LESSON 7: CURRENT TRENDS AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES Flashcards
CURRENT TRENDS IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY:
- CLOUD COMPUTING
- MOBILE COMPUTING &
APPLICATIONS - BIG DATA ANALYTICS
- AUTOMATION
Cloud storage and sharing is a popular trend many companies have adopted and even implemented for employee interaction.
CLOUD COMPUTING
Mobile usage and the number of applications generated have both skyrocketed in recent years.
MOBILE COMPUTING &
APPLICATIONS
Big data is a trend that allows businesses to analyze extensive sets of information to achieve variety in increasing volumes and growth of velocity.
BIG DATA ANALYTICS
- Automated processes that check invoices and other accounts-payable aspects expedite customer interactions.
- Machine processes can automate repetitive manual tasks, rather than assigning them to employees.
Automation
is the ability of a digital - computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings.
Artificial intelligence (Al)
Example of AI:
- AI face recognition
- Medical AI
- Home AI
the use of computer modeling and simulation that enables a person to interact with an artificial three - dimensional (3D) visual or another sensory environment.
Virtual reality (VR)
is effected be by motion sensors that pick up the user’s movements and adjust the view on the screen accordingly, usually in real time (the instant the user’s movement takes place).
illusion of “being there” (telepresence)
is an interactive experiences. that combines the real world and computer generated content.
Augmented reality
is a structure that stores transactional records
Block chain data
Block chain data in simple terms is a structure that stores transactional records, known as the?
block
Also known as Ultra Capacity
5G
is meant to offer higher upload and data speeds, more consistent-connection and improved capacity than previous networks
5G
KEY BENEFITS OF 5G:
- Speed upgrades
- Low latency
- Enhanced capacity
