IT Trend Laws & Top 3 Trends
"
Law 1: IT advances in a direction to provide as much access to information, in as many modes, forms and granularity, as possible.
Law 2: IT advances in a direction to automate as many tasks as possible.
Corollary: When complying with Laws 1 and 2, IT invariably creates unmanageable complexity.
Law 3: IT advances in a direction to simplify itself.

Recently, I am choosing my research subject, or rather paper subject, it's time for me to prepare for paper - I must post a research paper on national first-class magazine before my graduation from ISCAS.
IT Trend Laws was adopted from a blog , I agree with it partly. IT will go foreword with the direction of people's need.
From a top level of abstraction, Kasravi give us the top three IT trends:
"
Visibility suggests that IT systems try to provide greater access to information. So, trends such as VoIP, Security and Content management fall in this category.
Automation is about automating the manual and mundane tasks, letting people do something more important. Self-healing, Policy-Based Management and Machine Learning are examples of automation.
Simplification is about making IT less complex for both IT users and IT professionals. Examples of this category include SOA, Model-Driven Architecture and Biometrics.
"
Now we have our top 3 IT trends: Visibility, Automation and Simplification, which seem to capture the essence of most new IT solutions.
PS:
After drilling in IT for many years, maybe 4 or 5, I lost my interesting in technologies, I have no incentive to learn more. I don't know where I will go and where I will arrive. Pressure and hard work have made me thinkless.
