Abstract: This paper will examine selected current and projected future technologies as they relate to information processing and distribution. The examination is not exhaustive and has as its focal point the agricultural community in general and more specifically animal health· issues. This paper will first review some basic concepts as they relate to information processing and the utilization of information by decision makers. The paper will then examine the various components of an information system and attempt to identify the likely future trends as they relate to these various components.
