convergence
Traditionally, it means the coming together of people, ideas, or things in ways that did not happen before. Within IT, it means the coming together of the computer, consumer electronics, and telecommunications industries and the merging of gadgets, such as the PC, the TV, and the telephone. Pundits believe convergence may mark the end point of the digital revolution, in which all types of digital information (voice, video, and data) will travel over the same network.
