Dichotomy of the term “technology” within the wider definition of information technology

Abstract

The term information technology has grown to embrace an array of technologies and related disciplines. Information technology is the study, design, development, implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems – particularly software applications and computer hardware. For two decades, we have also used such terms in the scientific circuit, as well. However, is this correct? In fact, is everything we deal in the field of computer science is a technology? The scope of this article study undertook a discussion and an attempt to answer this question.
