Lock In

We offer a path-centric theory of emerging technology and organizing that addresses a basic question. When does emerging technology lead to transformative change? A path-centric perspective on technology focuses on the patterns of actions afforded by technology in use. We identify performing and patterning as self-reinforcing mechanisms that shape patterns of action in the domain of emerging technology and organizing. We use a dynamic simulation to show that performing and patterning can lead to a wide range of trajectories, from lock-in to transformation, depending on how emerging technology in use influences the pattern of action. When emerging technologies afford new actions that can be flexibly recombined to generate new paths, decisive transformative effects are more likely. By themselves, new affordances are not likely to generate transformation. We illustrate this theory with examples from the practice of pharmaceutical drug discovery. The path-centric perspective offers a new way to think about generativity and the role of affordances in organizing.

Technology suppliers, waste system managers and project developers across North America are endeavoring to find and implement new approaches to converting the energy in waste to electricity or alternate fuels. These entities, as well as potential financiers and communities that might benefit from these emerging technologies, often retain an independent engineer to assist in establishing the status and risks of the technology itself or the feasibility a specific project that has been proposed. Although independent engineering assessments are a well-established element of the non-recourse finance process, individuals and organizations new to the development process are often unfamiliar with the usefulness and content of these assessments. In the context of emerging technology-based projects, this paper will provide an overview of the role of an independent engineer in the development process, explain the typical assessment process, and discuss the content of a typical independent engineering report (“IE Report”).

The current study investigated the role of forensic accounting techniques in reducing Cloud Based Accounting risks in the Jordanian five stars hotels. The study population consisted of all accountants in Jordanian five stars hotels. Five stars hotels accountants located in Amman the capital were selected subjects. The total is (170) accountants. A random sample amounting 118 accountants were selected. 118 questionnaires were distributed and 96ones were collected. The study concluded that: There is a significant role of Forensic Accounting Techniques ((FPDDS), (FAIIS), (LMAS), (CARDR)) in reducing Cloud Based Accounting risks in the Jordanian five stars hotels. Despite the fact that nature of computer crime is increasing daily, so there is a need for different types of efforts, to be made on all levels of cloud investigations. And in the same time all legislations and codification related to computer crimes must be updated and reviewed from time to time to keep up with emerging technology.

Artificial intelligence is an emerging technology that is popular in education technology. AI plays a vital role to e-teaching and e-learning in higher education. In this chapter, a major focus is on exploring the wonders of the development of AI in higher education for teaching and learning processes. It analyses the educational ramifications of rising innovations in transit student learning and how organizations instruct and develop. Late inventive degrees of progress and the accelerating new headway in cutting edge training are researched to predict the future thought of cutting-edge instruction in all actuality. The role of AI in higher education is presented in detail by systematic review.
