Developments in Networked Information: Review and Prospects
Clifford Lynch
This is the now-traditional extended preview of parts of the plenary talk that I’ll give at the CNI fall member meeting in the week of December 9. It will cover recent developments that I’m tracking, and discuss near-term prospects and opportunities. Since we have more time than I will at the CNI plenary and the scope of this talk is more constrained, I’ll be able to go into more depth on some of the topics.
