Information and Communications Technologies – Key Trends

Augmented reality is expected to evolve from a simple branding and marketing solution into technologically

comprehensive solution catering to applications in retail (warehouse management), defense (augmented training),

education (augmented books), and manufacturing (augmented assembly line).

Context-aware computing would help realize hyper-personalization services in advertising. The technology helps brands

in delivering more targeted advertisements to customers. The granular awareness about end users could be leveraged

to provide access to services that are tailored to suit specific customer requirements at a particular time and location.

Wireless systems in conjunction with context aware devices could help in locating a person and delivering specific

content. This could help in developing new business models and allow users to take informed decisions.

The explosive growth of social media and integration of online businesses in social media platforms has mandated the

creation of systems which would allow secure business transactions through social networks. The social media based

cyber security is expected to converge with Big Data platforms to provide analytics based threat prevention. Security

majors are trying to develop analytics based social media security engines which could easily prevent future threats

based on social behavior and online presence.

The major focus of business analytics application development is towards addressing specific needs of particular

industries through convergence of technologies across industries. Data Management leveraging Cloud Computing

technology is the primary focus of researchers in the storage space for analytics. Velocity to deliver information is one of

the key objectives against which R&D is geared towards for providing real-time data processing for faster analytics.
