Information is a Material
As the price of powerful CPUs approaches that of basic components, how information processing is used?and how to design with/for it?fundamentally changes. When information processing is this cheap, it becomes a material with which to design the world, like plastic, iron, and wood. This vision argues that most information processing in the near future will not be in some distant data center, but immediately present in our environment, distributed throughout the world, and embedded in things we don't think of as computers (or even as "phones").
