Abstract:
Change in information systems is a continuation of the development of technology, systems, and the urban environment throughout history. This paper puts this into perspective through three areas. By considering housing, jobs, and communication as a representative selection of functions based on Cooley’s Theory of Transportation, it is possible to demonstrate the increasing need for a structured and deliberate consideration of the changing needs and opportunities inherent in a developing technology and communications-driven environment. These needs can be mirrored through housing, job, and communications needs as a progression of technology and through decentralization via communications and networks.
