Technology: The Effect of Application Modernization in Business Agility in Organizations
Section 1: Introduction
Application modernization refers to the re-defining of the software system of any business so that it must be aligned with the modern business needs to fulfill the newly arising customer demands (Johnson and Mulder, 2015). The refactoring of an application should be done so that the reduction of business costs is observed so that maximum benefit for both customers and the business itself could be produced equally. Therefore, the codebase and business application features are becoming of main concern in modernization. Keeping up with the changing customer preferences with quickness in product and service delivery and creating an innovative customer experience should be highlighted. Organizations have to be thoughtful about deploying application modernization for enlarging business opportunities and facilitating customer satisfaction, augmenting sales, and expanding profits. This paper aims at providing a full research proposal regarding the selecting area of interest, which is the focus of the research question: examining the effect of application modernization in business agility in organizations, specifically for the banking sector.
The hypotheses developed for this purpose are:
First hypothesis: Adapting application modernization would create a negative impact on the firms time to market
Second hypothesis: The more modern applications, the more costs are saved by enhancing I.T. resources and DevOps.
Third hypothesis: Adaptation of application modernization would hurt the number of services offered by the application itself.
Section 2: Recipients of Research
The primary recipients of the research would be my academic institution and the pertinent staff, along with my thesis supervisor. Additional recipients would include the banking industry personnel to reduce their costs by realizing the increased pressure of globalization and the pandemics that pose extra costs and needs for delivering the best digital services to their clients when uncertainty hits hard. The financial institutions are always on the drive to search for new ways of innovation and modernizing their application legacy so that revolutionizing the I.T. infrastructure strengthens their functionality and service delivery.
Section 3: Suitability of Researcher for the Research
The researcher for this proposed research must know correlational research to investigate the relationship of one variable on the other. The previous conceptual model of the current research proposal indicated that the independent variable is an adaptation of application modernization. In contrast, the dependent variables are the time to market, cost reduction and the number of services, the awareness of establishing these relationships, and then carrying out the research should be the primary focus of the researcher for this paper. Also, the researcher should possess familiarity with a quantitative study, the formulation of a quantitative survey, its data extraction, analysis, understanding the meaning of the quantifiers, and the interpretation of the quantified data to translate it into an accurate analysis.
As the correlational research needs to develop a relationship between the variables, the technological trends and patterns in the baking consumer industry would be assessed with the correlation based on the three hypotheses. Therefore, my academic and work background would be helpful for this topic since I have worked as an intern in one of the banks located in my vicinity where I live. I was able to form and maintain good terms with the bank office managers and the colleagues and therefore anticipate that they would help gain the quantitative data that I need for this research. My academic background, especially the course in Statistics, has supported me in gaining knowledge of qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection and their relevant analysis that helps extract meaning out of the research. My work background would assist me in using my contacts within the internship bank...

Modernization of the 19th Century: Modernization can be described as the period characterized by rapid industrialization and urban growth across several countries in the globe. In addition to expanding the scope of interaction and activity, industrialization changes the society into being predominantly urban from being agrarian.

Modernization in the United States and the Global Community How does modernization manifest itself in U.S. society? Truly, modernization in the United States began in earnest with the inception of the Industrial Revolution in the late 19th and early 20th century. Accordingly, it would manifest in direct concordance with the imperatives of a laissez faire economy. The technological and commodity oriented production boom that, nearing the turn to the 20th century, instigated
In fact, the very face of business has undergone great metamorphosis with the technology that has been applied to the labeling of merchandise. Labeling whether for the purpose of fighting shoplifting crimes or for the more efficient tracking of merchandise from point of production to point of sales has become the very nerve center of today's business operations and processes. RFID technology will soon enable customers to breeze throughout

Yet there was no smooth transition. Ohara designed a new penal system following the Western panopticon model in which prisoners were subject to pervasive surveillance. Botsman analyzes Ohara's "Rules" to show how the subjectivity of prisoners was constituted. Ohara laid out careful rules for the location and living grounds for inmates down to the material details. Inside the prison, Botsman says, "complete and perfect order was to reign." The building should
