Emerging it trends

• Artificial Intelligence endeavors to simulate the natural

  intelligence of human beings into machines, thus making

  them behave intelligently.
• (a knowledge base is a store of information

  consisting of facts, assumptions and rules which an AI

  system can use for decision making)
• Machine Learning is a subsystem of Artificial

  Intelligence, wherein computers have the ability to learn

  from data using statistical techniques, without being

  explicitly programmed by a human being.
• Natural Language Processing (NLP) system deals with the

  interaction between human and computers using human

  spoken languages, such as Hindi, English, etc.
• Machine translation is a rapidly emerging field where

  machines are able to translate texts from one language to

  another with fair amount of correctness. Another emerging

  application area is automated customer service where a

  computer software can interact with customers to serve their

  queries or complaints.
• Virtual Reality (VR) is a three-dimensional, computer-generated

  situation that simulates the real world.
• The superimposition of computer generated perceptual information

  over the existing physical surroundings is called as Augmented

  Reality (AR).
• A robot is basically a machine capable of carrying out one or more

  tasks automatically with accuracy and precision. A robot is

  programmable, which means it can follow the instructions given

  through computer programs. Sensors are one of the prime

  components of a robot.
• This results in the generation

  of data sets of enormous

  volume and complexity called

  Big Data.
• Data analytics is the process of examining data sets in order

  to draw conclusions about the information they contain, with

  the aid of specialized systems and software.
• The ‘Internet of Things’ is a network of devices that have an

  embedded hardware and software to communicate (connect and

  exchange data) with other devices on the same network.
• Cloud computing is an emerging trend in the field of information

  technology, where computer-based services are delivered over

  the Internet or the cloud, for the case of their accessibility form

  anywhere using any smart device.
