- Vision [1]
- High-speed networks, systems, software, devices, data, and applications are fully secure, safe, reliable, multimodal, and
easy to use. This ultra-high-bandwidth infrastructure -- including both flexible, mobile wireless and hard-wired connectivity
-- is always available, ubiquitous, and can be activated when needed; it is affordably accessible to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
Information shared over the infrastructure is completely secure; user privacy and confidentiality can be assured on demand;
and pervasive repositories provide for archiving and retrieving data in perpetuity. In the all-encompassing dimension called
cyberspace, people -- unfettered from constraints of time, circumstance, and location -- partner with computing devices and
their capabilities to learn, imagine, discover, play, create, invent, interact, and collaborate in real time in ways that
enhance life and generate solutions for the world's most complex problems.
