Three Revolutionary Technologies
You need to know, right NOW!
As technology is evolving day by day and need of learning becomes first priority for all, whether a CEO, a manager, an employee, or an aspiring entrepreneur. Learning emerging technologies that revolutionize the work and can lead to new advancements.
Emerging Technologies like 5G, IoT, AI and Cloud Computing are heavily covered in our Forum, Some links for your reference are given at the end of the article for as a refresher as well.
Today, I am going to share some latest emerging technologies in simple words with its use cases as they are next big thing. Let’s get started.
1. Natural-language processing
NLP is an amalgamation of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence. It is concerned with the interactions between computers and human language.

Working
Analyzation and understanding of context of human language, it is separated into fragments so that the grammatical structure of sentences and the meaning of words in NLP.
This helps computers read and understand spoken or written text in the same way as humans
Use Cases
Some of common use cases of NLP
· Text-to-speech
· Image-to-Text conversion
· Text Classification (Topic sorting, Sentiment analysis & Detection of intent)
2. Block Chain
Fundamentally, BlockChain is a digital ledger of transactions that is duplicated and distributed across the entire network so in simple words “BlockChain provides a mechanism / system of recording information so it cannot be hacked, or changed”.

Working
A blockchain is a decentralized & distributed architecture. All records that are linked together in form of BLOCK using cryptography contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data.
· Every transaction is recorded as soon as it occurs in a “block” of data
· Each block is connected to the ones before and after it
· Transactions are blocked together in an irreversible chain: a blockchain

Use Cases
Blockchain technology can is being used into multiple areas, Some of common use cases are
- Cryptocurrencies
- FinTech
- Supply Chain
3. Quantum Computing
Complex problems of modern world that even super computer can't (or take a lot of time to) solve but quantum computer have the power to solve using phenomena of quantum mechanics to deliver enormous computational power to solve problems.
As current traditional computer (or Super Computer) aren’t very effective in solving certain types of problems like multi-dimension, fuzzy logic (randomness), high-speed mathematical and logical operation.
Working
The quantum computer follows the laws of quantum mechanics and process information using quantum bits, called qubits (pronounce as CUE-BIT), typically subatomic particles such as electrons or photons. Unlike traditional computer that uses “Bit” which has only two possible conditions (0 and 1) on the other end, Pbit shows probability of occurring.

Superposition
A Qubit can represent numerous possible combinations of 1 and 0 at the same time. This ability to simultaneously be in multiple states is called Superposition.

Entanglement
The two members of a pair exist in a single quantum state. Changing the state of one of the qubits will instantaneously change the state of the other one in a predictable way even if both are separated apart.

By use of quantum mechanical principles such as superposition and entanglement, quantum computers enable solving certain computational tasks exponentially faster than classical computers
Use Cases
Quantum Computing’s influence can be seen in many areas including
· data search
· artificial intelligence (AI)
· chemistry simulation
· biopharmaceutics.
Ending Remark
All these technologies described above are going to change word and need of learning is inevitable for us to be successful.
HUAWEI CLOUD also provides services for large-scale quantum with high-performance of circuit simulation
