| Abstract | The recurring theme to this set of 11 barriers is that communication, willingness to learn and commitment are the key elements to progress. The encouraging aspect is that each of these elements is within industry's control; they are human barriers that are not defined by technological bounds. Certainly technology will present significant barriers, but those too will be surmountable in less time if people communicate, open their minds and commit themselves. |
