12) Discuss the Digital Revolution.
Answer: The Digital Revolution was the conversion from mechanical and analog devices to
digital devices. This shift to digital devices meant monumental changes for companies,
individuals, and the society as a whole. The problem was, people couldn't really understand how,
or even why, this shift was going to affect them. Much like people today, they based their future
projections on past events. They knew factories, bureaucracies, mass production, and operational
efficiency. But this knowledge didn't prepare them for the changes that were coming.
The Digital Revolution didn't just mean that new "digital" equipment was replacing old
mechanical, or analog, equipment. These new digital devices could now be connected to other
digital devices and share data among themselves. They could also work faster as processor speed
increased.

13) State Nielsen's Law. What is the implication of Nielsen's Law for managers?
Answer: According to Nielsen's Law, "network connection speeds for high-end users will
increase by 50 percent per year." Because of this law, the types of services and applications that
can be provided over networks (i.e. the Internet) have changed radically. Therefore, it is
important for managers to realize that, because of Nielsen's Law, networks will become faster,
new companies, new products, and new platforms will emerge.
