It’s not a new term for the global economy. The semi conductor and hardware industries in the 1970’s and the automobile industry in the 1980’s have seen earlier forms of offshoring. Later the manufacturing and production industry adopted this strategy and now almost all industries using IT and IT enabled services implement offshoring as a business strategy. So what is different between the early forms of offshoring and the current form of offshoring? We believe that early forms of offshoring affected only a specific industry whereas the present day offshoring potentially affects almost all industries and businesses. This is primarily because application of Information Technology has made businesses more manageable and more profitable than without IT. Thus almost all businesses are using IT and it follows that IT offshoring will affect almost all businesses and industries. Our thesis involves studying the impact of offshoring in the field of computer science. In particular, we examine the social and ethical implications of offshoring with relevance to IT. 2006-11-21 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1164081419 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1164081419 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
