...Drones Technology: An Emerging Wireless Communication Trend at Workplace Allison Maestas BIS/221 March 14th, 2016 Lisa Ricks Introduction Emerging Technologies: Emerging technologies are type of new era technology which is currently developing or will be developed over next five to ten years. Emerging technologies have potential to alter business and social environment. These include IT, Wireless data communication, robotics, and bio-technologies. Drone is best example of emerging IT and wireless data transfer technology. It helps humans in many ways despite fact it has many drawbacks also. Drone technology is a type of emerging technology in which we feed commands in a flying object controlled by wireless controller. It helps us plenty of ways like Policing, delivery, entertainment, surveillance & surveying, agriculture, journalism, arts, firefighting, and nonmilitary security work (Byman, 2013). The reason for using these drones is that they are cheaper and more durable than helicopters due to their mechanical simplicity. Delivery drones are type of drones which is used to send medicines or other necessary stuff at faraway places where presence of human is hazardous for his life for example RQ-7 Shadow is capable of delivering a 20 lb (09.1 kg) “Quick MEDS” canister to front line troops. Professional Usage of Drone Technology at Workplace: The development of Unmanned Aerial Automobiles permitted the world to consider of innovative techniques to implement mutual...

...Best Buy On the Brink Background Best Buy and Circuit City were the two major brick and mortar stores where consumers were able to purchase electronics. With the rising technology and E-commerce, Circuit City was not able to adapt to the changing environment and now Best Buy is on the same path as its former competitor. Best Buy had to close down fifty stores and fire over 400 employees due to its poor financial performance. Best Buy CEO Brian Dunn explained that there was no innovation by the company to adapt to the changing market on how consumers were purchasing electronics. Consumers are now price comparing with Best Buy’s products with online retailers. Online competitors of Best Buy are utilizing the new emerging technologies to help make purchasing of products convenient to the consumers. Problem Statement Best Buy is on a slow downward slope towards bankruptcy, if the company does not have any new innovation in the way it sells its products to consumers. Best Buy needs to understand how consumers are purchasing electronics and restructure how its employees are interacting with customers. Amazon is taking advantage of being an online retailer which means that Best Buy has to take advantage of their physical locations. Alternative Solutions One of the strategies Best Buy can implement is to offer a price match guarantee to the customers if they can find a lower price than Best Buy’s products then Best Buy will match the price. This strategy will attract more customers...

...Influences of emerging technology The impact of new and emerging technology on the global scale depends very much on the same factors that influence local acceptance and uptake. There are countries with different levels of industrialisation, technology infrastructure and wealth. Also political cultural and economic forces in present help various technologies succeed in some area and hinders them in others. If there is a rise in acceptance in technology it could create manufacturing opportunities. China with its huge population combined with political and cultural change has become the favoured location for many manufacturing industries. Countries with strong economic growth and population and a good disposable income are very accepting to the rapid uptake of technology. At the moment there is an enormous growth in information and communication fields. This has created a significant social change. (p167) Copy paragraph p168. Emerging technologies often result from an unorthodox combination of existing entities. The focus of these new technologies lies in the areas of: * Group collaboration on tasks * Next generation internet architecture that facilitates smoother communication * Real-world web services It is the norm to have multidisciplinary teams from around the globe working on one project. Collaboration tools * Podcasts * Peer to peer voice over IP * Desktop search * wikis Research of the new technologies p 170-171 Factors...

