What's Blockchain in a plain English?

Blockchain is just a type of database which continuously maintains the list of records called blocks. Each block has a timestamp and a link to the previous block. The data in a blockchain cannot be modified, they are resistant to update. With the use of end to end network and distributed server, a database is managed automatically by itself. This is an open ledger which can record transaction between two parties effectively and verifiable way. 

These is a database which is secured by design. This is an example of fault tolerance with distributed computing system. This kind of functionality helps blockchain to record any kind of critical records like bank transactions, amount, medical data, etc.

The blockchain was first of all introduced by Satoshi Nakamoto. In the year 2008 and implemented 2008 as a main component of digital currency bitcon.

In blockchain there is not any main copy in which all the data is stored. If a person wants to change his data copy, it will be shown as reflected until the file is verified by verifier. Because of this the chances of security breaches or hacking reduce. Blockchain uses public and private keys to encrypt. Here the private key is only with the receiver or owner, it is not shared anywhere. At the time of transaction only public key is shared. Here public key is also in encrypted format.


There are some disadvantages of blockchain:
The transaction part takes too much time. As transaction verification process is too long it takes more time compared to other technologies.
It consumes more storage.
It is costly in comparison with other technologies.  

There are some custom blockchain software development done by custom software development company in india.

Road to AI and its Applications

Since the creation of computers or equipment, their capability to complete various tasks has grown exponentially. Man have advanced the power of computer systems in various diverse in work domains with the custom software by the softwaredevelopment companies, in terms of increased speed, and reduced size with respect to time.

A division of Computer Science named Artificial Intelligence follows creating the computers or equipment as intelligent and smart as human beings.

Artificial Intelligence

According to [ CITATION RCC16 \l 1033 ], Artificial Intelligence is defined as “The science and engineering of creating intelligent machines, particularly intelligent computer programs”.

Artificial Intelligence is a technique of making a computer, a computer-controlled robot, or a software that think logically, in a similar manner the human mind work and think.

Artificial Intelligence is accomplished by reading and studying how human brain thinks, and how humans absorb and learn, take decision, and work while attempting to solve a problem, and later using the results of the study as a base to develop intelligent software and systems.

Thus, the development of Artificial Intelligence started with the purpose of replicating human intelligence completely.

Goals of Artificial Intelligence

AI gives possible goals to pursue system that can think like humans and act rationally. Artificial Intelligence aims at creating expert systems which exhibit intelligent behavior, to learn, demonstrate and advice users for the help they are seeking for. Thus, software development companies should build software system with the Artificial Intelligence that tries to implement Human Intelligence in equipment and machines that can understand, learn and behave as human beings.

Artificial Intelligence Technique

Artificial Intelligence Technique is a way to consolidate, well organize and effective usage of the knowledge in such a way that can be perceived by the people who offer it. The knowledge should be useful in every situation even though it is incomplete or inaccurate.

AI techniques raise execution speed of the complex programs by correcting the errors.

Applications of AI

Artificial Intelligence has been prevailing in various fields and domains such as

• Gaming 

Games are interactive computer program, basically a developing area in which the areas of human level artificial intelligence are pursued. Artificial Intelligence plays vital role in strategic and calculated games such as chess, checkers, etc., where machine can consider numerous possible locations based on heuristic knowledge. It also take into consideration the time-limits of the each phase of game.

• Expert Systems 

Artificial Intelligence enables a system to identify and diagnose situations without the presence of any human expert. There exists few applications which integrate equipment, software, and important information to deliver reasoning and advising. The Expert Systems rely on knowledge of human experts for example Planning, scheduling, taking Financial Decision, Diagnosis, troubleshooting and taking corrective decisions.

• Computer Vision Systems

It is a combination of techniques and ideas from Computer Graphics, digital image processing. Computer Vision systems understand, and follow visual inputs on the computer for example, photographs taken by spying aeroplane for the purpose of gathering information for geographical maps. In medical terms, diagnosing the patients using clinical expert system used by doctors. For the investigation purpose like police using the computer software for face recognition of the criminals portrait made by forensics artist.

• Speech Recognition

A procedure of converting a speech signal to the arrangement of words. The typical usage includes Voice Dialing, Call routing. It can also be used for data entry.

Various intelligent systems are proficient at hearing and grasping the language in terms of verdicts while a human communicates to it. It handles different accents, Background Noise, etc.

• Intelligent Robots

Robots are able to perform and accomplish the human tasks. They are built with sensors to detect physical data from the real world such as temperature, movement, sound, heat and pressure. They have competent processors, various sensors and huge memory, to exhibit intelligence. In addition, Intelligent Robots are proficient at learning from mistakes committed and adapt changes as per the new environment.

Conclusion: [ CITATION RCC16 \l 1033 ]
The custom software development companies can develop and use various systems which have in-built Artificial Intelligence. The capabilities of the system with Artificial intelligence will increase the effectiveness and speed of the work along with the time consumption.
