THINGS TO COME

RFID, or radio frequency identification, tags contain important tracking and descriptive information about the objects

Broadband over power lines (BPL) may bring high-speed Internet access to every home

Stratellites are high-altitude, lighter-than-air ships being developed to provide a variety of communications services

Grid computing soon will become a reality. It consists of linking the processing power and data storage resources of many computers in networks dedicated to fulfilling joint goals such as serving a community of users

System security will vastly improve over the next decade. Security tokens — small, key-like devices that fit into a computer port — will replace passwords as the means by which users identify themselves to a system. Improvements in other areas — such as virus prevention and antihacker measures — also are in the works. The result will be simultaneous advances in safety and convenience
