An Overview of Trends in Information Systems: Emerging Technologies that Transform the Information Technology Industry

Abstract

Technology is mainly characterized by being changed rapidly. In other words, it is recognized as the ever-changing playing field. Those who aim to stay in the technology field need to quickly get adapted to such constant changes in this field. Due to the high pace of information technology advances, it is required to identify and implement appropriate technologies by which the organizations can effectively stay and compete in the business through the accurate and real-time efficiency delivered by such technologies as cloud computing, internet of things (IoT), artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data analytics, virtual and augmented reality, 5g network, and, etc. These trends are critically important because turning and adapting to the latest trends in information technology and systems are largely contributing to meeting the consumers' technology-enabled demands. In this paper, the most widely used trends in information systems and technology will be discussed.

Enhancing Social Media Platforms with Machine Learning Algorithms and Neural Networks

“…AI is a subfield of computer science that incorporates a wide range of computational operations, from algorithmic production to machine learning and deep learning methods [29]. Traditional AI problem-solving methods are based on if-then rules, whereas machine learning and deep learning seek to iteratively evolve comprehension of a data set without explicitly coding any rules [30,31]. This permits the computing system on which they are implemented to automatically acquire knowledge and develop predictions beginning with a set of input data, adjusting the parameters by optimizing the performance standard defined on the data and decreasing the error rate at every phase of the learning process [32].…”

Navigating the Ethical and Privacy Concerns of Big Data and Machine Learning in Decision Making

“…In the age of digital transformation, organizations recognize the value and significance of making the right decisions at the right time, which is only possible by relying on the relevant and timely accessibility of information and data that are processed as a component of the decision-making process [27] . The process of making choices is supported at all organizational levels by data that can be meaningfully processed [28] . The sequence of visualizing, processing, and accumulating big data can assist an organization's management function in making informed decisions regarding the operations and approach of the organization.…”

The Influence of Internet of Things (IoT) on Operational Efficiency and Competitive Advantage in the Information Technology Industry in Indonesia

“…The IT industry has witnessed significant changes throughout its history, with different countries coming to the forefront at different periods [4]. Additionally, the industry has seen a mixture of persistence and change, with computing machines transitioning from mainframes to smartphones, the growing role of software and services, and the shift in IT-hardware production from West to East [5].…”
