It and safety
- 3. o Defence and Security is, by definition, an extended eco- system in which civil and military, public and private sector bodies must work together as a single team. Although it is the framework for the collaboration on which much of this activity depends, foundation IT does tend to slip into the background. • With the march of technology, the field of operations for Defence and Security organizations is changing rapidly. The civil and military use of drones is a real example of how technology changes the landscape. Within hours, an apparently minor incident can echo round the world in this new globalized Defence and Security environment.
- 5. Right from designing to testing of arms, other equipment etc computers are used. Besides that almost all of the modern weapons and other defense equipments involve computers for their proper functioning. Besides that managing database of employees and all other administration work also involves usage of computers. Computers are ubiquitous, in which way defence is exempt ? All activities in civilian side are replicated in defence services (and ministry) also. Biggest and high-value user is Defence Research & Development Organisation which was once headed by Dr. Abdul Kalam.
- 6. Applications 1 - Unified Communications Training is continuous in the armed forces – nobody can afford to stop learning – the threats are, after all,in constant evolution.Unified communications add real value in training,bringing informed expertise to the learner no matter howremote the location. 2 - Adaptive Workplace From fixed-location administrative positions to highly-mobile active units, the Defence and Security sectorsrequire dynamic and highly varied IT workplaces. 3 - IT Support Most infantry soldiers are in their early twenties:these are young people who have grown up with gaming and the internet. When they require IT support, they are used to self-service and peer-to-peer approaches.
- 7. 4-Application Testing Our Defence and Security services have always lead the way as catalysts for innovation. With the advent of cyber-security, this leadership continues. New applications are needed to help identify and counter new threats. 5- Smart Mobility The history of Defence and Security is the history of positioning resources in the right place at the right time. Today, for both people and materiel,the sophistication of positioning technology has changed the rules.
- 8. 6- Data Center Rationalization The Defence and Security services face particular challenges in data center management. On the one hand, the pressure is on to boost shared services. On the other, access control must be managed with absolute rigor. 7-Real-time Workflow Intelligence services today are bombarded with information. Correlating multiple streams of data to create usable intelligence viewpoints becomes a critical capability.
- 9. Other Applications in Defence Controlling UAV or unmannedair-crafts an example is Predator. I would recommend watchingthe shows " Future Weapons" and " Modern Marvles". The show future weapons gives an entire hour to the predator. They are also used on Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs) that uses GPS and Computers to help the missile get weapons systems onto the incoming target to destroy them. Computers are used in the logistic and ordering functions of getting equipments to and around the battlefield. Computers are used to hold records of personnel and very usefulin field hospitals. Computers are used in tanks and planes and ships to target enemy forces, help run the platform and more recently to help diagnose anyproblems with the platforms.
- 12. • Information Technology (IT) provides new ways for providers and their patients to readily access and use health information. Information Technology (IT) allows health care providers to collect, store, retrieve, transfer, information electronically. • Information Technology (IT) has the potential to improve the quality, safety and efficiency of health care. • Information Technology (IT) enables faster, more accurate diagnosis of disease. Using IT, clinicians can assemble data about all aspects of patients care, consult with specialists remotely and get evaluation of lab data and images by specialists around the world in real time.
- 13. we have CCTV security systems, alarms to protect hospitals against potential threats. CCTVs help monitoring people moving through an area and reporting that an object has been removed or left behind. • information technology plays a very important role in keeping the hospital information secured by not allowing unauthorized users to access .
- 14. • Electronic processing of care providers and insurance companies speeds up the approval of claims and payments to clinicians. • Diagnosing and treating illness require the patient’s medical and treatment history to be available for anyone who sees a particular patient. EHRs save clinicians time by not having to search for information or duplicate it in multiple locations. • Social media outlets allow patients with specific diseases to share information about specific treatments and outcomes with one another and with clinicians. As the data sets at social media sites grow, they have increasing clinical value for research
- 15. ROLE OF I.T. IN DISASTER MANAGEMENT
- 16. Advancement in Information Technology in the form of :- G.I.S., REMOTE SENSING, INTERNET, SATELLITE COMMUNICATION, etc. help in planning and implementation of emergency preparedness and response action.
- 17. A geographic information system lets us visualize, question, analyse, interpret, and understand data to reveal relationships, patterns, and trend. • Improve quality and power of analysis of natural hazards assessments. • Guide development activities, e.g., proper geographical area for construction. • Assist disaster planning by issuing regular reports.
