  • Abstract
    Major trends in computer development since World War II are briefly surveyed. Microelectronics, artificial intelligence, and computer systems and architecture are identified as the principal disciplines that will lead to a new generation of machines. Also discussed are limitations of present systems, exploiting parallelism through VLSI and multiprocessor architectures, and the current piecemeal approach to speed.
