Lesson 1.5: Trends in ICT Flashcards
promises significantly faster
data speeds, lower latency, and the ability
to connect a larger number of devices
simultaneously, which could pave the way
for innovations in IoT, autonomous
vehicles, and immersive experiences.
5G Connectivity
continue to have a transformative impact
across various industries. From business
operations and customer service to
healthcare diagnostics and autonomous
systems, it is being integrated to
enhance decision-making and
automation.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning
technology that
enables users to access computing
resources, such as servers, storage, and
software, over the internet. It will be used in industries like
healthcare, finance, and logistics, and will
enable companies to reduce costs,
increase scalability, and improve
efficiency.
Cloud Computing
involves processing data closer to its
source, reducing latency and improving
real-time processing capabilities. This
trend is gaining traction due to the growth
of IoT devices and the need for faster
data processing.
Edge Computing
includes robust safety measures such as AI-driven threat detection, zero-trust architecture, and enhanced
data protection.
Cybersecurity
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the
adoption of __________ and the use of
___________________. Even beyond the
pandemic, hybrid work models are likely to
remain prevalent, requiring continued
advancements in remote work technologies.
Remote Work and Collaboration Tools
is expanding, with a growing
number of connected devices and sensors
generating vast amounts of data. These
devices are being used in sectors like smart
cities, healthcare, agriculture, and industrial
automation.
IoT and Smart Devices
a rapidly-emerging technology that harnesses the laws
of quantum mechanics to solve problems too complex for classical computers.
It has the potential to revolutionize fields such as cryptography, optimization,
and complex simulations.
Quantum Computing
is being explored for
applications in supply chain management,
digital identity, and secure data sharing.
Blockchain or Blockchain Technology
refers to
the transfer of control and decisionmaking from a centralized entity
(individual, organization, or group thereof)
to a distributed network in blockchain.
Decentralization
technologies that enable
users to experience computer-generated
images and sounds in a real-world
environment. they are
being used in various industries, from
gaming and entertainment to education,
training, and remote collaboration.
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR)
is a software-based or technology-driven entity that
operates and interacts over a network, typically the internet. Such systems
require network connectivity to function properly. They can offer a wide
range of services, functions, and capabilities accessible through web
browsers or dedicated applications
Online System
Example of an online system
Online banking system that allows users to access their accounts, transfer funds, and pay bills over the internet
are systems that manage information,
when put online, it becomes online
information
Information System
refers to a specific operation or activity that can be performed over a network, such as the internet. This operation
relies on network connectivity and remote access to resources or
services to carry out a particular task
