At a recent e-business research meeting, I was asked the following questions: ''Five years from now, what will be happening with the Internet, and what breakthrough research projects in e-business will have contributed to the changes?'' My (intentionally provocative) answer was: ''Lots of good things will happen, but none of them will be enabled by research breakthroughs.'' To understand my thinking, let''s look at the present from the perspective of the not-too-distant future.
