Information technology (IT) is the study, design, development,
implementation, support or management of computer-based information
systems, particularly software applications and computer hardware,
According to the Information Technology Association of America (ITAA),
IT deals with the use of electronic computers and computer software to
convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and securely retrieve information.
Today, the term information has ballooned to encompass many aspects of
computing and technology, and the term has become very recognizable. IT
professionals perform a variety of duties that range from installingapplications to designing complex computer networks and information
databases. A few of the duties that IT professionals perform may include
data management, networking, engineering computer hardware, database
and software design, as well as the management and administration of entire
systems. Information technology is starting to spread farther than the
conventional personal computer and network technology, and more into
integrations of other technologies such as the use of cell phones, televisions,
automobiles, and more, which is increasing the demand for such jobs.
When computer and communications technologies are combined, the result
is information technology. It is a general term that describes any technology
that helps to produce, manipulate, store, communicate, and/or disseminateinformation.

reforms aimed at increasing the speed and reliability of financial operationsand of initiatives to strengthen the banking sector.
3). The IT revolution has set the stage for unprecedented increase in
financial activity across the globe. The progress of technology and the
development of worldwide networks have significantly reduced the cost of
global funds transfer.
4). It is information technology which enables banks in meeting such high
expectations of the customers who are more demanding and are also more
techno-savvy compared to their counterparts of the yester years. Theydemand instant, anytime and anywhere banking facilities.
5). IT has been providing solutions to banks to take care of their accounting
and back office requirements. This has, however, now given way to largescale usage in services aimed at the customer of the banks.
IT also facilitates the introduction of new delivery channels--in the form of
Automated Teller Machines, Net Banking, Mobile Banking and the like.
Further, IT deployment has assumed such high levels that it is no longer
possible for banks to manage their IT implementations on a stand alone basis
with IT revolution, banks are increasingly interconnecting their computer
systems not only across branches in a city but also to other geographic
locations with high-speed network infrastructure, and setting up local area
and wide area networks and connecting them to the Internet. As a result,information systems and networks are now exposed to a growing number

Many parents will buy their child a computer in order to take advantage of
the vast range of educational software that is now available. While the price
of PCs is getting lower and lower, there is the danger here that home
education via the computer will be divided into the 'haves' and the have-nots

Computers are playing an increasingly large role in education. Whether they
are used as administration tools or as part of learning management systems,
computers are changing the face of education in the digital age:
School and University Administration Systems
Administration systems can keep track of student records including
personal details, the courses a student is taking and exam results.
These systems can even be used to set class timetables. Learning
management systems can be used to control and track delivery of
online learning for hundreds of thousands of students.
Distance Learning
On the Internet virtual campuses are used to host distance learning
programs which often include online tutorials. Services like this can
provide much needed additional resources for those living in remote
areas, or those who are housebound. In either case, access to a
traditional training centre could be difficult.
Research
The Internet can be used to research homework, student projects, orfor your particular hobby or interest. Specialist areas which can be
difficult to research using traditional methods are often catered for on
the web. You can then use a desk top application such as Microsoft
Word to create documents from material that you download from the
Internet.
Some of the benefits are-;
1.
It induces scientific, economic, technological, information and
multicultural literacy and global awareness.
2. It promotes inventive thinking which induces the following:
a. Adaptability & managing complexity.
b. Curiosity, creativity and risk taking.

c. High-order thinking and sound reasoning.
3. It develops effective communication which leads to teaming,
collaboration and interpersonal skills. Moreover, it induces personal,
social and civic responsibility.
4. It leads to high productivity which given the ability to plan and
manage results. It also gives you a sense of using real-world tools
with effective, relevant, and high quality results.
EDUCATION WITHOUT TECHNOLOGY VERSUS EDUCATION
WITH TECHNOLOGY
To measure the benefits of using information technology we are dividing
education into two categories:-
If we impart education without technology then these are the outcomes:-
a. It is Passive.
b. It is formal.
c. It is instructor driven.
d. It is time dependent.
e. Content defined by others.
f. Grade is given only after final evaluation.
g. Not all the students fully participate.
Now, if we impart education with technology then these are the outcomes:-
a. It is Active.
b. It is informal.
c. It is student driven.
d. It is not time dependent.
e. Content defined by students.
f. Individual contribution is measured.
g. All students fully participate

