(One of the primary ways in which the Computerworld Honors Program documents the information-technology revolution is by collecting case studies submitted by its Laureates. Each case study includes a detailed description of the project ndertaken by the Laureate organization, of the project’s benefits to society, of the role played by information technology in furthering the project, and of the ways in which this use of information technology is original or innovative. The mission of the Program is to preserve and protect these records and to make them available to scholars and the general public, which it does by means of its Archives On-Line and its submissions to libraries, museums, and other research institutions around the world.)
