The purpose of this note is to provide some insight about the change from analog to digital, the increasing penetration of digital technologies in our lives, the increasing performance of that technology, and the effects of this digitization. It begins with an examination of the analog world and is followed by an analysis of digitization. This includes discussion of the move to digital and direct benefits of digital media, as well as the amplifiers of digitization benefits (Ubiquity, Connectivity, Flexibility, Modularity, Integration, and Computation).
