NDLI: Trends in electronic business data systems development

Abstract	When I began a week or ten days ago to think seriously about preparing for this talk, I came up with the conclusion that it is probably considerably more difficult now than it was a few years ago for a luncheon speaker to prepare a talk on the application of modern electronic techniques to business and industry. It seems to me, relatively speaking, only yesterday that any one of us who found himself in the position of giving a luncheon talk to an audience such as this could be pretty certain of attracting and holding the audience's attention if he only took time the preceding evening to make a few simple calculations to permit the recital during the talk of how much faster electronic equipment could add 2 and 2 and get 4 than a good human mathematician with a pencil and paper. Then it seems to me that, as soon as this luncheon-talk thesis was worn out, we found ourselves in another era in which the popular subject for luncheon talks was quite different, but still easy from the point of view of the speaker.