Information technology (IT) refers to the management and use ofinformation using computer-based tools. It includes acquiring, processing,
storing, and distributing information. Most commonly it is a term used to
refer to business applications ofcomputer technology, rather than scientific
applications. The term is used broadly in business to refer to anything that
ties into the use of computers.
Mostly businesses today create data that can be stored and processed on
computers. In some cases the data must be input to computers using devices
such as keyboards and scanners. In other cases the data might be created
electronically and automatically stored in computers.
Small businesses generally need to purchase software packages, and may
need to contract with IT businesses that provide services such as hosting,

marketing web sites and maintaining networks. However, larger companies
can consider having their own IT staffs to develop software, and otherwise
handle IT needs in-house. For instance, businesses working with the federal
government are likely to need to comply with requirements relating to
making information accessible.
The constant upgrade in information technology, along with increasing
global competition, is adding difficulty and hesitation of several orders of
scale to the business and trade.
Effective implementation of information technology would decrease liability
by reducing the cost of expected failures and increase flexibility by reducing
the cost of adjustment. The businesses reaction to the environment remains
to be the vital determinant for its effectiveness. The capabilities and
flexibilities of computer-communication systems make them gradually more
appropriate to businesses by being able to respond to any specific
information
Information Technology is having impact on all trade industries and
businesses, in service as well as in manufacturing. It is affecting workers at
all levels of organizations, from the executives to middle management and
clerks. Information technology is increasingly becoming a basic factor of alltypes of technologies such as craft, engineering, routine, and non-routine.
The advances in Information Technology would result in remarkable decline
in the costs of synchronization that would lead to new, concentrated business
structures. It enables the business to respond to the new and urgent
competitive forces by providing effective management of interdependence.
In the near future businesses would be facing a lack and a redundancy of
information called information glut. To solve the information-glut
companies will need to introduce methods for selective thinning out of
information. Improvements in telecommunications will make it easier to
control business units dispersed over different parts of the world. Advances
in telecommunications, would result in increased distance-communication.

In Health Care computers can be used in some very interesting ways:
Medical Records
A patients medical history can be stored on a computer system. This
can include details of visits to the Doctor, previous illnesses and any
allergies that the patient may have. Patients scans and X-rays can
also be stored in large computerised databases. Billing information
covering medication, Doctors visits and medical procedures can be
processed more efficiently.
Medical Information Databases
Details of available medication, together with case histories can also
be stored in large databases. Databases containing case histories canbe analysed to help diagnose certain conditions. New drugs are being
developed all the time and information can be added to these
databases on a regular basis to ensure Doctors have up to date
information.

Ambulance Control Systems
Hospitals can use computerised control systems to allocated and track
ambulances. Geographical information systems can analyse traffic
patterns helping to ensure that the ambulance uses the quickest route
possible. At the scene of an accident paramedics can use a
computerised medical database to help them decide on the appropriate
treatment for a patient.
Medical Equipment
Life support systems such as heart rate analysis and respiration
equipment are controlled by computer. Also many diagnostic toolssuch as blood pressure monitors, ultrasound and MRI scans are
computerised.
Specialist Surgical Equipment
Gastroscopes use tiny computer controlled cameras to really get a
good look at whats going on inside a patients body. They help in the
diagnosis of conditions such as stomach ulcers. Doctors can then
decide if surgery is required. Keyhole surgery takes this concept onestep further. Complex heart operations can now be carried out
through a small incision in the patients chest. A tiny camera enables
the surgeon to see exactly what is going on. Computer controlled
lasers can be used to operate with great precision on very delicate
areas, for example during corrective eye surgery.

To provide the communication facilities to the people at the lowest ebb of
the social order" is his prime objective and synchronizing this "his toppriority area would be rural telephony." This is the crux of the message
that India's new Communications and Information Technology Minister
Andimuthu Raja sought convey to the people of the country, to the ICT
world in particular. Out of total 607491 villages in the country, 552824
villages have been provided Village Public Telephone (VPT) facility as on
March 31, 2007.
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) has entered into an agreement with
Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF), DOT in November, 2004,
for providing VPTs facility to 66822 accessible, undisputed andundisturbed uncovered villages having population more than 100 as per
census 1991, which are planned to be provided with VPT facility
progressively by November, 2007. Out of the awarded village, BSNL has providedVPT facility to 46969 villages.
Also, a scheme is being launched by the government to provide support
for the provision of mobile services, including WLL services, in specified

