Abstract

Information technology that cost a million dollars in 1950 will be available in the year 2000 for ten dollars. Developments in software, while not as much noticed, have been at least as remarkable as developments in computer hardware. The current and near‐term realities related to computing hardware, communication technology, storage technology, software, and the human‐computer interface are described and placed in context.
