Emerging Application of Technology

Instructions
Format your deliverable as a “descriptive or informative” annotated bibliography.
In addition to the list of sources and annotations, you must provide an introductory paragraph.
See the rubric for additional requirements for this assignment.
Choose an Emerging Application of Technology
To begin, choose an emerging application of technology, which is suitable for future use in a consumer-oriented product or service (i.e. a new product for personal or home use) or a business-oriented product or service. Applications of technology that are currently in the emerging stages include:
Machine Learning and/or Artificial Intelligence
Data Science (especially when used to identify patterns and indicators of threats and attacks)
Blockchain Technology
5G Telecommunications Networks
Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) (devices & electrical circuits)
Graphene
Nano machines
Neuromorphic computer chips
You are encouraged to look for and investigate additional appropriate technologies before deciding upon your technology choice for this assignment.
If you decide to research a technology that is not on the suggested technologies list (see above), you must first request and receive your instructor’s permission. Your instructor may require that you do preliminary library searches for research papers and technical papers to prove that you can find a sufficient number of resources to complete the assignment.
Find Appropriate Sources (“Survey the Literature”)
Brainstorm keywords that you can use to help find articles, papers, and other scholarly publications (“sources’) which discuss your chosen emerging application of technology.
Your selected sources must come from publications indexed in one or more of the following library databases:
ACM Digital Library
Dissertations & Theses (Pro Quest)
IEEE Computer Society Digital Library
Science Direct
Since the point of this search is to find information about emerging applications of technology, your sources must have a publication date of 2017 or later (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021). For papers indexed in Science Direct, you may also use papers that are marked “In Press.”
