Resumen

CANEDO ANDALIA, Rubén; RAMOS OCHOA, Raúl E  y  GUERRERO PUPO, Julio C. Informatics, Computing Science, and Information Science: an alliance for development. ACIMED [online]. 2005, vol.13, n.5, pp. 1-1. ISSN 1024-9435.

Aimed at establishing the main postures existing at the moment of defining informatics, computing and information sciences, of determining their objects of study, knowledge areas, applications, similarities and differences, and of understanding the development of Medical Informatics in the health area, a review of the literature available on the topic was made. These three disciplines are very different, but they are closely related. Even though the effects of the multiple political, economic, social, scientific and technological phenomena that characterize the development of mankind in our current historical period make the borders among scientific disciplines such as these disappear, there is something far more important: these fields of science keep searching for updated knowledge, new devices, and a better society.

Palabras clave : Informatics; Computing Science; Information Science.
