Investigation

You are going to investigate an emerging computer technology of your choice.

An emerging technology is a new area of development that is not currently widespread. Sometimes emerging technologies happen when several existing technologies are brought together to form something new - called convergence. Sometimes emerging technologies are a result of research into a new area.

Pick an emerging computer technology that you have heard of. If you can't think of any, look at this list of emerging technologies, though be careful as only some of them are computer related. Check with your teacher if it is suitable.
