TICS - Information and Communication Technology

Information Technology and TICS Communication are called the set of technologies that allow the acquisition, production, storage, processing, communication, registration and presentation of information, in the form of voice, images and data contained in signals of an acoustic, optical or electromagnetic  TICS include electronics as a base technology that supports the development of telecommunications, information technology and audiovisual.

Immateriality (Possibility of digitalization): TICS make information, traditionally subject to a physical environment, immaterial. Features By scanning it is possible to store large amounts of information, in small physical devices (discs, CDs, USB sticks, etc.). In turn, users can access information located on distant electronic devices, which is transmitted using communication networks, in a transparent and immaterial way. This characteristic has come to define what has been called "virtual reality", that is, not real reality. Through the use of TICS, groups of people are interacting that interact according to their own interests, forming communities or virtual groups. Instantaneity: The information can be transmitted instantaneously to places far removed physically, by means of the so-called "information highways". Terms such as cyberspace have been coined to define the virtual space, not real, in which the information is located, by not assuming the physical characteristics of the object used for storage, acquiring that degree of immediacy and immateriality. Multimedia Applications: Multimedia applications or programs have been developed as a friendly and simple communication interface, to facilitate access to the Tics of all users. One of the most important characteristics of these environments is "Interactivity".
