Chapter 1

The document introduces emerging technologies and their evolution through industrial revolutions. It discusses how emerging technologies are developed through gradual changes and progress. The four industrial revolutions are described: 1) use of steam power in the 1700s; 2) introduction of electricity, telephones, and analog systems in the late 1800s; 3) transition to digital systems and computers in the 1950s; and 4) current era of artificial intelligence, internet of things, and cyber-physical systems. The document also examines the role of data and computers in enabling new technologies and the importance of human-computer interaction for effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity.

Chapter-One
Introductions to emerging technologies
Emerging Technology 2
 Refers to
• a new technology or
• a continuing technology or
• a technology expected to be developed in the near future
and will have an affirmative significance in social, economic and political aspects of
human life.
 Technologies
• emerged
• created
• enhanced and
• developed through progress called evolution of technology.
 Evolution of technology is a process of developing the science of mechanical and
industrial arts through gradual changes.
Industrial Revolutions 3
 During the late 1700s to early 1800s industrial revolution was started in England.
 Societies started
• to use new sources of energy like coal
• to migrated from rural areas to cities
• to develop new transportations, communication systems and industries.
 Industrial revolution
• Relocated productions of goods from small homes and shops to large factories.
 Industrial revolutions that our world come across until are
• Industrial revolution(1.0)
• Industrial revolution(2.0)
• Industrial revolution(3.0)
• Industrial revolution(4.0)
Cont. . . 4

 Industrial revolution(1.0)
• First started in England during 18th century.
• Transition from hand production to new manufacturing processes.
• Steam engine was used by production machines and transportation systems.
 Industrial revolution(2.0)
• Started in the late 1870s, also called technological revolution.
• Electricity power and telephones were introduced during this era.
• Mechanical systems started to be replaced with electric driven ones.
• Analog communications
 Industrial revolution(3.0)
• Started in the late 1950s.
• Transitions done from analog systems to digital, so called digital revolution.
• Computer, handphones and internet were introduced.
Cont. . . 5

 Industrial revolution(4.0)
• The current era in industrial revolutions.
• Artificial Intelligence introduced.
• AI realizes autonomous cars, automated robots, IoT and smart cities.
• Cyber-physical systems, a computer based algorithm driven anything, anywhere and
anytime.
 The four types of industries:
• The primary industry involves getting raw materials e.g. mining, farming, and fishing.
• The secondary industry involves manufacturing e.g. making cars and steel.
• Tertiary industries provide a service e.g. teaching and nursing.
• The quaternary industry involves research and development industries.
Role of Data: For emerging technologies 6

 Data is a raw fact, used as an input for enormous applications.


 In todays world data considered as:
• a new oil
• a strategic asset
• a potential resource
that have a capability to determine the future of science, technology, the economy, and possibly
everything.
 Data is very crucial for the emerging of new technologies.
 Its the data that leads the world towards innovations.
 We’re living in the age of big-data, where everything is accordingly to the data driven
theories.
Computer and Enabling Devices 7

 A computer also referred by the name “programmable device”. Why?


• A computer don’t have an IQ.
• Therefore it acts according to the preset instructions encoded to it called programs.
 A computer ( programmable devices) mainly possesses:
1. Memory: storages RAM, ROM, Secondary storages
2. Microprocessors:- control unit + registers + arithmetic and logic unit
3. Logic: are circuits that drive a computer
4. Network devices: also called service-enabling devices like modem, switch and routers.
Network is interconnections of computing devices, peripherals, servers and etc. to allow data
and resources sharing.
 List of programmable devices:
• Arria II GX
• Actel’s
Human Computer Interaction 8

 Also called human-machine interaction.


• focused on man-machine communication techniques.
• deals with design, evaluation and implementation of interactive systems.
• there are several interaction approaches like command line, GUI, gesturing and etc.
 HCI studies:
• Users behaviors
• Communication approaches
• Computer advancements in enabling interactions.
 HCI is crucial in enhancing:
• Effectiveness • Durability
• Efficiency • Reliability
• Usability • Productivity of a system.
• Universality
Cont. . . 9

 Disciplines in Human Computer Interaction


• Cognitive psychology :-to study human behaviors.
• Computer science
• Linguistics
• Engineering and Design
• Artificial intelligence
• Human factors
• Ergonomics and etc.
Future trends: In emerging technologies 10

 Emerging technology trends in 2019:


• 5G networks • Digital twins
• Artificial intelligence • Enhanced edge computing and
• Autonomous device • Immersive experience in smart space
• Blockchain
• Augmented reality

 Some emerging technology that will shape your future:


• Emerging technologies are taking over, affects everybody.
• Chatbots
• Virtual or augmented reality
• Blockchain
• Ephemeral Apps and
• Artificial Intelligence are already shaping your life.
