Technology and Communication Paper CJA/304
Technology and Communication In present-day, technology has been established to be tremendously essential and efficient, and has been embedded in our lives currently to the point of being close to a necessity. In Criminal Justice, the ardent use of technology has proven to be of tremendous help in many areas of the field. The incorporation of the computer systems in criminal justice tremendously has improved the general communication between agencies as the new methods of transferring information among departments. In addition, it has become much more resourceful and efficient in that it is much simpler to acquire the data at a more rapid rate, hence, speeding up the time it takes to prevent or solve crimes. The intent of this paper is to deliver an insight toward the efficiency of the methods in which technology was being used inside the criminal justice system. There are many departments both inside and outside the criminal justice system that relies greatly on the use of advanced technology, as it appears to be a big help in many areas of the professional field, some of which includes Medical Services, fire departments, and law enforcement agencies. On the whole, all these agencies and more now rely on information and communication for their tasks to be effective and advance technology has certainly has necessitated true production and efficiency. Before the new discovery of advance technology, information was (and still is) documented on paper and stockpiled in boxes or filing cabinets. Now all it takes are a few click of a button to pull this information in a much faster way with computer systems. Information can now be retained from building structures a few feet away on a department computer, or even miles and many miles away from a remote computer location using a computer networking system. As fast as this information can be retained, is also can be disbursed at a rapid rate throughout the law
