 MODULE GUIDE
In this module, we will continue our exploration in the world of Object-
Oriented Programming (OOP). OOP-based architecture proves to be
beneficial especially when dealing with special types of data which need to
be packaged into one entity. What would you do if you have so much
capability at your hand? Of course, you will use it. This ideology will be
covered in this module together with the principles that surround OOP. Hard
might it be at first, however their important role in OOP’s implementation
will be eviden

In this module, we will be discussing and learning what are the emerging technologies
that we might want to consider to build in application development in the future. Understanding
how and why are these technologies develop and how are this technology helps the community.
Most of all what it means for application development.

Intended Learning Outcome:

I. Define what are the emerging technologies.

Introduction

Application development is the process of designing, building, and implementing software

applications. It can be done by massive organizations with large teams working on projects, or by a
single freelance developer. Application development defines the process of how the application is
made, and generally follows a standard methodology.

Emerging technology is a term generally used to describe a new technology, but it may
also refer to the continuing development of an existing technology; it can have slightly different
meaning when used in different areas, such as media, business, science, or education. The term
commonly refers to technologies that are currently developing, or that are expected to be
available within the next five to ten years, and is usually reserved for technologies that are
creating, or are expected to create, significant social or economic effects.

Discussion:

In this course, we will understand and learn the following:

1. What are the Emerging Technologies that you need to know about.
2. Lists of Trends of Emerging Technologies.

9 Emerging Technologies That You Need To Know About

Take a look at the newest emerging technologies that are making the biggest splash in
custom application development.
Technology continues to advance every day, and as a result, new industries are being
created and are impacting every industry in significant ways. Whether you’re the CEO, a manager,
an employee, or an aspiring entrepreneur, educating yourself on these new emerging
technologies can lead to new advancements in your own business. For virtually every business,
staying on top of emerging technologies is key when trying to deliver custom software solutions
that meet your customer’s exact needs. Here’s a list of the top 9 emerging technologies you need
to know about and a quick overview of their implications for application development.

2. Automation Automation is a method to control or

operate a process, system, or device without
continuous human involvement.
What it means for application development:
Automation can be used to mimic previously
human-exclusive tasks like writing, speech,
and driving. Common applications include
standardized graphic design work,
agriculture, journalism, and marketing.

3. Robotization What it means for application development:

Robotics applications are making a huge
impact in a wide variety of industries. In the
agriculture industry farmers have paired
with developers to program robots to
eliminate weeds without having to use
harmful herbicides on the crops. They can
also be used to fertilize and even harvest
crops.

Robotization is automating tasks using a

machine that can perform complex and/or
repetitive tasks automatically or one that is
controlled by software programs.

Real-Time Language Translators

SLSU-CCSIT Main Campus

So, what is real-time translation?
(RTT) Real-time translation technology is what it sounds like. It is basically a tech-driven
solution that directly translates content from one language to another language. Anyone is able to
use RTT for getting a "gist" of translation—making quick fact checks and cobble together
communication with someone who talks in a different language.

language. Today, they are learning to translate those words into other languages.

Below is the list of existing hardware adjacent to real-time translation:

1: Google’s Pixel Bud earbuds work with Android devices which translate between up to
40 languages (Google also offers Google Translate and Word Lens, which translates words
in photographs)

Home Automation

What is home automation?

Home automation gives you access to control devices in your home from a mobile device
anywhere in the world. The term may be used for isolated programmable devices,

in which nearly everything — lights, appliances, electrical outlets, heating and cooling systems —
are hooked up to a remotely controllable network. From a home security perspective, this also

Natural-Language Processing
What is natural language processing?
Natural language processing (NLP) refers to the branch of computer science—and more
specifically, the branch of artificial intelligence or AI—concerned with giving computers the
ability to understand text and spoken words in much the same way human beings can.

SLSU-CCSIT Main Campus

 NLP combines computational linguistics—rule-based modeling of human language—with
statistical, machine learning, and deep learning models. Together, these technologies enable
computers to process human language in the form of text or voice data and to ‘understand’ its full
meaning, complete with the speaker or writer’s intent and sentiment.
