Information and communication technologies arebecoming the most important factors in the competitiveness of nations and enterprises in the 21st century. Technologies such as the internet, mobile communications, electronic commerce and wireless communication have been developed rapidly in Taiwan. Applications of the internet and mobile communications are gradually improving people's daily lives.
