Technology Drivers of Infrastructure Evolution
Moore law and microprocessing power
computing power doubles every 18 months
Nanotechnology: May shrink size of transistor to width of several atoms
Contary factors: Heat dissipation needs,power consumption concerns
Law of mass Digital Storage
The amount of data being stored each year doubles
Cost of storing has decreased exponentially
Metacalfe Law and network economics
Value or power of a network grows exponentially as the number of network members increase
As network member increase,more people want to use it
