“For the last decade,
universities have been grappling
|
with
the growing complexities arising out of the
|
pervasive
influence of information and communication
|
technologies. The underlying preoccupation has been
|
with
the means of managing the IT infrastructure
|
supporting
academic computing, administrative
|
systems
and library systems. Each domain
has had its
|
own
particular challenges with issues of reliability and
|
cost-effectiveness
being constant themes. The
|
growing
interdependence of the various systems
|
environments
led to a focus on organisational
|
restructuring
as a solution to a range of political and
|
functional
problems.
