Extending the Radar Lessons

         Future trends in computing span the entire value chain from core computing and networks, to devices and sensors, to new forms of user interfaces and human computer interaction.

         Grid computing enables us to tap into computing resources upon demand much like traditional utilities such as water, gas, telephone, and electricity.

         Power line networking is starting to blur the lines between electrical power delivery and data delivery.

         Wearable devices are a future trend as mobile devices morph into the ultimate in mobility by becoming wearable as gloves, headsets, and other form factors. Wearable devices provide the advantages of automation without the disadvantage of the process change to accommodate the technology.

         Fuel cells are an emerging technology that provides much longer life than traditional lithium-ion batteries They can last three to five times longer and are more environmentally friendly.

         Artificial intelligence is being applied for a variety of business productivity applications including improved search capabilities, email filtering and prioritization, system troubleshooting, meeting facilitation, data mining, multimodal interfaces, and notification platforms.

         Multimodal interfaces can combine multiple interaction modes such as computer vision and speech recognition together with intelligent data analysis in order to help computers understand more about a business user's context and priorities.

         Speech recognition is being used improve the usability of handheld wireless devices with server-side voice recognition, streamed wirelessly from the device, being used to offload the processing requirements on the device itself.
