The Global Integration Agenda

After fifty years of I/T investment, almost one quarter of the accumulated, U.S. private fixed equipment assets are now computers, software, and networking products. There is tremendous diversity of technology and applications, and this diversity has two clear implications:

1. The integration of information and process in the global economy is inherently complex: dynamic, heterogeneous, multi-generational and almost unbounded in scale.
2. The integration will have manifold benefits and will continue to generate tremendous research and development opportunities.

This presentation lays out key elements of the technology agenda for people, process, and information integration, with a particular focus on the implications for both computer science education and research.
