As the interconnectivity between humans through technical devices is becoming ubiquitous, the next step is already in the making: ambient intelligence, i.e. smart (technical) environments, which will eventually play the same active role in communication as the human players, leading to a co-evolution in all domains where real-time...
The science of computing has come a long way since the late 1930s, when
John Vincent Atanasoff and Clifford Berry began work on the first electronic
