EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Several revolutionary forces are at work in the computer technology world today. Most importantly, it is not the speed at which hardware has been improved nor software has been created, but the evolution of computer to become part of the so-called global telecommunications village. The arrival of Internet, which serves as a convenient means of access to all computers worldwide, has opened all computer users to an unlimited wealth of information and data, and indeed a new era of information proliferation. This process will reshape human life in a way telephone did more than hundred years ago.
The exponential growth in the population of computer users has been made possible by the development of numerous increasingly user-friendly software. People formerly deterred by highly technical applications and jargons can now explore new areas of computer functions, leading to the steady growth in computer literacy and penetration. From the embryonic stage of being a simple device to computer, from which the word Computer” is derived, the machine has now been given new dimensions by incorporating the previous functions of TV sets, telephone, fax machines, CD and VCD players, and sound recorders. And the list will undoubtedly gain in length in the future.
All these developments are aided by the advent in the processing hardware that formed the physical backbone of any system. It is not an understatement, perhaps, that it will be faster for the manufacturer to double the processor speed than that a user needs to accustom to the existing version.
