Evolution of Technologies
Brainstorming
I. Define emerging technologies in your own terms?
Emerging technology:- is a term generally used to describe a new technology.
 It may also refer to the continuing development of existing technology however
it can be have slightly different meanings when used in different areas, such as
media, business, science, or education.
Commonly it refers to technologies that are currently developing, or that are
expected to be available within the next five to ten years.

 What is the root word of technology and evolution?
• Technology: 1610s, "discourse or treatise on an art or the arts," from Greek
tekhnologia "systematic treatment of an art, craft, or technique," originally
referring to grammar, from tekhno- (see techno-) + -logy.
• The meaning "science of the mechanical and industrial arts" is first recorded in
1859.
• Evolution: evolution means the process of developing by gradual changes. from
Latin evolutio, "an unrolling or opening," combined from the prefix e-, "out," plus
volvere, "to roll."

Industrial Revolution (IR)
• It was a period of major industrilazation and innovation that took place during
the late 1700s and early 1800s.
• Industrial – Having to do with industry, business or manufacturing
• Revolution – a huge change or a change in the way things are done
• Industrial Revolution – a change from making things by hand to making them in
factories. or fundamental change in the way goods were produced, from human
labor to machines.
6
Industrial Revolution (IR)
 IR was a fundamental change in the way goods were produced, from human labor to machines.
 Machines were invented which replaced human labor.
 New energy sources were developed to power the new machinery – water, steam, electricity, oil
(gas, kerosene).
 Increased use of metals and minerals. such as, Aluminum, coal, copper, iron, etc.
 Transportation improved
 Ships
Wooden ships → Iron ships → Steel ships ,
Wind-powered sails → Steam-powered boilers
 Trains
Automobiles 7

 Communication improved
 Telegraph
 Telephone
 Radio
 An Industrial Revolution at its core occurs when a society shifts from using tools
to make products to use new sources of energy, such as coal, to power machines
in factories.
 The revolution started in England (Birthplace of the Industrial Revolution), with
a series of innovations to make labor more efficient and productive.

 Generally, the following industrial revolutions fundamentally changed and
transfer the world around us into modern society.
 The steam engine,
 The age of science and mass production, and
 The rise of digital technology
 Smart and autonomous systems fueled by data and machine learning.
10
Historical Background (IR 1.0, IR 2.0, IR 3.0)
 Industrial revolution began in Great Britain (England) in the late 1770s then it
expands to Belgium, France, and the German states.
 The final cause of the Industrial Revolution was the effects created by the
Agricultural Revolution due to an increase in food production, which was the
key outcome of the Agricultural Revolution.
11

 The four types of industries are:

 The primary industry involves getting raw materials e.g. mining, farming, and
fishing.
 The secondary industry involves manufacturing e.g. making cars and steel.
 The Tertiary industries provide a service e.g. teaching and nursing.
 The quaternary industry involves research and development industries e.g. IT.
12
Industrial Revolution (IR 1.0)
• IR is described as a transition to new

manufacturing processes.
• The first IR included going from hand
production methods to machines, the
increasing use of steam power.
13
 Known as the Technological

Revolution, began somewhere in the
1870s.
 New technological systems were
introduced, such as electrical power
and telephones.
14
 The transition from mechanical and analog electronic technology to digital

electronics which began from the late 1950s.
 Due to the shift towards digitalization, IR 3.0 was given the nickname, “Digital
Revolution”. The mass production and widespread use of digital logic circuits and
its derived technologies such as the computer, handphones and the Internet.
15
Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0)
 Advancements in various technologies such as robotics, Internet of Things

(IoT),additive manufacturing and autonomous vehicles.
 Coined by Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of World
Economic Forum, in the year 2016.
 A cyber-physical system is a mechanism that is controlled or monitored by
computer-based algorithms, tightly integrated with the Internet and its users.
 Example, usage of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines which is
operated by giving it instructions using a computer and the adoption of Artificial
Intelligence (AI).

Role of Data for Emerging Technologies
• Data is regarded as the new oil and strategic asset since we are living in the age
of big data, and drives or even determines the future of science, technology, the
economy, and possibly everything in our world today and tomorrow.
Assignment
1. Briefly discuss what is Data, Information and Big Data?
2. List out some programmable devices and explain their property?
19
Enabling devices and network (Programmable devices)
 The network is a collection of computers, servers, mainframes, network devices,

peripherals, or other devices connected to one another to allow the sharing of data.
 An example of a network is the Internet, which connects millions of people all over
the world.
 Programmable devices usually refer to chips that incorporate field programmable
logic devices (FPGAs), complex programmable logic devices (CPLD) and
programmable logic devices (PLD).
 There are also devices that are the analog equivalent of these called field
programmable analog arrays.

 Traditional channel service unit (CSU) and data service unit (DSU)
 Modems
 Routers
 Switches
 Conferencing equipment
 Network appliances (NIDs and SIDs)
 Hosting equipment and servers 22
Human to Machine Interaction
• It refers to the communication and interaction between a human and a machine via a
user interface.
• It is also the study of how people interact with computers and to what extent
computers are or are not developed for successful interaction with human beings.
• The goal of HCI is to improve the interaction between users and computers by
making computers more user-friendly and receptive to the user's needs.
23
Disciplines Contributing to Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)
 Cognitive psychology:- Limitations, information processing, performance prediction,

cooperative working and capabilities
 Computer science:- Including graphics, technology, prototyping tools, user interface
management systems.
 Linguistics:- Including natural language interfaces
 Engineering and design:- Engineering principles and Graphic design
 Artificial intelligence:- Intelligent software
 Human factors:- Display readability and Hardware design
