How do you see the future of computing ?
yannis: Ten years from now, will not be much more different. Essentially computing needs a breakthrough to move to the next level. What this breakthrough is nobody knows. A program written in the latest fashionable language of to-day is essentially not much more different from one written in Cobol or Fortran or Ada 30 years ago. We refining the tools but not discovering any new fundamentals.I expect such a breakthrough to be achieved via two possible paths:(a) By brute force : the effect of interconnecting the worlds information via the internet.(b) Parallel processing to be stimulated further by breakthroughs in bio-informatics.
