There is a current perception that time and especially the cost of the new systems are increasing at an ever accelerating rate greater than that for improvement of the capabilities of the machines. The purpose of this symposium was to provide a forum to identify and discuss the elements contributing to the increased time and cost development, and to explore the question of what can be done to arrest and reverse the trend. Another aim of this symposium was to encourage others in the nontechnical area to join with the technical people in attacking these problems resolutely. It is considered that the meeting was successful in focusing attention on this situation, showing what technologies can do to reduce development time and cost growth, and by highlighting key areas that must be addressed to reverse the trend.
