Disasters and the Information Technology Revolution
Disasters, 1997This paper, the second in a series of state‐of‐the art reviews, examines the evolution and possible medium‐term future of information technology (IT) in disaster management. Until the end of the 1970s, civilian application of IT to disaster management was confined to a few specialised departments of universities, large companies and government. Between

The Third Revolution in Sequencing Technology
Trends in Genetics, 2018Forty years ago the advent of Sanger sequencing was revolutionary as it allowed complete genome sequences to be deciphered for the first time. A second revolution came when next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies appeared, which made genome sequencing much cheaper and faster.

American Economic Review, 1999
In skill-biased (de-skilling) technological revolutions learning investments required by new machines are greater (smaller) than those required by preexisting machines. Skill-biased (de-skilling) revolutions trigger reallocations of capital from slow- (fast- ) to fast- (slow- ) learning workers, thereby reducing the relative and absolute wages of the ...

Chip Technologies as the Engine for IT Revolution
2015 IEEE 39th Annual Computer Software and Applications Conference, 2015Chip technologies have been one of the most powerful engines for the computer and IT revolution, and this trend will continue toward the future. Chip innovations will be reviewed through three different pattenrs: disruptive innovation, exponential innovation or Moore's Law, and cyclical innovation or Makimoto's Wave.

The impending revolution in computer technology
Papers and discussions presented at the December 3-5, 1958, eastern joint computer conference: Modern computers: objectives, designs, applications on XX - AIEE-ACM-IRE '58 (Eastern), 1958Webster gives one definition of a revolution as follows: "A total or radical change." The following discussions are concerned with a radical change in the technology which provides components for use in digital data processing systems. At the onset of a revolution it is not clear what the outcome may be.

DSP: a technology, a product, a revolution
Proceedings of the 30th European Solid-State Circuits Conference, 2004This paper gives a broad overview of the evolution of DSP chips. It started with the desire of humans to communicate with computers. It has revolutionized the way we work, live, learn and play. Technology was the first driver. It was replaced by the products we call DSPs as the drivers.

The information technology revolution
Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 1993Abstract A literature scan, Delphi survey, and interviews are used to forecast future developments in information technology. Results show that highly advanced computer hardware should become commonly available about the year 2000, including a powerful new class of superchips, portable computers, parallel processors, public information networks, and ...
