Computer technology has been rapidly advancing over the past two decades, mostly due to high demand for personal and industrial computers. While this trend is expected to continue for a few years, Personal Computer (PCs) will slowly lose their position as the main driving factor behind the computer technology. This article starts by introducing the new devices that are likely to join or even replace PCs, maintaining the popularity of the computers in the near future. This emerging devices, which include internet appliances and smart vehicles, will pressure the computer industry to continue their current trend and deliver faster, denser and cheaper computers.
After explaining the demand that drive the computer technology, this article continues by focusing on various trends that responding a industry might fallow. Advancements in process technology are the most important reason that computer industry has been able to improve speed and density of its devices over the past few years. Although such advances will continue for the number of years, scientists anticipate serious barriers that might be rich within the next decade. This article summarizes the trends known barriers and potential alternatives related process to technology.
Hardware Trends
The future of hardware is quite shaky because of the troubles between software and hardware computer engineers and now that software could not keep up with hardware, hardware may be declining as software will take precedence. One thing to consider is that hardware cannot be eliminated completely. The market will always demand for faster, lighter, more compatible, and overall better hardware. It can be stated that hardware may not enlist as many jobs as software does currently because of the need and advances in software technology compared to hardware technology. Hardware is and will continue to create new applications that will make life and businesses easier and more successful.
A new and applicable type of technology that is used in common hardware applications is called COTS. Commercial of the shelf products commonly known as COTS, have proved to be dependable and reliable in the changing computer world. COTS allow for software developers to "deliver new products, and a hardware platform for adding custom hardware". As new hardware becomes the newest standard, USB has also taken precedence as the leader in external hardware transfers. The COTS hardware are in correct line and help new computer advances such as XML protocol and new wireless advances. (Low Risk COTS, 2005).
Software Trends
Software trends to expect in 2013
Software changes fast. So fast that sometimes it’s hard to see the trends and changes, the patterns that determine how tomorrow’s tools will work. Normally that’s no big deal – it’s exciting, right? – but in the world of business software, even subtle changes can carry implications.
We test and implement new software systems all the time, so naturally we get a pretty good idea of what’s changing. Here are 3 of the major trends we expect to see in 2013.
