Research clearly shows that highly engaged employees are good for business. Employees who feel connected to their employer are more productive, generate more revenues, and help the company thrive.

But did you know that IT can contribute to this success? According to new research from IDC, companies that develop a strong relationship between IT and the lines of business can measurably increase corporate performance.

IDC compared two types of enterprises: those where IT proactively worked with the business and those that did not cultivate a close relationship. Over three years, the companies with the strong IT-business connection achieved:

• 90 percent greater growth in revenue from new product lines

• 80 percent greater growth in revenue from established product lines

• 50 percent greater improvement in compliance-related activities

How Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming App development

Internet of things (IoT) is a network of devices or objects which contain embedded technology that enables those devices and objects to communicate and interact with each other. The connectivity does not need any particular place, be it home or workplace. 

The devices include any smart gadgets or any other devices that are connected to the web or another device in some way and can be accessed and controlled from any location. IoT is becoming increasingly popular because of the tranquility of use and convenience it offers. There is a subsequent demand in apps (application) for such devices.

Following are some of the ways that IoT is impacting the mobile app development process:

Process initiation: The process initiation for IoT is not any set of pre-defined fundamentals. Most of the mobile app developers have no clear idea about where to start with the IoT, and because of its expensiveness, they don’t take any risk with any amount of money. But IoT technology is only a collection of several components that are combined to provide collective output.

Connectivity problem: One of the most essential things IoT needs is connectivity among the devices with the internet and also with other smart devices. IoT devices cannot be connected through the mobile cellular services as Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) or Bluetooth. The developers should resolve the connectivity issue with the ‘smart-things’. This refers that IoT applications require an upgraded integration gateway or standalone device as the modem.

Blockchain: The Driving Force of Multiple Industries

Blockchain and bitcoin are interlinked, and blockchain has a multitude of other functions and uses. Sustainability is the ability to drive business process efficiently and transparently across industries which translates to better use of resources that creates value. In this context, blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLT) are one of the most powerful drivers for sustainability.

Blockchain can track the goods and services across the landscape in an automated fashion which allows data to be exchanged seamlessly. Traditional inconsistencies can be avoided with blockchain technologies. The whole process from fundamental issues to money laundering becomes 100 percent transparent and trackable.

Know these to get started with Python.

Python as a first language: a roadmap to getting started.

I personally prefer Java as a first language. Put non-technically, it is a lot less convenient, so you get a more realistic idea of how computers work. Nonetheless, Python is an amazing language (with convenience as one of it’s values) so it makes sense as a gentle introduction. It’s also a popular language for data science and machine learning, so it’s great to have experience with.

The 3 ingredients you need to get started:

The Python Language Interpreter: when you write some code in a text file and save it as a .py file, the Python interpreter is what turns that code into commands that your computer can then actually preform. This is necessary.

An Integrated Development Environment (IDE): An IDE is like a helpful text editor for programming. Some basic features include auto-complete, typo and mistake catching, and automatic text coloring to make some parts of your code easier to find. This is optional but highly recommended.

Some learning resources: We’re going to need something about programming basics, problem solving in computer science, using an API, learning how to use google and stackexchange, data types, control structures, and then maybe an object-oriented programming intro, and eventually all the neat advanced features of the python language. Then we need to learn how to use Numpy (for scientific computing), Pandas (for easy data storage), and Tensorflow (machine learning!). Add some handy cheat-sheets for python, numpy, pandas, and Tensorflow, and we’re good to go.

Other posts will adress download, installation, and resources.

A curriculum:

Like I said up above, we need to know how to do the following. Save this and make it a checklist.

Learn to use google to answer questions about installing or using python, any packages, or computer science.

This also includes getting to know how to search Stackexchange, the website for coding questions n’ stuff.

How to install python 3 and get set up

How to install an IDE like Eclipse (with PyDev), IDLE, or Notebook++.

Programming basics: how does python work? What does the language look like? How does tabbing work?

Understand basic logic, including AND, OR, XOR, NOR, NAND, XNOR, Implies, and If…Else statements.

Variables: what are they, how do I set one and change it?

Basic math in Python.

Data types: what kinds of variables can I have? How does my computer store data? How do I use those types of data? What are the key commands and operations I know how to do?

Control structures: if, else, elif, for loops, while loops, break, continue

Methods! What are they, how do I make one, what can I do with it?

The open() command, the all() command, other neat built-in methods

<function name>= lambda <your variables>: <single line method>

Problem solving in computer science: now do fizbuzz.

What’s a package?

Importing packages, installing packages you don’t have with PIP

Using an API: how do I find one and how do I read it?

object-oriented programming in Python: what’s a class, how do I make one, how do I reference and instantiate one, methods, class vars, etc

Error handling: how to do exceptions

All the neat advanced features of the python language: iterators, generators, list comprehensions, enumerate, range, assert, with…as, etc.

Read through the Numpy API (for scientific computing), data types, matrices, stats, methods, etc. A short detour through scikit would be helpful.

Read through Matplotlib.pyplot API, plotting, plotting options, histograms, scatterplots, etc.

Pandas (for easy data storage), data frames, series, built-in operations on columns and rows, loading from a CSV, saving as a csv, apply, etc

Tensorflow (machine learning!) For basic stuff, shoot for knowing how to use the estimator package, which is discussed elsewhere on this blog. Also get to know the nitty gritty, including tensors, layers, tensorboard, etc.

The changing lifestyle of modern-age customers creates significant impacts on banking requirements and encourages banking service providers to optimize their offerings digitally. With the dynamic growth of customer finance and banking needs in various sectors, the digital-age CIOs opt for advanced mobile banking applications.

 Mobile banking applications have experienced rapid adoptions in recent years. Today, mobile banking applications and interfaces have become the primary focus of banking service and product providers, as the banking innovation proves to bring massive digital transformation in banking operations. Modern banking applications offer benefits, from simplifying end-to-end banking processes to embedding banking products and services, which attract CIOs of banking institutions to invest in mobile applications.
