Industry Analysis

...Industry Analysis: Trends in Technology Cloud Technology The era of Cloud technology will be a major influence on how we operate in 2014. Peter High (2013) notes on a Forbes article that cloud technology will push more towards services than devices. Google should focus on integrating cloud technology as services for their existing technology. People want access to their files anywhere and it just doesn’t make sense to bring more equipment around when they have access to it immediately using Wi-Fi or cloud synced devices. Smart Machines Peter High (2013) states that personal assistants and autonomous vehicles will be big players in 2014. People want instant access to answers for questions they may have and they also want to live life easier. Siri was a game-changer in personal assistance and now Google may have the opportunity to expand on that and make smart machines even bigger in 2014. Mobile Apps and Applications Technology is HUGE. Applications have become high in demand and any way to integrate applications into everyday life proves to be successful. Peter High (2013) predicts that Java Script will improve and HTML5 will be largely implemented into those apps making much smoother and professional looking apps. Customers want sleek design and easy use. Sources High, Peter (October 2013). Gartner: Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends for 2014.

Newton

...Apple created the Newton project with the vision to reinvent the world of personal computing. This vision was short lived as The Newton project fell victim to “scope creep” and project slippage. Additionally, they also feared it may cannibalize the sales of other Macintosh products. Considering these issues, Apple was forced to seek alternative directions to take the project. Through analysis by management of Apple, the Newton project was reinvented as a Personal Digital Assistant device. This would allow for the Newton to act more as a complementary Macintosh product rather than a stand-alone computer which might compete with Macintosh. Prior to 1993, the market for Personal Digital Assistant devices was not very well explored. Apple had hopes that they would benefit from first mover advantages of the PDA. Through identifying the PDA market and pivoting the direction of the Newton project, Apple began development for the PDA in 1987. Six years later, on August 2, 1993, Apple launched the product. It was based on a RISC processor which featured handwriting recognition and an operating system based on advanced object-oriented programming language (Chiesa&Frattini, 2011:445). The product is known to be a huge financial disaster for Apple. They poured a billion dollars in the project’s development and launch and recouped only about one quarter of the amount in sales (Anderson, 2012). After the Newton had been on the market for one year, sales were in the projected target...
