The 21st century is on the doorstep, and the Information Revolution is firmly knocking at the door. In the high-technology revolution of the 1990s, computers, television, the Internet, and allied information technologies (IT) are changing our lives, just as steam power, electricity, and the internal combustion engine transformed our lives in the past. Today, the emphasis is on information gathering, processing and distribution. It is expected that the 21st century will be dominated by IT and allied technologies, as Spyros Makidakis predicted. |
