Computing
Software for the LHC era is more complicated and more important than before.
Object Oriented technology seems to win. (But what will come next ?)
- CPU speed doubles every 1.x years => no problem
- storage capacity doubles every 2.x years => real problem, should be solved
- connection speed doubles every 3.x years => not problem, cannot be solved =>
distributed computing is fiction
