The Fifth Wave - Cognitive Systems

By Jack Shaw, Technology Futurist

Jack Shaw

Our society has passed through four waves of Information Technology evolution over the past fifty years. These were Mainframe Computing, Personal Computing, Client-Server Computing, and the Internet. Each changed our world more than the ones before. We are now at the brink of the Fifth Wave, Cognitive Systems. And, like its predecessors, it promises to change the world even more profoundly than they did.

For over 20 years Jack Shaw has provided expert guidance and best practices to Fortune 500 Companies (including General Electric, Coca Cola, Allstate, PacBell and many more) as well as providing advisory services to their key technology suppliers (including IBM, SAP, Oracle and others). Jack is a visionary technology and business strategist who has spent his career leading companies in numerous industries and their technology suppliers to better, more efficient ways of conducting and operating their businesses.

60 Years of AITP History and Presidential Leadership:

The AITP Atlanta Chapter has been serving IT professionals for the past 60 years through its support of professional career development, friendships, and education.

The year was 1951. Harry S. Truman was President of the United States. A 3 bedroom home cost $9,000.00. A new Ford listed for $1,480.00, postage was $.03, and a loaf of bread cost $.16. Joe DiMaggio retired from baseball, I Love Lucy premiered, and peace talks began in Korea.

We are happy to recognize the service of our Presidents to this organization from when AITP was known as DPMA to present. In addition to honoring them and their dedication to AITP, we will have the privilege to hear their experiences, advice and tales of technology. Please join us for a great night of reminiscing on past technologies, past presidential leaders, as well, as a look into the future.
