Auditing in the 1990s: Implications for Education and Research
Elliott, Robert K.
28/4  (Summer 1986): 89-97

Not only will the subject matter of auditing change, but so will audit technology-the means of doing audits-by adopting many of the methods being developed in the disciplines of human information processing and artificial intelligence. These changes in subject matter and technology will require substantial investments in research and will demand dramatic changes in the accounting curriculum.
