| Abstract: | The dramatic changes in the industrial structure since World War II owe much to technological advances that have enabled corporations to pursue their endeavors on unprecedented scale, as in mass production and mass retailing. 1 characterized my management emphasis as ‘C&C’ which stands for the integration of computers and communications. C&C is a technological frontier that has spawned a continuing stream of new products and advanced concepts. C&C, however, is a very different kind of technological advance. As C&C takes hold in society and as information networks mature, information will become the central element in new amalgams with the other traditional corporate resources: people, money, and property. |
