so much that the scientific and technological development that has taken place is just phenomenal. Knowledge has not grown; it has exploded (Mr. Saifuddin Adeeb, 2000).
1.1 TOPIC CHOSEN AND ITS CONTEXT
The topic I have chosen for my research and analysis project is
“An analysis of how the application of technology can contribute to an organisation’s efficiency and/or effectiveness.”
Events are taking place every fraction of a second. In human history no other invention has the kind of potential and influence for human welfare and development as information technology has. Technology especially the information technology is a blessing for humankind if its proper application towards the betterment of humanity is ensured. It should be used for further advancement
