What is the definition of modern technology?

Answer from top 10 papers

Modern technology is characterized by the use of the latest advancements in various fields to enhance functionality, efficiency, and aesthetics. It encompasses technological gadgets, methods, and achievements that leverage the most recent IT developments ((Abdullah, 2023)). This broad definition is applicable across different domains, from medical education, where it is integrated into curricula to prepare future doctors for the challenges of the 21st century ((Farkas et al., 2015)), to interior architecture, where it creates smart spaces with systems for energy use, temperature control, and lighting ((Youssef Wahba Ali Karrar, 2019)).
Interestingly, the concept of modern technology is not only associated with its practical applications but also with its impact on social and ethical considerations. For instance, within Islamic discourse, modern technology is examined through the lens of Islamic ethics, where the design of technological development is seen as beneficial for mankind and infused with a plan for good activities ((Lestari Santoso et al., 2021)). Moreover, modern technology's influence extends to irregular conflicts, where non-state actors utilize it to increase their destructive capabilities ((Beccaro, 2022)), and to maritime piracy, where it enables sophisticated and organized attacks ((Nilasari and Steele, 2022)).
In summary, modern technology refers to the most advanced and up-to-date technological features, methods, and achievements that are applied across various sectors to improve outcomes and address contemporary needs ((Abdullah, 2023)). Its definition is not confined to a single field but is recognized for its transformative effects on education ((Farkas et al., 2015)), design ((Youssef Wahba Ali Karrar, 2019)), ethical frameworks ((Lestari Santoso et al., 2021)), conflict dynamics ((Beccaro, 2022)), and legal interpretations ((Nilasari and Steele, 2022)).

Introducing cutting edge technology to the anatomy curriculum at the University of Pecs
  • Apr 1, 2015
  • The FASEB Journal
  • Jozsef Farkas + 3 more

Modern technology is a part of our life. Today, medical doctors utilize cutting edge technology in all fields for the benefit of their patients. It is essential for medical students to learn to live and work with modern technology as early as possible in their carrier.Turning towards the latest technology in education is a clear tendency now. Newly founded and dynamically developing universities, such as Ross University, School of Medicine, are in the vanguard of utilizing technology in education. This process is significantly slower and more difficult in old medical schools where there are strong traditions of teaching. The University of Pecs (UP), Hungary is one of Europe's oldest universities (founded in 1367 A.D.). In the Medical School at UP the leadership realized the necessity of introducing modern technology to the curriculum, while keeping and respecting the old traditions. The anatomy curriculum provides an excellent opportunity for this. In the anatomy department students meet their first “patient”. In the dissection rooms they meet the human body in the traditional way while dissecting cadavers, but at the same time an excellent opportunity is presented to introduce the latest technological innovations utilized both in medical education and clinical practice. With the support of the UP, School of Medicine, the Department of Anatomy started a robust modernization to help the future doctors to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

  • Jun 1, 2019
  • International Journal of Artificial Intelligence and Emerging Technology
  • Salma Youssef Wahba Ali Karrar

Science is developing significantly in all fields, and of course this development serves the person, and the designer is always looking for everything new and modern that makes his design more successful. The more the designer introduces modern techniques to the design of the internal space, the more contemporary the space becomes, and saves a lot of time and effort, whether for him or for the occupant of the vacuum. Modern technology has provided many and many design solutions and produced spaces that are functionally and aesthetically successful. The world is now heading to the use of modern technologies and advanced technology that achieve savings, whether by energy or raw materials, which also serve the human need and fit with the internal void and its modern requirements and functions, keeping pace with progress and modernity, linking the present with the future, and integrating the originality of thought and environmental character with technology and development. The internal space becomes a smart space in which multiple systems of energy use, temperature control, lighting, sound and communications are compatible, as electronic systems are introduced that work to control different systems of lighting, air conditioning, energy, etc., hence the importance of the research as the research presents applications for the use of technology And modern technologies in interior architecture, and their impact on the concept and vocabulary of interior design.

There is an urgent interest among Muslims to participate in broader religious thought activities regarding the nature of modern technology in response to the refutation presented by the ideals of current technology. The impact and use on understanding modern technology cannot be limited. It is so much more pervasive because it conditions ideas, creates our goals and desires. In order to measure modern technology from within the framework of Islamic ethics and design the Islamic paradigm, this is very important by looking at psychological, spiritual, social, moral and circles of the latest postmodernist technology. For holistic insight and moral enhancement of technology, fortitude and practical appropriateness to respond to the latest (contemporary) incident produced due to technology that is holy and ethical poor. Maqashid al-syar'ah hold a useful asset. Muslims should review their traditional notions of Advantage (maṣlaḥah) along with take advantage of these fundamental religious ethics. The design of technological development is beneficial for mankind, because modern technology is infused through It is having a plan all by itself regarding good activities. The intense problem of the Islamic background is which kind of human needs (maṣlaḥah) intense a religion legal discussion can deal with the set of technological values. Muslim jurists, when assessing modern technology, often make use of expressions that describe the optimistic predictions of technology when it comes to human success. This resulted in most of them interpreting human benefit (maṣlaḥah) in terms of technology and issuing fatwas. This makes them be given a particularistic technique to the effect of cutting-edge generation with out considering the effect that current era would possibly have on Muslim life. In this article, it is argued that the contextual-important philosophy of contemporary-day era describes one of the preconditions for outlining what constitutes a reputable human interest (maṣlaḥah). This may be accomplished whilst on the identical time increasing the scope of Islamic Goals (maqashid al-syar'ah) to consist of critical lectures. It links the dual hermeneutic action between the Islamic (time) conception of human goodness (maṣlaḥah) and the axiological contextual perception of the problem during the model of technological development.