rural and remote areas, where there is no existing fixed or mobile
services and is likely to be made operational by June, 2008. About 2.12
lakh villages are likely to be covered under this scheme.
Since the telecom sector is a growing sector, all efforts required to
maintain the growth tempo will continue, the minister assured the
countrymen immediately after assuming the charge of his new portfolio.
According to indian telecom regulatory authority, TRAI, the total number
of telephone subscribers have reached 212.02 million at the end of April
2007 as compared to 206.83 million in March 2007. The overall tele-
density has increased to 18.74 in April 2007 as compared to 18.31 in
March 2007. In the wireless segment, 5.15 million subscribers have been
added in April 2007 while 3.53 million subscribers were added in March
2007. The total wireless subscriber (GSM, CDMA & WLL (F)) base is
171.20 million now.
Total Broadband connections in the country have reached 2.43 million by
the end of April 2007. The total number of existing ISP licencees is 382.
India has set a target of providing 9 (nine) mn broadband connections by
this year end and 20 mn connections by the end of 2010. The
Parliamentary Consultative Committee attached to his Ministry, was
recently posted about the availability of new disruptive wireless
broadband technology, such as Wi-MAX.
The targets to be achieved under the broadband initiatives, broad strategyand action plans prepared by the BSNL and Mahanagar Telephone
Nigam Limited (MTNL). It is envisaged under the action plan, that
broadband coverage of all secondary and higher secondary schools,
public health care centers and Village Panchayats would be provided by
the year 2008. By September 2007;1000 blocks by wireless broadband by
December 2007 and the remaining 5000 blocks by wireless broadband
with USO support by June 2008 would be provided. BSNL, as part of
their action plan, have envisaged to add an average of 5 lakh broadband
connections per month from January 2008. 80 percent of the exchangeswould be broadband by the end of 2007 and roll out of IPTV in majorcities.
In addition to this, BSNL will aggressively roll out high speed broadband
(like Wi-MAX) services and allow integration of multiple access
technology like ADSL 2 +, VDSL 2, fibre-home, Wi-Fi, Wi-MAX, 3G,

CorDECT, etc. The focus will be to provide multi-play instead of triple
play. As a part of the strategy, MTNL has envisaged a target of providing
one million broadband connections by the end of this year and addition of
an average one lakh connections per month from January, 2008. It has
also decided to stren Its IPTV services which have been recently rolledout fully in Mumbai and in Delhi.
Information technology is one of the fastest growing recent technology.
Various software have been developed for environment and health care
which are user friendly and help in better understanding for the topic. A lot
of techniques are used under IT for development and application of
computational tools to acquire, store, analyze and visualize satellite data
which is used for observation, and protection of environment Due to the

Introduction to Microsoft Access 2003
Introduction and ObjectivesMicrosoft Access 2003 is a powerful, yet easy to learn, relational database
application for Microsoft Windows. This tutorial is designed for users whoare new or only have little experience using Access 2003. It introduces
fundamental database concepts and operations and illustrates how they are
performed in Microsoft Access 2003. This tutorial does not cover all of the
features and functions of Microsoft Access 2003; emphasis will be on basic
and frequently-used features, such as the creation of tables and queries, or
importing spreadsheet into Access.
ObjectivesBy using Access 2003 following can be done:
Launch Access and identify the parts of the screen.
Define fields and field properties constructing table structures.
Enter and edit records in a table.
Find, sort data.
Design custom queries to display data.
Import and export data between Excel and Access.
It was previously known as Microsoft Access, is a pseudo relational
database management system from Microsoft that combines the relational
Microsoft Jet Database Engine with a graphical user interface and software
development tools. It is a member of the Microsoft Office suite of
applications, included in the Professional and higher editions or soldseparately. The current versions are Microsoft Office Access 2007 for
Windows. In late 2009, Microsoft released the beta version of Microsoft
Access 2010.

