Getting the Foundations Right

Fiona Czerniawska and Gavin Potter

Chapter 16 in Business in a Virtual World, 1998, pp 206-221 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The information technology revolution is, literally, revolutionising the way in which we do business. Hardware costs continue to halve every 18 months; software applications are continuing to make our existing hardware obsolete (as we write this book, continuous speech recognition is rapidly appearing as the next hardware-killing application); accommodating new users and responding to new competitors demand new technological changes; new methods of collecting information continue to generate vast quantities of data that can be ignored only at your peril.
