Work Patterns for the 1990s — The Impact of the Information Technology Revolution

Abstract

Possibly the most important influence for work patterns in the 1990s is what has become known as information technology. This technology has developed through the electronics revolution that has taken place over the last 15 years, and which is based around the miniaturisation of electronic components. The “microchip”, which is at the centre of this revolution, is itself the logical end result of the electronic industry's headlong drive to miniaturise.
