Machine learning and big data analysis. There are going to be more and more devices and apps spewing a firehouse of data, and someone needs to make sense of that data. More importantly, computers will need to make decisions based on that data.

A decade is a long time in the tech world.

Machine learning and big data are already getting a lot of interest but if you want to see trends, you can refer to companies like Google, Miscrosoft, and Facebook investing humungous amounts of capital on forms of Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality.

This has the potential to disrupt many industries if executed well and as a result, specialists in those fields will be in high demand.

Yes to that. Internet of things won't make any less data either :)
