Barriers in IS/IT

As I made a research, there were different informations that made me confused. Others did not convince me but one won my approval.
If we are to define barrier – it is something stopping progress or preventing approach. Easy to define and to spell but what really are the barriers in IS/IT?

Lack of current information for planning and developing technology
Lack of expertise in the use of information
Lack of international cooperation in developing the critical mass needed for projects and joint efforts.
Lack of interaction (lack of confidence and sometimes lack of information) between universities and industries


Studies developed new informations and strategies that are to be used for the development of technologies. These were conducted to help and attain these words – effective, easy and fast. So why not have those current informations and not just rely on the obsolete ones?

For the second spot, let me have an example as what I have understand. We have this word “information” and we are to create a sentence using that word. How can we create a sentence using that word if we, ourselves, do not know what the word means and how that word will be used that will suit to the sentence the way we deliver it? And how can we create a sentence if we just ignore it and don’t have the desire to know the definition of that word? If we are to connect, gathering, sharing, and knowing how to use those informations, contributes to the development of the IS/IT. In contrast, no development would happen.

For the third barrier, without participating in international affairs, current informations and technologies could be ignored. We could be emaciated from those new ideas and techniques, and we are refusing the help from those external source.

Communication is what the last spot trying to point out. When there is a communication, there can be understanding. Lack of communication could have done nothing at all.

The barriers in IS/IT were identified by this site: http://www.unm.edu/~jreenen/dlbook/chapter9.html
