In, “The Corporate Virtual Workspace” Steve Pruitt and Tom Barrett believe that, “cyber technology will be a primary driver towards new corporate architecture.” Corporations will economically succeed with this new structure. The first part is a future scenario of Austin Curry living in his house and working in his won home of the virtual workspace, projected on a screen in his office, it is a typical office building, making it seem like he is actually there. He can go down hallways, passing is colleagues, and look out the office window as though he is actually there and joins conference rooms for meeting and project purposes. He even has virtualized clothing. His “Daily chores” consist of checking his virtual mail; call up people to talk about assignments, and uses robots to help out with his other work. The reasons for the corporate workspace are that the evolution of software technology as it becomes easier to build and use. Also, economically, it is becoming harder to build large-scale software systems. You can take the best skilled people in the world and have them work for one company. This virtual workspace will also increase productivity. But one of the best reasons is, “cyberspace will free an individual from space and time constraints.” This will allow anyone to live anywhere is the world and work at the company of their choice. For the corporation, it is great because most of the information in the company is just knowledge related, so they don’t need to hire people based on there physical skills. They can also do all of their advertising via cyberspace, which is more affordable and parallel to their company. Companies are starting to experiment with the mobility of virtual workspaces.
