CMN 170 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Technological Singularity, Web Ontology Language, Dominant Design
Document Summary
Standardized solutions to address typical needs, derived from knowledge about the world and embedded in physical structure. To address typical needs, need to imagine the impossible. Frozen accidents often set future standards: strategic business-alliances, performance trade-offs. Invention: new combinations in the realm of technical possibilities. Innovation: new combinations in the realm of economic possibilities. Not all inventions become innovations, not all innovations get diffused. Innovations: derived from inventions from entrepreneurs and managers with profit in mind, not random, shaped by context, path-dependent. Technological lag between developed countries and developing countries. Knowing when a new wave of technology is coming, and to save money and catch up to the newest technology. Every year, computational power doubles with regard to its costs. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic . Web 3. 0 = internet of things (iot), internet of everything (ioe), semantic web. Web ontology language (owl) one world language .
