BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Computers
are extremely important in the modern world of today. In the fast moving life
of the modern world of today, computer holds tremendous significance. Many of
us will feel crippled without a computer, as we have gotten so used to this
machine. The importance of computers cannot be denied in the corporate or
business world, at the work place and even in one’s personal life. In the
modern work place, pen and paper are becoming extinct. It will not be long,
before pen and paper stop to exist altogether.
In
the current business around the world, most of organizations tend to expand
their market channels towards online market, aiming for increasing income,
awareness and reliability with capability of worldwide connection. At present, E-commerce
is fast gaining ground as an accepted and used business paradigm. More and more
business houses are implementing web sites providing functionality for
performing commercial transactions over the web. It is reasonable to say that
the process of shopping on the web is becoming common place.
