It is important to realize that computer-mediated communication systems are not independent entities, but must work in conjunction with individuals who are willing to use them. This enhanced capability will make Computer-Mediated Communications Systems more effective by increasing their ability to communicate information to the end users. In addition to the incorporation of multimedia, these systems will permeate organizations that traditionally do not use advanced systems to do their work. Conclusion Institutions desiring growth should rely on improved communications as a major tool in achieving their goal. The primary reason for using these types of tools is to allow members of organizations work together without time or space constraints.
Companies can focus talent that is located throughout the world on specific corporate projects.
Therefore, computer professionals should evaluate how computer-mediated communication systems can help in the design, development, and implementation of information systems. Areas of future research include quantifying the effectiveness of using computer-mediated communications systems and understanding how they can accelerate projects that involve the design, development, and implementation of large information systems.
