Information and
communications technology (ICT) is often used as an extended synonym for
information technology (IT), but is a more specific term that stresses the role
of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications (telephone
lines and wireless signals), computers as well as necessary enterprise
software, middleware, storage, and audio-visual systems, which enable users to
access, store, transmit, and manipulate information.
