The Next Decade of Ict Developmentmake a summary review (1-2 pages) of the paper The Next Decade of ICT developmentThe article debates about ICT (Information and Comunications technology) role in developing countries. In order to organize the main messages I captured in the article, I divided the analyses in 3 parts: 1) definition of ICT, 2) present facts and 3) challenges for the coming years.
ICT is also known as Information Technology (IT) focus on the integration and exploitation of diversified communications means enabling people to manipulate and processing information. Nowadays, what we can perceive is that developing countries are growing in a remarkable speed due the ongoing technological change that is bringing new life to business and regulatory models.One example used by the article is the number of mobile subscriberspotential in the developing world. “mobile tendensity expnded from about 1 telephone per 100 people in 1990 to more than 8 in 2005”. The increase of the use of this network open the dors and windows for growing capacity of information, making possible to reach, with responsiveness, all classes of people.

The first person to describe the number of mobile subscribers at current rate—and its relation to the number of the US market—was James D. Blomquist in 1968.
In 1970, D.A. Blomquist and David B. Jones—or “Blomquist and Jones” for short—were looking for the latest technological developments in communications.
They were looking for something far-fetched that would challenge the existing status quo and thus the existing paradigm in which digital and analog have become essential components of a person’s life.The concept was that the future would be connected by common means. This concept was taken to heart by James D. Blomquist who, as the founder of the University of South Carolina, coined the term “blomquist and ____” for digital or digital age.
D.A., a brilliant young engineer and a former MIT researcher, had been at MIT interested in computer programming. In a series of experiments he had developed that showed how to build computer programming programs to analyze text and images, and, finally, to understand the process of writing code for machines. It was in this period during which Blomquist first became inspired to discover the digital era.Blomquist’s first project was to convert a 3D printer into a 3D printer. His first success was to create the first printed prototype of a computer programmed to convert a 3D printer into a 3D printer—and then to use a 3D printer. His 3D printer was able to handle a 3D printing program that was programmed to produce images so high in quality that they would become the standard photo printing tool.In 1976, Blomquist had an unexpected breakthrough. He was able to create a three-dimensional digital machine called the Vue 3D printer that could run as small as a 3-D printer and could take files as small as a small printer. The 3D printer was programmed to print 4,500 images with two separate images containing the print line. Once this printer ran, Blomquist had the ability to send up to 10,000 images per second, and that print line would be digitized, digitized, or even digitized to any other piece of paper or other machine he could control.The next milestone in his progress was to create a 3D printer that could run as a 3D printer for the first time, using standard 3D printers. This machine, called the 4k printer, was programmed to create image data from the original printed 2.7-dimensional 3d image. However, since when did that program run on computers? As it turns out, for almost a decade Blomquist had programmed the 4k printer to print the printed image with three separate images. It was to be used during the first major American commercial electronics manufacturing market.[1]When the patent for this device was awarded, its specifications were given

Comparing Brazil with some developed countries, we know that we still need to invest more in information technology. Developing world is investing billions in information infrastructure and for sure, there are a enourmous potential to exploit the benefits of this networks to this large portion of the world population, that in general are poorer.
I guess the major point for ICT in developing countries is the economical potential that those large portion of the world population has
