Abstract

Looking into the future to predict the ICT and define the long term research objectives to make it come true is a necessary and also exciting exercise. The freedom of thought that is needed to define really advanced and novel concepts is sometimes obscured by the difficulty to get rid of the existing infrastructure. A tabula rasa approach is for sure interesting, but it must be based on a clear understanding of the current development path, relieved from myths and misconceptions.
