Shawndra Hill, professor of operations and information management at Wharton, and Shaji Farooq, senior vice president for advanced technologies at Wipro, weigh the opportunities and challenges that advanced technologies bring in this white paper produced by Knowledge at Wharton and sponsored by Wipro Technologies.
