Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 6 page paper discussing the likely directions of IT in the first 10 or 15 years of the new century. As the boundaries between IT and the rest of the business blur, those designing, implementing and executing these and other changes will need to be conversant not only in business, but also in IT capabilities. Those currently in IT only will need to gain greater knowledge of the business needs of the organization.

are just beginning will be commonplace. This will be enabled, he noted, by advances in chips, connectivity and computing devices" (Trembly, 2002; p. 18).
IBM coined a phrase referring to "technology with self-regulating and self-healing technologies" (Knorr, 2002; p. 106), naming the new approach as "autonomic computing." Smart machines increasingly
will be able to monitor and adjust themselves according to conditions that exist or arise. Taking advantage of these changes and advances in
capabilities will translate to the final death of the piecemeal approach to building and maintaining an IT infrastructure and operating systems. Increasingly, "strategic planning will be an increasingly important