...Living in the Information Age SOS-110-OL009 January 2015 There are many trends emerging today that will have an impact on our future. No one knows exactly what the future will bring, we as humans are only capable of making predictions. One of the most prominent areas seen affected by emerging trends in the past and present is the healthcare field. Various aspects of healthcare will continue to grow and shape our future including: the nursing workforce, innovative medical technology, etc. As healthcare needs continue rise and the population ages, I believe a shortage in nursing may be imminent based on these subsequent rationales that are discussed. On March 23, 2010 the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) was signed into law. Lanthrop and Hodnicki stated in their article, “It is the most expansive healthcare reform legislation in the United States (US) since the creation of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965” (Lathrop, 2014). The healthcare reform was put into legislation to decrease the number of uninsured Americans by providing accessible, affordable, quality healthcare. In 2011, it was predicted that the number of Americans uninsured would be reduced by more than half when the Act is fully implemented (Rosenbaum, 2011). “The law will result in health insurance coverage for about 94% of the American population, reducing the uninsured by 31 million people” (Rosenbaum, 2011). With the expanded access to health insurance provided by this law, more and more people...

...Intel® Technology Journal | Volume 18, Issue 4, 2014 HETERogEnEoUs FAcE REcognITIon: An EmERgIng TopIc In BIomETRIcs Contributor Guodong Guo West Virginia University An emerging topic in biometrics is matching between heterogeneous image modalities, called heterogeneous face recognition (HFR). This emerging topic is motivated by the advances in sensor technology development that make it possible to acquire face images from diverse imaging sensors, such as the near infrared (NIR), thermal infrared (IR), and three-dimensional (3D) depth cameras. It is also motivated by the demand from real applications. For example, when a subject’s face can only be acquired at night, the NIR or IR imaging might be the only modality for acquiring a useful face image of the subject. Another example is that no imaging system was available to capture the face image of a suspect during a criminal act. In this case a forensic sketch, drawn by a police artist based on a verbal description provided by a witness or the victim, is likely to be the only available source of a face of the suspect. Using the sketch to search a large database of mug-shot face photos is also a heterogeneous face recognition problem. Thus it is interesting to study the HFR as a relatively new topic in biometrics. In this article, several specific HFR problems are presented, and various approaches are described to address the heterogeneous face matching problems. Some future research directions are discussed as well to advance...

...Introduction Emerging Markets Most of the Developing countries are known as the emerging markets. They are driving the global economy. Investing in emerging markets is a wise decision as the growth can be witnessed and also have better return on investment for future. It is anticipated that Emerging economies will mature two to three times more rapidly than developed nation like the US, as predicted by International Monetary Fund estimates. Corporate profits incline to grow faster when economic growth is higher. Likewise, US companies have done well in the last 12 months is because of their growth in non-US markets. Emerging markets also prove beneficial to investors as they create diversification as they act differently than developed markets. Emerging Markets Index of Morgan Stanley's consists of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, Egypt, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Israel, Jordan, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, and Turkey (Forbes). Russia is one of the booming emerging markets in the East. However, Russia is not always an investor favorite as it is a booming market in global oil and gas demand. Russia has tons of both. It is the world's prominent natural gas producer and exporter and has the 8th largest oil reserves in the world. Russia is considered as a bargain for equity, but that is mostly due to country risk. (Forbes) During the recession in 2008, world markets in developed countries crashed but the emerging markets saved the global...

...Date: October 25th, 2014 Memo to: Toyota Motor Corporation Subject: Executive Strategy & Assessment Executive Summary: Situation Since created Toyota Motor Corporation has focused on innovation and efficiency within its production or manufacturing facilities, and has built its success around this core competency. Recently however many of their competitors have adopted similar practices and have been able to narrow this gap significantly. For this reason these competitors are posing much more of a threat and Toyota may need to change or adjust its current strategy to deal with this problem. These competitors are also investing heavily in the emerging markets Toyota is currently trying to capitalize on. Recommendations After assessing the current strategy at Toyota there are a few recommendations I would make to help them succeed going forward. For one they may want to consider focusing less on labour productivity, as this no longer provides them with as much of a competitive advantage. They may also want to consider investing more in the emerging markets like China and Europe, as well as areas in Africa. They are currently a leader in environmentally friendly technology in the industry, and they should put more emphasis on this because it is becoming more and more important. This is also a great way to separate themselves from competitors. Key Evidence Some of the key evidence to support this involves productivity measures and various manufacturing...
