Our communications infrastructure needs to change dramatically to support exciting new applications such as augmented reality, telepresence, robotics and smart cities. The common driver for these applications is that the most valuable information is new information — the information that surprises us. So, instead of a network tailored to access old information, such as movies and knowledge bases, we will need a surprise-inspired network that prioritizes new information and enables the instantaneous fusion of the new and the old.
