Is the 747-400 Fly By Wire? If so, what part of the Flt Control system utilizes this technology?
Not in the generally understood sense. All flight controls are connected to the cockpit with cables, pushrods, etc.

OTOH, the engine controls (thrust levers) are connected to the engines via electronics only.
