Change
5. Technology Cycle begins with the birth of a new technology and ends when that technology reaches
its limits and is replaced by a newer substantially better technology. ie. when
Henry Ford's Model T replaced horse-drawn carriages or when airplanes replaced
trains as a means of crossing Canada
6. S-Curve Pattern a pattern of technological innovation characterized by slow initial progress, then
of Innovation rapid progress, and then slow progress again as a technology matures and
reaches its limits
