Scope of the Special Issue: Blockchain technology, the Internet of things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI) are recognized as innovations that have the potential to improve current business processes, create new business models, and disrupt whole industries. Blockchain, for example, can increase trust, transparency, security, and privacy of business processes by providing a shared and decentralized distributed ledger. Details of the special issue call are as follows:
Blockchain & IoT
A blockchain, or generally a distributed ledger, can store all kinds of assets similar to a register. Primarily, these data can be related to money and identities. IoT drives the automatization of industries and user-friendliness of business processes which is essential for the German and the European industry. Finally, AI improves processes by detecting patterns and optimizing outcomes of these business processes
Call for Special Issue: Tech Science Press
With this issue researchers can try to answer the questions that come to our minds more and more often as the days are passing:
- Will our lives, education, and the known world of the Internet change with this convergence of the blockchain, the Internet of things, and artificial intelligence?
- Will we, people, be able to keep up with these amazing changes?
- Are companies willing to invest in new technology?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages for society, in general?
- Are the managers of companies aware of these phenomena of the new information technologies and are they open to these changes?
Through the statistical data that researchers have accessed by researching various information sources, researchers have come to some conclusions, but the phenomenon is in full development and until now researchers do not know all its mysteries.
Hope that this issue could prove that convergence will drive the development of such autonomous business models and, with it, the digital transformation of Education and economics.
