Information and Communication Technologies
Definition
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is a term that covers all advanced technologies in manipulating and communicating information. ICT within the SCUBE-ICT project defined in the «ICT Work Programme 2009-10» as a part of Seventh Framework Programm for research and technological development in the Europe.
