Going far beyond the newest options and features of current machines, the contributors of these 18 articles show how new ideas in information and communication technology (ICT) change how we interact with devices and each other. As they dispel myths and predict trajectories they describe changes and innovations in social networks, social computing, knowledge management, the nature of devices, online trust and customer power. They define the new infrastructure with its semantic web, flexibility, security and all-optical networks, end-to-end service agreements, mobility, pervasive information and applications of artificial intelligence. They also describe how industries will be affected by new applications, including health care, supply chain management in the retail sector, global financial markets, and the law and conclude with predictions about how humans and devices will work together in the not-so-far future. The result is well-grounded, inspiring and a bit frightening. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Learn all about the major trends and future advancements in ICT!

ICT Futures provides an insightful introduction to the major technology trends in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), and to the economic, commercial and societal environment which is shaping them.

The experienced author-team, consisting of experts from both industry and academia, addresses:

  • The interaction between people and technology - how ICT affects every day social practices; the rise of social computing; how the way we interact with information and the devices we use are changing; and how trust can be assured over the Internet.
  • The underlying ICT infrastructure - the semantic web and the semantic intranet; the real-time service-oriented infrastructure; the future optical network; self-managing networks and agents; P2P technologies; pervasiveness; mobility and wireless technology; and how all this infrastructure can be made secure.
  • ICT technology and how it is affecting industries as diverse as health, finance, retail and law.

The book covers a vast wealth of material, with a strong focus upon the impending changes to the way ICT operates.This reference is a valuable tool for people in managerial roles, CIOs, CTOs, business and technology strategists, and students undertaking technology MBAs, or technology modules in general MBAs. Professionals working in ICT will also find this book valuable.
