Emerging Technology Part1

I decide to do my research on A Faster Fourier Transform, which is about the speed of how our computers react to things happening. A group at MIT have discovered a breakthrough in algorithms. After reading this article I can assume that our internet and computer speeds are going to increase. The thing that surprised me the most was finding out that their is a link between algorithms and how fast our computers are. I also feel that if we can some how create an even more efficient algorithm, then who knows. Maybe we won't have to wait at all for a web page to load, it will just load in a fraction of the time.

An emerging technology that is still used today from the year 2009 are memory chips. Memory chips are now in game consoles and in computers, and are able to store a couple thousand times more then before. I feel that soon though, flash drives and memory chips are going to become obsolete do to cloud storage now.
