Editor's Notes
- Good evening, MY name is altaf rehmani ; yrs of exp; HK corporations, running my own software company, both products and services.
- Boring list of events, but I do want to point out a few things. Tech trends build on one another, Innovation never stopped, Not only Computing power increased, Technology improved, but costs came down, broadband became more prevalent, user experience was revolutionized because of which people participated in a whole new world of tech. Sticking to what they have, playing catchup, working on the current trend , exploring possibilities of the future. major computing cycles were created because of these trends. Talk about open source.
- Here are the major computing trends of the last decade. None of these are outdated and each one find use in multitude of corporations.
- Another take on the trends and in regards to the user interface and device usage.
- Just I was beginning to think about the major topics I wanted to cover in this presentation, I was creating a map of how these technologies would fit under major categories. Here is what I came up with. In my humble opinion. It is impossible to cover all technologies in this presentation I humbly admit that I may have left out a few topics either due to ignorance, or relevance or simply to save time.
- Magic of xml and http was so open and spread very quickly to a lot of user interfaces. Played a significant role in the participation era of the web. Simplicity and immediate feedback can never be undermined. Social media is very much a part of web 2.0, in fact it builds on it and allows one to create and share user generated content.
- Who is not on social media ?
- Next : video of cloud computing by salesforce
- There are a multitude of viewpoints. Some cal it the natural shift as to how we think about computing and software, some hype it as a marketing hype and gimmick for positioning, designed to lock us into proprietary systems.
- Consumer first, enterprise next
- Here are some interesting facts: The number of mobile devices surpass the number of computers by almost a factor of 10 The apple ipad took only 28 days it took to sell a million units Size, apps , long battery life and lower costs means widespread usage.
- US based developers – source Giga OM
