Title:     Superconducting RF, the history, challenges, and promise

Abstract: After a short survey of on-going accelerator applications, I will discuss future applications prospects for this enabling technology, both near term and long term.  A selection of technology highlights will serve as an introduction to outstanding issues for all types of applications, from pulsed high gradient to CW medium gradient.
