globalization techy Flashcards
- the application of scientific knowledge for
practical purposes, especially in industry. It involves machinery
and equipment developed from scientific knowledge and the
branch of knowledge dealing with engineering or applied
sciences.
Technology
the process by which new technological
advancements become widely adopted across society and
integrated into the economic landscape.
Technology Diffusion
the use of advanced digital and communication tools that enable
the seamless integration and interconnection of economies,
cultures, and societies across borders.
Globalization of Technology
represents a transformative shift
in how we live, work, and interact, merging the physical, digital,
and biological worlds.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution
is the spread of innovations across
societies and is closely linked to globalization, which enhances
interconnectedness through trade, communication, and cultural
exchange.
Technological diffusion
this concept identifies the
process by which an innovation gains acceptance and is adopted
by different segments of society.
The Law of Diffusion of Innovations (DOI) theory developed by
sociologist Everett Rogers in 1962
The theory categorizes adopters
into five groups: IEELL
Innovators, Early Adopters, Early Majority, Late
Majority, and Laggards.
These people are very willing to take risks and want to be the first to try the innovation
Innovators ,Techies
These people adopt new ideas after seeing evidence that the innovation works
Early Majority, Pragmatists
The second to last segment of a population to adopt innovative technology as it diffuses through a society.
Late Majority, Conservatives
These people are already aware of the need to change and are very comfortable in adopting new ideas
Early Adopters, Visionaries
The last to adopt a new product or service. They resent change and may continue to rely on traditional products until they are no longer available
Laggards, Skeptics
The emergence of the —- makes
human-computer interaction speedier and more reliable,
making it possible to manage very important services such
as transportation, healthcare, and security.
Internet of Things (IOT)
have
become more prevalent, with more
people being able to avail of their
own private vehicles. Some countries
were also able to establish reliable
and efficient public transportation
system.
Transportation technologies
has also become more
dependable in recent years, allowing more
and more people to travel long distances
at a cheaper rate than in the past.
Aviation technology
There
are four major developments in aviation
technology, according to Martin (2018):
a)
digital twin, which is a digital and virtual
replica of the physical aircraft engine
which enables efficient monitoring of the
aircraft;
(b) use of artificial intelligence
(Al) for predictive maintenance, i.e.,
predicting possible issues that may arise
in the aircraft;
(c) use of mobile computing
in aviation; and
(d) use of drones in aircraft
maintenance procedure
as an impact of the recent
clamor to address ecological
breakdown.

New business models have also
emerged in recent years.
Entrepreneurs bring in their
businesses into the electronic world,
thus, the birth of

Since the first wave of space explorations in
the 1960s, much has changed in our space
technologies, as nation-states invest in
research and development on this issue.
National Aeronautics and Space
Administration
(NASA, 2018), the US agency
responsible for space explorations, revealed
that, in succeeding years, there will be
attempts and efforts to:
(a) know the
possibility of life in Mars, (b) get closer to the
Sun,
(c) explore Jupiter’s moon,
(d) send
humans deeper into space, and
(e) test and
develop more advanced space navigation
instruments
is a branch
of computer science that aims to
create machines and software capable
of performing tasks that usually
require human intelligence, such as
problem-solving, learning, and
language processing
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
A —is a machine designed to perform
tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously,
often mimicking human or animal actions
robot
is the science and
engineering of manipulating matter at the
atomic and molecular scale, typically
within the range of 1 to 100 nanometers, to
create materials with unique properties
Nanotechnology
a multidimensional, pluralistic, and
crosscutting concept referring to the way we live
our everyday, as well as the factors influencing
this process (choice, individual and group
processes, etc.)