Features:-
Users can create tables, queries, forms and reports, and connect them
together with macros.
It also has the ability to link to data in its existing location and use it for
viewing, querying, editing, and reporting. This allows the existing data to
change and the Access platform to always use the latest data.
It can perform heterogeneous joins between data sets stored across
different platforms.
Microsoft Access is a file server-based database. Unlike clientserver
relational database management systems (RDBMS), Microsoft Access
does not implement database triggers, stored procedures, or transaction
logging.
Access is often used by people downloading data from enterprise level
databases for manipulation, analysis, and reporting locally.
DefinitionsThese words are used often in Access so you will want to become familiar
with them before using the program and this tutorial.
Relational Database: in relational databases such as Access, data is stored
in tables made up of one or morefields (Access calls a column afield). The
data stored in each

column must be of a single data type such as Character, Number or Date. A collection of
values from each column of a table is called a recordor a row in the table.
Different tables can have the same column in common. This feature is used
to explicitly specify a relationship between two tables. Values appearing in
column A in one table are shared with another table
Table: tables are the main units of data storage in a database. A table is a
collection of data about a specific topic; it is made up of one of morefields.
Field: a field is a column in a table and defines a data type for a set of values
in a table. For example, a mailing list table might include fields for first
name, last name, address, city, state, zip code, and telephone number.
Record: a record in a row in a table and is a set of values defined by fields.
In a mailing list table, each record would contain the data for one person asspecified by the intersecting fields.
Data type: data types are the properties of each field. A field only has one
data type, such as Character, Number or Date.
Primary Key: a primary key is a value that can be used to identify a unique
record in a table.
Design View: it provides the tools for creating fields in a table.
Datasheet View: it allows you to update, edit, and delete in formation from
a table.
Access vs. ExcelAccess databases and Excel spreadsheets although originally very different,
have evolved to have similar functions. Although either type of program can
do many, but not all, of the things that the other one does, there are some
things which are easier in one program than the other.
Excel is not database management systems. Excel spreadsheets store data in
rows and columns called worksheets. The areas within the worksheet wherethe rows and columns intersect are called cells. The most common use of
spreadsheets is to manage basic information such as telephone numbers,
employee names, financial data, calculations, etc.
Access stores data in tables that look similar to worksheets but function
quite differently. Tables, the foundation of all relational databases function
both independently and interdependently with other tables to allow the

database user to combine data from multiple sources and analyze and/or
report information in almost limitless ways
The Access InterfaceThis section introduces the Access interface and discusses how to use menus
and tools bars, create databases and switch between database components.
Starting Access and Opening a Database1. Click on the START button on your computer and position your
cursor over the PROGRAMS menu to view a list of installed
programs. Once you see the list, position the cursor over Microsoft
Office and then click on Microsoft Access.
2. After opening Access, you will be presented with the window shown in
Figure 1.
3. If you want to edit an existing database, you can either go to File
Open,or move your cursor to the lower right-hand side to click on Open.

4.If you are creating a new database, you can also either go to File
New, or move your cursor to the lower right-hand side to click on Create
a new file. You will be presented with five options on the right side mens
as shown in Fig2
5. Unlike Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and Power Point
presentations, you must save an Access database before you startworking on it. After selecting "Blank database", you will first be
prompted to specify a location and name for the database. In the New
Database dialog box, type in a name for the database and a location
and click on Create as shown in Figure 3.

7.Database ComponentsAn Access database consists of several different components. Each
component listed is called an object.
Listed below are the names and descriptions of the different objects
you can use in Access. This tutorial will focus on the first two objects:
tables and queries.
A)Tables
Tables are where the actual data is defined and entered. Tables consistof
records (rows) and fields (columns).
B)QueriesQueries are basically questions about the data in a database. A query
consists of specifications indicating which fields, records, and summaries
you want to see from a database. Queries allow you to extract data based
on the criteria you define.
C)FormsForms are designed to ease the data entry process. For example, you
can create a data entry form that looks exactly like a paper form.
People generally prefer to enter data into a well-designed form, rather
than a table.
8/2/2019 Assignment of It-rajat
22/40
22
D) ReportsWhen you want to print records from your database, design a report.
Access even has a wizard to help produce mailing labels.
E)PagesA data access page is a special type of Web page designed for viewing
and working with data from the Internet or an intranet. This data is
stored in a Microsoft Access database or a Microsoft SQL Server
database.
F)MacrosA macro is a set of one or more actions that each performs a particular
operation, such as opening a form or printing a report. Macros can
help you automate common tasks. For example, you can run a macro
that prints a report when a user clicks a command button.
G)ModulesA module is a collection of Visual Basic for Applications declarations
and procedures that are stored together as a unit.
Building Database TablesThis section describes how to construct data tables, enter and edit data,
sort records, and find records that meet certain conditions.
A)Creating Tables in Design View1. By clicking the Table tab on the left hand side, you will find Access
provides three ways to create a table for which there are icons in the
Database window.
Create Table in Design view will allow you to create the fields of the
table. It allows you to define the fields in the table before adding any data
to the datasheet. This is the most common way of creating a table and is
explained in detail below.
Create table by using wizard will step you through the creation of atable.
Create table by entering data will give you a blank datasheet with
unlabelled columns that looks much like an Excel worksheet.
8/2/2019 Assignment of It-rajat
23/40

