like oundation*%ords or kno%led!e*based society" +nortunately, many

o us dont kno% t#e dierences bet%een I&, I'& and I&- especiallybet%een I& and I'&" In t#is article, I try my best to make some distinction

amon! t#ese %ords" Second, t#ird and ourt# para!rap# describe I&, I'&

and I& respecti$ely"

.e are usin! desktop computers or dierent purposes" /or eample,teac#ers use computer to make po%er point slides to teac#, accountant use

some accountin! packa!es" .e are amiliar %it# t#e oice packa!es orcreatin! documents e"!" .ord ile, cel etc" In anot#er %ords, in I& %e

take stand*alone computer or laptop as a tool to perorm our tasks"ereore, #ard%are in I& reer to t#e basic bo and perip#erals suc# as

scanners, printers, ' 35, 6 dri$e, Pen ri$e, and so on- sot%are

includes some packa!es like %ord processors , spreads#eets, databases,!rap#ics and presentation packa!e" So, one can say an epert in I& i s#eis an epert in t#ose items"

No% %e say t#at %e are in !lobal $illa!e" 8nyone can contact %it# any

person rom any area o t#e %orld easily" is is possible because o t#einterconnection bet%een indi$idual computers, mobiles, routers, laptops

etc" tec#nically, t#e #osts" is net%orkin! pro$ides t#e s#arin! o

inormation by means o %ebsite, e*mail, and instant messen!er, and manyot#er ser$ices" is is because o I'&" So, I'& is deined as t#einterconnection o stand*alone computers across and bet%een institutions,

and is a !eneral set o tools and skills t#at can be applied to a %ide ran!e o

or!ani9ations" ereore, #ard%are include in I'& are: ser$er mac#ines,interaces, access net%orks, interconnectin! medium (tec#nically c#annels)
