Retrospective news, views and analysis of the IT world
Thanks to AIT contributors Richard Holway, David Butler and Sir George Cox, we have been able to digitise iconic IT publications System House and the Butler Cox Foundation’s reports and make them available to view online. AIT also commissions research into the IT industry. You can read these reports below, as well as other academic research done using our archive.