2. Double clicking on Create table in Design view displays the Table
Design screen where you define fields for your table. The screen is
divided into two parts: a top pane for entering the field name, data
type, and an option description of the field and a bottom pane for
specifying field properties.
3. Every table consists of fields. For each field, specify the name of the
field, the type of data, and any description needed to determine what data
the field contains. Pressing the Tab key moves the cursor from one
column to the next in the Table Design screen. You can select the data
type from the drop-down list in the Data Type column as shown in Figure
6.

4At this point, the new table has been created and saved. Switch back
to the Access main screen by pulling down the File menu and
choosing Close. This will close the Design View for the table and
display the Access main screen. Notice that the new Book_Info table
appears below the Table tab
8/2/2019 Assignment of It-rajat
25/40
25
Adding and Deleting Fields to TablesEven the best planned database will sometimes require you to add or delete a
field in the Design View. To add a new field, select the row you want to
insert above and choose Row from the Insert menu. If you need to delete afield, select the row containing the field and choose Delete Row from theEdit menu.
You can also move fields in the table design. Select the field you want to
move by clicking on its row. A black triangle will appear to indicate the field
is selected. Then, drag the field to the new location.
Cautions to Modifying your Table Design Structure
Backup your table before you make any modifications to it.
Deleting a field will delete the records in the field.
.If you delete a field and that field is used in any of your forms, queries
or reports, you must also delete that field from these other documents.
Renaming a field will have the same effect on a table as deleting thefield.

4.To save the new data, pull down the File menu and choose Save.
Sorting and Finding RecordsTwo of the most common database tasks are sorting records and searching
for records that meet aparticular condition. Fortunately, both of these
operations are easy to perform while viewing the table datasheet.
Sorting RecordsTo sort records by a particular field, select the field you want to sort. From
the Records menu select Quick Sort then choose either Ascending or
Descending order. Access quickly sorts the records by the selected field.
Finding RecordsIf you want to locate a record that contains a certain name or date use the
Find command on the Edit menu. Type the search string in the Find What
box and clickFind First. Access will highlight the first record that contains
the search string.

Communication services encompasses a range of software systems that
allow users to interact and share data. This computer-mediated
communication has become very popular with social sites like MySpace and
Facebook, media sites like Flickr and YouTube as well as commercial sites
like Amazon.com and eBay. Many of these applications share characteristics
like open APIs, service-oriented design and the ability to upload data and
media. The terms Web 2.0 and (for large-business applications) Enterprise
2.0 are also used to describe this style of software.
Some the main information services are as under :-
Internet chats
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) and other online chat technologies allow users to
join chat rooms and communicate with many people at once, publicly. Users
may join a pre-existing chat room or create a new one about any topic. Once
inside, you may type messages that everyone else in the room can read, as
well as respond to messages from others. Often there is a steady stream of
people entering and leaving. Whether you are in another person's chat roomor one you've created yourself, you are generally free to invite others online
to join you in that room. Instant messaging facilitates both one-to-one
(communication) and many-to-many interaction.
One-to-one in communication is the act of an individual communicating
with another. In Internet terms, this can be done by e-mail but the most
typical one-to-one communication in the Internet is instant messaging as it
does not consider many-to-many communication such as a chat room as an
essential part of its scope (however, this may be disputed as instantmessaging includes announcing presence information, which may be
considered a part of a many-to-many communication system).
One to One also referred to the business movement during Web 1.0 which
leveraged database technology for targeting products, ads, and services to
specific users with particular profile attributes. The concept was supported

