...| Paradigm Shift | GS1140 Problem Solving | | Jordan Everett | | | Cameras 20 year from now will beyond amazing. In my eyes the camera will evolve into something the eye can barely see. The camera today has many shapes and sizes. Some are very small and some are very big. The camera 20 years from now you will need one camera to do everything you will ever need a camera to do. You will be able to go from taking family pictures in the back yard to filming a motion picture movie all with one camera. The camera will come in different items for example a mouth camera, a watch camera, and an eye camera. The mouth camera will do everything you need it to do. It will be voice activated and have endless amount of storage for anything and everything you want to save. The camera will also be unbreakable and waterproof for those who are very adventurous. It will have a peppermint like taste in your mouth so your breath won’t go bad after having it in for a while. The camera will be so small that it would be able to fit in the spaces between your teeth and it will be white so the people really won’t be able to see it. When you are done with it all you have to do is slide it out. The watch camera will be the most obvious camera but you won’t see the camera at all. This camera will also be waterproof and unbreakable. You would also have your choice of the watch you would like this camera to be on. With this camera you would have to tell it what pictures you are looking...

...9/22/2015 “Paradigm Shift” The technology that I believe will change in the next 20 years is the cellular phone. This technology has already undergone major changes in the last 5-10 years with the induction of the “smart phone”. With this device, users are able to not only make phone calls, but they are able to do a number of things to include web browsing and banking functions. One change will be the hand-held model. I believe with new technology, phone calls will be made via hands-free devices. The aforementioned will eliminate the need to walk around with a physical phone in your hand, pocket, etc. iWatches and wireless devices have already begun to serve as alternatives to traditional hand-held phones. Another change on the horizon of cellular phones is the camera feature. This feature allows us to take pictures and face-to-face chat through FaceTime and other similar applications. As mentioned above, this can be done with a watch or similar wristband type device; eliminating the need to physically hold the phone. One would simply be able to hold up their wrist device and point it at their face and see the other person’s face on the display. Lastly, I think devices will become smaller and not larger. The iPhone and Samsung Galaxy phones have seemingly gotten larger. This has mainly been due to the social media accessibility and gives customers more screen size to manage more applications simultaneously. As technology evolves, I believe...

...Toulouse by 719. This advancement, however, was stopped from central France in 732 by the Christians. The recapture of the Toledo by the Christians made Europe Muslim a special place of interest for what they had accomplished. Umayyad dynasty overthrew the Caliphate immediately after the civil war in Syria and Iraq, and replaced it with Abbasids dynasty. This caused a shift in the centre of power from Syria to Iraq marked by the foundation of the imperial capital of Baghdad in 762. In an attempt by the Abbasids members of the Umayyad, Abdu al-Rah man escaped into Andalusia and became ruler of Cordoba, its capital. A lot upgraded during this dynasty rule including social security, Muslims were the majority in the military. Much remembered during the period of the civil war between Syria and Iraq that resulted to a shift in power. They were able to restore peace and a smooth transition in power. Islamic contributed immensely to the growth of Europe that later spread worldwide. These contributions affected varied areas ranging from art, architecture, medicine, agriculture, music, language, education, law, and technology. In education, the madrassah was the first college, mainly teaching Islamic law and theology. Islamic world has had a considerable effect on the development of Western civilization and philosophy. A good example is the notable work of the Greek natural philosopher Aristotle remembered for his rediscovery of ancient classic texts that were translated from Arabic. Also...

...Michael Doe 12/16/2013 Problem Solving Theory Unit 1 Research Paper 1: Paradigm Shift Femto-Photography Introduction There are many cameras today that do generally the same thing, either zooming in or enhancing clarity, but in roughly 20 years’ time they all will still be doing those same simplistic functions. What if I told you about a new in-prototype-development-stages technology called “Femto-Photography” that allows you to capture light at a half of a trillionth of a second [1]. Summary of Key Findings With Femto-Photography it is possible to “see around objects and walls” [1]. Normally when you fire a laser pulse at a wall, nothing crazy happens. But, with Femto-Photography, you’d be able to see that laser pulse hit the wall, propagate, bounce off of any objects within that room, hit said wall from a different point, and detect that there was/were objects or people in the room [1]. In 20 years’ time, this technology could be insanely useful and effective in traffic accident scenarios, emergency rescue situations with firefighters, and the list goes on and on. With Femto-Photography, it is also possible to “see through objects” [1]. In 20 years’ time there could be an enormous amount of possible applications of this use, between checking the ripeness of a fruit without touching it, x-raying a person’s body without the use of radiation, and many other applications, the possibilities are virtually limitless [1]. With Femto-Photography, scientific...

...3:With various forms of thing technology (CCTV, cameras that detect speeders, wired courts, electronic monitoring, supermax prisons, etc.). FOR EXAMPLE why do we need police officers patrolling the streets (and highways) when we have the technological resources (via cameras to detect speeders and red light violations, and CCTV to monitor public places) to remotely monitor activities and deploy a smaller number of police to address crime problems that are detected? The downsizing of police force manpower may be an inevitable consequence of this type of technological innovation, which is one reason that technological change may be viewed suspiciously by line personnel and the unions that represent their interests. Similar scenarios can be...

