The future is always ahead of you: the more you move forward the more it moves away from you… Nevertheless we have taken up the challenge: Based on a systematic methodology, we have elaborated on a vision which, amid the thousands of possibilities, highlights the most probable future with respect to developments and usage of ICT (Information and Communication Technology). Major part of the Vision 2015 project was to look into the past in order to anticipate future developments and challenges in the ICT. Taking into consideration both, technological and societal trends, we then have developed a number of storylines covering different aspects of the every-day life in order to understand how these trends could affect the evolution of the ICT world in different domains (e.g. work, mobility, health care) and which new ICT applications could be commercialized and adopted by 2015.
We are certain our vision will trigger a lot of enlightened discussions…
