Each advance leads to additional possibilities, problems, and refinements. The acceleration of technological change inspires and thrills some people, but confuses and even alienates others. This phenomenon is the Nature of Technology. The Nature of Technology is just one component of the fabric that contains the essence of technology. Technology affects other academic disciplines such as the humanities and the sciences.
Technology has a similar cyclical type of relationship with science.
The science community seeks to understand nature and technology seeks to design a human solution. As scientists theorize and understand more about our physical and biological world, technologists take that understanding and design a human solution. This, in turn, opens up new areas of research for science. Thus, the cyclical relationship continues. Mathematics becomes a vital tool that is used universally by both science and technology.
