Abstract

Standing in front of the next millennium a view back to the development of natural and social sciences seems to be adequate. The remarkable start of quantum theory at the beginning of this century and the resulting progress in optics and material sciences, the extreme tendency to minimize the geometrical dimensions of semiconductor devices and its simultaneous increase in the storage capacities of e.g. hard discs and RAMs, new completely different construction possibilities of mechanical devices via the use of new materials, better coatings with very specific properties may illustrate a very few of the many innovations and inventions characterizing our current state of the art in natural sciences and engineering.
