"Those who have met Hasso Plattner have found the experience exhilarating. His mind produces a steady stream of questions, ideas, and probing analysis. Most conversations begin with an invitation to attack and challenge the ideas he is setting forth. Doing battle with Hasso is a unique pleasure. The goal of this book is to recreate something of that experience for the reader."
–From the Introduction

Thinkers like Hasso Plattner have always stretched the boundaries of the possible. Refusing to accept the limitations of so-called reality, they ask "What if…?" and then give form and substance to the solutions they envision.

Aided by observations from the greatest technological and business minds of our time, this book recognizes Hasso’s accomplishments as it relates the history of the real-time enterprise and invites you to share in its future.

You’ll review SAP’s vision for real-time technology, analyze the transformation produced by client/server computing and the all-pervasive network, explore the interaction between organizational structure and the capabilities of real time, and recognize the challenge confronting user interfaces and human/computer interaction. Finally, you will observe how the emerging nervous system of RFIDs, voice recognition, virtual collaborative environments, and other leading-edge technologies is shaping our world.

You will discover how applications must evolve today to meet the challenges of the real-time enterprise tomorrow. It’s an incredibly exciting evolution of understanding and practice, and you are invited to be part of it.
