  • Abstract
    Technological change is putting entire industries on the betting line. For computer technologists, these shifts can mean opportunity or disappointment as one technology is replaced by another. Therefore, it is important that we consider economic and technical forces when we plan for the future. By studying predictable technology and asking "what if" questions where developments are less certain, we can envision the state of computing in another 10 years.<>
