Information society technologies

Abstract

In the era of information society and knowledge-based economy, in which all social activities stand under „e-”, „i-” or „@” in the front of problems appear adequate technologies defined by the author as Information Society Technologies. As it is well known, the directions of the development of modern science are more and more related with systemic approach to solving problems defined holistically, with emphasis on aspects of their utility. This involves need to create solutions that are in fact decisions of a negotiation, and undertaken in systems with incomplete and fuzzy information and social and psychological contexts because of the importance of the human factor (human-centric approach). The author presents model which explains what Information Society Technologies are.