...Paradigm Shift 20 years ago I never thought I would ever own a cell phone. Cell phones have come a long way, from it being a huge block phone that wouldn’t fit in your pocket and all they were good for was making calls and answering calls. Today the cell phone is smaller and has a lot more features such as text, email, internet, and camera and a lot more. People very rarely used their old phones like they use them today. You can’t go out anymore without seeing someone using their phones, either by texting, making a call or checking or updating their status on a social network. The impact a cell phone has on youth today can be negative. According to Pamela Gardapee “Cell phones allow kids to text quiz answers, take pictures and videos of problem-solving methods for tests and leave voice messages detailing classroom pop quizzes and other events that otherwise would not spread by word of mouth in one day”. Pamela Gardapee also states “Young cell phone users know how to text while driving. They can talk on the phone or text and drive on the streets and highways without regard to the potential danger. Car accidents involving cell phones and youth have increased.” There are positive impacts on cell phones today. Joshua Wade states “Emergency agencies also support the use of mobile phones during an emergency by urging people to add the letters ICE (for "in case of emergency") in front of certain names in their mobile phone directory to designate who should be called in case of an...

...DARE TO DISRUPT!! DARE TO DISRUPT!! Theme: Means to tackle disruptive innovation Name: Prasun Kumar Das PGPM Participant, Batch 1114 Information Management S. P. Jain Institute of Management & Research Mobile - +91 7506793925 DISRUPTION – The New Age Competitive Strategy Everything is fair in love and war; and competition in a business environment is like a cold war. Innovation has always been the major strategy used by businesses around the world to stay competitive. The traditional paradigm of innovation was to improve the performance of the existing technology, thereby steeping up the performance trajectory. However, value creation for customers may be much simpler than high performing technology. There is always a threshold level till which customers can absorb and appreciate which the traditional paradigm fails to address. This has lead to a gradual shift in paradigm, over the last five decades, from a continuous performance improvement to that of something called ‘Disruption’. Clayton Christensen coined this term and today it has become a big buzzword. He identified ‘Disruptive Innovation’ as a product or service, so compelling in nature that everyone rapidly abandons their current way of doing things to this new approach. IT has been the big enabler of this disruption. The fundamental aspect of disruption is to use the right benchmark, which becomes additive with time. When that happens, we find entire product lines – even the whole market...

From the abacus which made teaching math easy millennia back, to word processor which changed the way research paper are being written and presented. The technological progress of humans has a positive impact on education. Technological change has given shape to education from the very beginning, but with the addition of digital revolution it has popularly increased the speed at which education is transforming. From the past 20 years, there have been changes in technological education that few people ever dreamed. . Many colleges and universities have started offering distance learning programs before the discovery of internet where these programs were difficult to find at that time. Due to this reason, many people who lived in villages and towns lack access to these universities and colleges. There is no doubt that technology has greatly involved in our daily lives and mainly when we are talking about education field. There is almost no escaping from the fact which is produced by the researchers. Education has been widely affected by the integration of technologies as it is a fast way to reach mass number of students. Literature Review – There are basically three main theoretical frameworks presented in the educational technology literature which are Behaviorism, Constructivism and Cognitivism. These frameworks were...

...For many years, Samsung's fondest hope was to emulate the success of Sony. Today, they have eclipsed--by a significant margin--the struggling Japanese firm. Sony's brand is valued at a "mere" $9 billion, or #40 on Interbrand's list. So how did Samsung achieve this remarkable global marketing feat? I'm glad you asked. These from the highlight reel: 1. Hired the right people. Principally the aforementioned Eric Kim. He was the right guy at the right time: Korean-born, US educated (a Harvard MBA, but don't hold that against him) and experienced in the technology sector (CEO of Pilot Software before Samsung scooped him up). Chairman Kun Hee Lee gave him the clout, the money and the opportunity to remake Samsung as a global business leader. Like all great marketers, Kim could also sell on the inside of the organization itself. 2. Championed Digital Product Innovation. They bet the company on digital technology in the late 1990s. A prescient move, as we can now see. They have had a dazzling array of products across an incredible range: big-screen TVs, cell phones, flash memory, LCD displays, MP3 players, DRAM chips, DVD players, microwave ovens. It's really difficult to get successful new products to market, but Samsung figured it out--great quality and award-winning design. But wait there's...

...IT for Sports Management Introduction This article will address the topic of information technology for sports management and will attempt to provide an overview of how information technology (called IT) is changing the nature of management practices in sport. The discussion of IT applications in the profession can be done in a few broad areas: 1st How the tools of today's "technological revolution" can be applied to the administration of sport. 2nd How developments such as the Internet and world wide web help in specific management functions such as training and marketing 3rd How e-commerce can make participation in sports more available through lower priced equipment and lastly, 4th The digital divide: and underlying condition that keeps some from participating fully in the benefits in the IT revolution. The Technological Revolution We are living in the midst of one of those very unusual occurrences that come along once every few generations: a society wide paradigm shift. The close of the last millennium has seen a fundamental change that is moving society the age of industry to the age of information. The currency in this new society that is being formed is information and the medium of exchange is called IT (and sometimes computer technology - CT). IT is simply the tools and methods used for the identification, organization and manipulation of facts that we call data. IT has become the engine that is driving all sectors of today's economy be it industry, government...

His heart rate may exceed 180 beats per minute and his blood pressure could rise by half. With soaring temperatures inside the cramped cockpit he will also dehydrate, typically losing 2–3 litres of water during the race. Yet the driver must concentrate well enough to achieve lap times that might vary by just a tenth of a second. This is tough, on both mind and body. Hence it is not just the performance of the car itself which an array of sensors keeps an eye on, wirelessly transmitting data about the engine, suspension and so on to the pit crews.
