Systems thinking with regard to consequences of Bell’s Law, Moore’s law or Metcalf’s Law:
Bell’s Law:
Bell’s Law is coined by Gordon Bell in 1972, which states that in every decade a new computer class is formed which establishes a new industry.
- As said by Gordon Bell digital devices will be evolved very quickly and this will enable new platforms and industries in every 10 years, one can use system thinking to deduce that currently the market is run by products of smart phones, tablets and smart watches.
- In next 10 years new wearable technological devices with implementation of augmented reality and virtual reality may rule the market.

The main() method asks the user to provide the dimension n for a square matrix. A square matrix has an equal number of rows and columns. b. The main() method receives the value of n and calls the matrixSetUp() method that creates a square matrix of size n and populates it randomly with integers between 1 and 9. c. The main method then calls another method named printMatrix() to display the matrix in a matrix format. d. The main method also calls a method named findSumAndAverage() which: • Receives the generated matrix as input. • Calculates the sum of all elements in the matrix. • Calculates the average value of the elements in the matrix. • Stores these values (sum and average) in a single-dimensional array and returns this array • e.