by technologies such as BroadVision, ATG, and BEA. Amazon is a classic
example of a company that performs "One to One Marketing" by offering
users targeted offers and related products.
Many-to-many is a term that describes a communication paradigm and an
associated media form.It is the third of three major Internet computingparadigms. The early Internet applications of e-mail, FTP, and Telnet are
characterized as "one-to-one" because they are primarily communication
means from one individual (or computer) to another.
With the advent of the World Wide Web, one can display information on a
website that is accessible by many others. Thus we have the second
paradigm one-to-many.
With developments such as file sharing, blogs, Wiki, and tagging, a new set
of Internet applications enable:people to both contribute and receiveinformation.
information elements can be interlinked across different websites. This kind
of Internet application shows the beginning of the "many-to-many"
paradigm.
With the evolution to the full "many-to-many" computing paradigm, people
can input and receive information to and from the Internet; they will be able
to connect and communicate dynamically within a flexibly formed scope;
there will be no artificial boundary between information and communicationtools, and the definition of "many" will go well beyond people to include
entities such as organizations, products, processes, events, concepts and so
on.
One-to-many In communication, one-to-many is the act of publishing or
broadcasting from one sender to many receivers.
One-to-many (also known as "to-many") relationships are often used when
managing databases. A one-to-many relationship occurs when one entity is
related to many occurrences in another entity. For example, one club hasmany members.

Point-to-multipoint communication is a term that is used in the
telecommunications field which refers to communication which is
accomplished via a specific and distinct type of multipoint connection,
providing multiple paths from a single location to multiple locations[1]
.
Point-to-multipoint telecommunications is most typically (2003) used in
wireless Internet and IP Telephony via gigahertz radio frequencies. P2MP
systems have been designed both as single and bi-directional systems. A
central antenna or antenna array broadcasts to several receiving antennas and
the system uses a form ofTime-division Multiplexing to allow for the back-
channel traffic.
Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Business Radio Service (BRS)
formerly known as Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service (MMDS),
also known as Wireless Cable, is a wireless telecommunications technology,
used for general-purpose broadband networking.

Voice Conference Manager
Voice Conference Manager (VCM) is a software package that uses VoiceXML,
CCXML, grXML, JavaScript, Java, and Python to create a system to manage
telephony conference calls.Voice conference manager offers the following
features
Add people to conference call by speaking their names (if registered with the
system) or by saying their phone number. Web-based monitoring. You can log
into a web page that shows, updated in real time, the status of the conference
call. Future releases will let you control the conference call from a web page.
The person who sets up the call does not have to participate in the call. VCM
demonstrates third party call control. VCM runs on standard VoiceXML,CCXML, and web servers. It was tested on a freely-available developer server
from Voxeo.

How to Use Voice Conference Manager
To start a conference call, a "clerk" dials a telephone number. Voice Conference
Manager uses speech recognition and text-to-speech to ask the clerk the names
or phone numbers of people to place into the conference. After the clerk is done
and the clerk may hang up at this point the VCM calls each person who's
supposed to participate in the call and adds them to the call. A web page shows
the current status of the calls.
Choice of Two Packages
VCM has two different branches. The main branch, which is released on the
download page as the plain "vcm" package, is for any VoiceXML/CCXML
system. It's a gzip'd tar file. Some of the capabilities are a bit old at this point,
and while it can monitor phone calls it cannot control them.
The other branch of VCM is the Prophecy branch, which is released in two
parts: the "vcm-prophecy" package and the "push2web" package. These assumethe capabilities provided by Voxeo's freely-licensed Prophecy server, which
provides a complete SIP/CCXML/VoiceXML/TTS solution. This branch can
also be used on any system that provides similar capabilities (PHP is required,
and if you want web-based monitoring, you'll also need Java servlets as
provided by Jetty or Tomcat). If you're using Voxeo's Prophecy, you'll want todownload and use these packages. See the notes below, the Prophecy Branch
page and the push2web documentation.
Mobile Voice Conference
The mobile phone has introduced many people to speech technology in afriendly opt-in environment, e.g., free directory assistance and voice control

of the phone
- Mobile phones are not small PCs. Their small size and need for a hands-free
option mandates a speech option.
- This paradigm shift in familiarity is creating new acceptance and confidence in
user interface innovation that opens the door for more applications
- Contact centers will get more traffic from mobile phones, with expectations of
similarly friendly speech interactionwill contact centers become multi-
purpose voice
- Advertising can finance some innovative applications and contact center
upgrades, as advertisers realize that speech applications are more natural to the
mobile phone than web surfing (and voice applications work on every phone)
- Speech recognition and other speech technologies demonstrably have crossed
new thresholds of usabilitytechnology is no longer the barrier.
- Variations on speech technologyaudio search, speaker authentication, and
othersadd to the increasing impact speech technology will have on users.
