History: Python has been around for more than 28 years. It’s an interpreted, high-level, general-purpose programming language. Even though it is one of the oldest programming languages, It hasn’t been particularly popular amongst the developer communities until recently. Why wasn’t it popular? The singular factor behind its “Non Popularity” has been its speed. Ask any student/beginner to choose between Python and ‘Java or C’, nine out of ten students will choose the later due to the speed factor & their theoretical knowledge. The difference in speed is because Python is interpreted and Java is compiled. (For those who want to know more, here’s a resource.) However,...

Visible light communications (VLC) is an emerging field within the communications sector that focuses on providing a medium in which data can be transmitted using a part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye. Numerous work in optical communications has already been created. However, all of them focus on the transmission of light using fiber and free-space, which already pose large issues in infrastructure development. With the use of the visible spectrum and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), VLC forgoes the usual problems with data connectivity and is able to provide even higher rates for the transmission of data. VLC...

It seems like every week, there’s a news report about how artificial intelligence is disrupting one industry or another. Nothing feels more futuristic than the promise of autonomous cars, but it’s important to recognize that AI’s uses already permeate other aspects of our lives in ways that feel far less at home in a science-fiction film. Everything from Google’s search engine algorithms to Apple’s SIRI uses AI to operate more effectively. With the Wall Street Journal reporting that investment in AI is up more than 40 percent than last year, you may be wondering how AI will impact call centers....

2019 is off to a good start in terms of technology updates and trends. There are a lot of interesting new developments out there and the rest of the year might end up throwing in a few surprises. Here’s a look at the five biggest technology trends controlling the scenery in 2019.
