- 1. Foundations for ATM technologies A peek at the technological horizon
- 2. Introduction ATM industry and technology questions The functionality grid for a macro-perspective Case studies 1 4 Conclusion Ferdie Lochner ATMIA Africa 2011 2012/09/11 2 Conference
- 3. ATMs: Technology questions What new technologies appear on the technological horizon? How does one distinguish these technologies from each other? At what stage of their lifecycles are these technologies? Which of these technologies are useful for the ATM industry? Will these selected technologies become game changers? How do we use functional performance metrics to distinguish hype from reality? How do we track the selected technologies? Ferdie Lochner ATMIA Africa 2011 2012/09/11 3 Conference
