This year’s focus will be on mobile networks and scalable Internet applications, IoT and edge computing, machine learning, cloud data management, and healthcare innovation, keeping in line with noticeable trends in these realms. The past years have seen and an unprecedented proliferation in data, user growth in mobile platforms, and migration of enterprise infrastructures to cloud computing paradigms. The consequential impact on research and innovation has been encouraging. However the resulting developments have led to increase in complexity for the consumer and enterprises, over-loaded mobile networks, and security concerns.
