"Global Technology Outlook"
The Global Technology Outlook (GTO) is IBM’s projection of the future for information technology (IT). It highlights emerging software, hardware, and services technology trends that are expected to significantly impact the IT sector in the next 3-7 years. In particular, the GTO identifies technologies that may be disruptive to an existing business, have the potential to create new opportunity, and can provide new business value to our customers. The 2005 GTO focuses on six topics: Hardware Technology and Systems, A Revolution in Enterprise Software, Innovation in Services, Metadata, Speak to IT and Characteristics of On-Demand. In this talk, Dr. Mohan will share the GTO 2005 findings with the audience.
