Growth in developing countries and improving technologies, particularly those related to semiconductors and telecommunications, is creating expanded markets for software publishers. Moreover, mobile computing devices, from cell phones to tablet computers, are opening up absolutely new platforms for software publishers. Should the contingency arise, companies will move toward “cloud computing,” which will open up software possibilities for using mobile phones like tablets, as they will no longer be hampered by their low storage capacity. Industry operators will as well increasingly use subscription-based sales models, which will help stabilize cash flows. This technological growth will continue through the five years to 2017.
