communication technology:
... the tools, products services and other elements
of communications
infrastructure that make it possible to convey information in
all varieties of forms. Wikipedia has a discussion on communication.
Definitions of technology and telecommunications
technology on this page.
cutting edge technology:
... the most-recent practical application of
knowledge gained from
scientific or technical observation
or experimentation; the application of new knowledge
of a scientific or technical nature derived through research,
experimentation, invention or engineering design.
decision matrix:
... An array of data elements presented on one axis
as a list of alternatives used for evaluating the potential for fulfilling
wants and/or needs expressed and respectively weighted on the other axis.
Some may see the business decision matrix as resembling a spreadsheet
showing a list of criterion arranged and ranked in a column, thus reflecting
the importance of each one as compared to all others and facilitating
a layout of rows of additional columns for listing options or solutions.
A matrix as well as a spreadsheet so arranged may be evaluated by a computer
program which, in effect, molds the decision making process. The hierarchy
of decision criteria may be referred to as the decision model. It is
highly recommended that solutions be rated based on ratio scale rather
than a point scale. Search the Web for additional information using suggested
key word combinationsCLICK
HERE for suggestions.
engineered product:
... That which machines and/or humans skillfully produce
by applying scientific and mathematical principles; something useful
or having practical value after being produced by a technologically proficient
machine operators or worker with technical skills;
Something manufactured with precision following a skillfully produced
design, model or set of specifications.
high tec:
... see the definition of high
tech in the Enterprise
and Economic Development Glossary. Additionally, high tec simply
means that cutting edge technology is
applied to advanced or specialized systems or devices. Something
that is cutting edge is
at the forefront of progress in its area (source
of quote). For example, high tec or high tech may
be seen combined with the word industry in order to describe
an enterprise category. See the link on this page to a PDF file titled
Definition of High Technology in which it is stated ... High
technology industries have a great dependence on science and technology
innovation that leads to new or improved products and services.
ICT:
... Information and Communication Technologies as applied
in network infrastructures which give enterprises clustered
together access to devices or applications that facilitate videoconferencing,
distance learning, and other cutting edge advantages that are attractive
to sophisticated economic
development prospectssee
the meaning of the expression growth
node. The systems and services that make information and communications
technology cutting
edge are radio, television and other wireless telecom applications
and devices in combination with computers and satellite access. ICT
has a global attraction in that governments and economic development
organizations in underdeveloped areas see it as a means to make fast-paced
strides in catching up and becoming competitive, i.e., to give an advantage
to some locations around
the world that desperately need a chance to catch up. The UN (United
Nations) is a leader in the promotion of ICT4D (Information
and Communication Technologies for Development) to level the
playing field for have-nots.

information age:
... an expression identifying the time of transition
out of the Industrial Age as technology facilitated the incubation
of scientific theories and concepts along with the invention of applications,
devices, tools, systems, and networks for organizing and distributing
information. It took about 100 years for the Information Age to fully
impact the global economy. It can be measured in its progress in various
ways with benchmarks such the invention
of the telegraph and development of photography and the invention
of television and the computer. One
of it significant benchmarks, was the invention of the Web and advent
of the so called information highway or Information Super Highway. The
progression of the Information Age overlays a transition from industrial
development to economic development which is signification to point out in this definition
of information age, given the focus of the mission of The Network on
global enterprise and economic development.
online technology:
... the manner of accomplishing
a task using a search
engine or search
tool connected for telecommunicationsee search

access. The tool at the top of this page for
querying the Web is an example of online search technology.
search technology:
... methods or tool applications
used to achieve search objectives; that which is applied in order to
make a search
tool work effectively. The Google/.network
search engine is an example of search technology ready for
you to use. Access more tools and additional information through the

The Network is
a technology-dependent operation. It has three
websites (see the Websites section
of this library you are using). The
library depends upon Internet
technology in order to virtually exist. The book, Weaving
the Web by Tim
Berners-Lee,
was one of the influences on the way The Network operates in
its communication technology environment.

technology development:
... a process that begins with discovery or research
as it is advanced towards practical application. For example, research
organized around potential business applications at a university may
be tied to technical acceleration (example of
usage of the term) programs or assistance. Emerging technologies with
potential may move from the academic environment to business incubation
where their development is infused with entrepreneurial expertise.
The availability of a small
business incubator in a location seeking economic development
is an incentive. Wikipedia defines
technology development with additional information.
technology transfer:
... according to a glossary provided by the USDA Forest
Service/Northeastern Research Station: the
(moving of ) ... ideas, information, methods, procedures, techniques,
tools, or technology from the developers to potential users. ... (methods) include
scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals, articles in management-oriented
publications, computer programs, training sessions, tours, workshops
... (source
