Abstract :
Software growth has significantly impacted the computer industry and is changing many other electronics industries. It is not a question of whether intellectual property will be sold in the form of software, but which companies will do it successfully. The actions electronics companies take today will ultimately determine how large a role they will play in a world increasingly dominated by software
