that time the computers are used to collect data
-interconnection between advancement of computer and technology
and the increase demand for nursing data
1960 Computer was then developed and evolved as computing power in the
clinical field
-Informatique
-refers to computer science
-covers NI
-nurses uses the compact, concise to process easier
-NI minimize loopholes in the area
