Information Technology Poem by John Sensele

Information mediated electronically enables
Numerous numerical processing,
First digital data storing machine was Ferranti Mark I from Manchester university,
Optical devices store digital data
Random access memory plays a vital role,
Magnetic drums once stored vast amounts of data
Analog data overtaken by electronic data,
Terrabyte storage capacity available,
Internet-friendly,
Oracle made first relational database management system,
Novel effects: automation, information and transformational in business and industry.

Technology powers artificial intelligence,
Electronic digital data stored in in hundreds of exabytes,
Computer hardware and software essential,
Hard disks still stored larger quantities of data,
Normalise and modernise all aspects of daily life.
Obviously addictive!
Local area networks play a vital role,
Operating systems drive all computers,
GIGO is one of its favourite acronyms,
Yes, globalisation thoroughly depends on Information and Communication Technologies.
