Abstract: Abstract Those who have read Arthur C. Clarke’s famous short story, “Dial F for Frankenstein,” published in 1961, may recall his prescient prediction of an increasingly interconnected telephone network that sort of goes berserk and starts global chaos by taking over all financial, transportation, and military systems. So Clarke, much as he had also visualized a tablet computer, did have visions of an interconnected communications system.
