A. READING
THE INFORMATION AGE
Many terms have been used to describe the process of using computers to improve the productivity and general environment of the office, but office automation is the one that is perhaps most widely accepted. In general, office automation refers to the use of computer, communication, and office equipment technologies to support the many activities that occur in the business environment.
The information explosion that has occurred during the last two decades has resulted in a shift of economic emphasis from heavy industry to information processing. Computers have been an essential element in this shift. They are necessary to handle the vast quantities of data. They increase worker productivity, and they help workers cope with the increasing rate of change and instability in modern world. Furthermore, computers have the potential for allowing office personnel greater freedom in terms of when and how they do their jobs.
The offices of various kinds of organizations differ greatly, and many modern offices are undergoing drastic change. In fact, with the introduction of data communications, workers can be widely dispersed. However, in general, office workers perform the functions of generating, gathering, filing, retrieving, analyzing, and communicating information.
Computer are used in the field of health care for various purposes. Maintaning accounts and other administrative duties are performed by the computer. In addition, patient care functions are often computer controlled. Computers monitor, or watch a patient’s vital signs, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature. This allows for better quality health care because doctors and nurses have the opportunity to devote more time to individual patients. Up-to-date medical information and personal patient histories can be obtained immediately. Therefore, computers also aid medical personnel by helping them make intelligent decisions in life-threatening situations.
