introduction to industrial revolution 4.0 The world is entering the fourth industrial revolution, a new manufacturing revolution associated with unprecedented technological breakthroughs, thanks to the connectivity of billions of people around the world through mobile devices and the ability to access large databases, information processing features will be multiplied by technological breakthrough In areas such as artificial intelligence, robotics, Internet of things, autonomous vehicles, hologram, nanotechnology, biotechnology, materials science, energy storage and quantum computation This manufacturing revolution has had a strong impact on every country, nation, business, and people around the globe, as well as fundamentally changing the way we live, work, and produce 1.2 The concept of industrial revolution 4.0 Industry 4.0, is a term that encompasses a wide range of modern automation, data exchange, and manufacturing technologies Industry 4.0 is defined as "a term phrase for the technologies and concepts of the organization in the value chain" associated with physical systems in virtual space, the internet of things connecting things (IoT), and the internet of services (IoS) Industry 4.0 originates from the 3rd revolution it combines technologies together, blurring the lines between physics, digital, and biology The difference between Industry 4.0 and the previous revolutions is that Industry 4.0 is not associated with the advent of a specific technology, but the convergence of many different technologies, of which the focus is on nanotechnology, biotechnology, information, and communication technology The essence of Industry 4.0 is based on digital technology and integrates all intelligent technologies to optimize production processes and methods; emphasizing technologies that are and will have the greatest impact are 3D printing technology, biotechnology, new material technology, automation technology, robotics, The world is witnessing a series of scientific breakthroughs and technological advances These are the trends and driving forces that lead Industry 4.0 Countless organizations are already using different technologies that will promote Industry 4.0 New scientific and technological breakthroughs seem limitless, taking place in so many different ways and in many different places The key technologies to consider are based on research conducted by the World Economic Forum and the work of several global agenda boards All new developments and new technologies have one thing in common: they leverage the pervasive power of digitalization and information technology (IT) [1] Therefore information technology is a very important part of the technology revolution 4.0 1.3 Introduction and concept of the information technology industry So, what is information technology? Information technology is a term used to refer to the sciences and technologies involved in information and information processing System of methods, technologies, means, and scientific tools, including mainly computers, communication networks, and data warehouse systems for organizing, storing, transmitting and exploiting and using effectively using information resources in all economic, social and cultural fields of human, Information technology is a technology that manages and opens up many different fields such as computer software, systems information, computer hardware, programming languages but not limited to certain things like processes and data structure In short, anything that represents data, information, or knowledge in display formats, through any multimedia delivery mechanism is considered a subset of the tech domain information Information technology provides businesses with four core groups of services that help implement business strategies: business automation, information delivery, customer connections, and production tools, IT is not only one industry, but is being considered a "super industry" because of its continuous development in all other economic sectors and industries In Vietnam, IT is one of the industries with the highest growth rate with a rate of over 10% / year However, the human resources inside are seriously lacking Each year, the number of newly trained human resources in the IT industry is just over 30,000 people, while the recruitment demand of the industry is 80,000 people/year (Ministry of Information and Communications, 2016) This human resource is not just ordinary programmers, but also an additional logistics team in the areas of product research and development, process optimization - development Information technology affects all aspects of human life, creating breakthrough changes such as the way people communicate, how information is used, the form of work and the nature of work, and the nature of business government activities as well as healthcare and medical practice For work, computers also better than humans, calculate more accurately and quickly, automate jobs The final score that IT brings is value to the user: how to apply technology to best understand the user, provide the best service In the 4.0 revolution, information technology was one of the spearhead industries that brought great development to science and technology Information technology is a solid foundation for the development of each country in the world in all fields such as economics, medicine, education, security, and life It is the rapid development of the IT industry that creates a strong driving force for Industry 4.0 And it can be said that information technology is the brain of the 4.0 technology revolution It seems that every field of change in the 4.0 revolution has been influenced by the information technology industry In addition, the 4.0 revolution opens up many opportunities for the IT industry, thanks to it that the IT industry becomes an important industry in multiple fields Now IT is a solid and fast bridge to the surrounding fields to help the industrial revolution become a giant production environment Therefore, between the industrial revolution 4.0 and the IT industry, there is always a deep and important connection, thanks to this connection, the two develop together sustainably In the industrial revolution 4.0, the IT industry is seen as a "cake" that any individual, business or organization wishes and pays special attention to CHAPTER 2: ANALYZE THE CURRENT STATE OF THE PROBLEM 2.1 Information Technology is a delicious piece of cake in the industrial revolution 4.0 Technology is gradually developing continuously, it goes with different times, each step brings to the digital background many great values From the first industrial birth around 1750/1760 to around 1820/1840 in England The outstanding feature of this industrial revolution was the mechanics of machines running on steam and water power that was born and improved, replacing manual labor, thereby increasing output Over the years, the revolutions did not stop there, continuing with the development of chemicals, oil, steel, and electricity that made the second industrial revolution born at that time called technology revolution The third revolution is called the era of information technology, from the 1950s to the end of 1970, it is called the digital revolution, this industrial revolution marked the development Development of Information Technology, the terms digital logic, mos transistors and integrated circuit chips are emerging, producing computers, microprocessors, digital mobile phones, and internet production system changes Since then, with such continuous development, the IT industry has not stood still but took a new step, it promises to bring the world of technology into a new era, which is the Industrial Revolution 4.0 Industry The Fourth focuses on digital technology, which helps provide a more comprehensive, cohesive and comprehensive approach to manufacturing it combines physics with digital technologies that enable collaboration and Better access between parts Central to these networks has emerged technologies in the areas of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the internet of things (IoT), and big data (Big data) or cloud computing Not only that, the industrial revolution 4.0 has made the IT industry change more and more, it renews the current technology From that developed industry, we can also know that access to information technology in the industrial revolution 4.0 has such a great impact 2.2 The influence of Information Technology in the country As I mentioned above in Vietnam, information technology (IT) is one of the industries with the highest growth rate, with a rate of over 10% / year However, human resources in the country are in a serious shortage Each year, the number of newly trained human resources in the IT industry is just over 30,000 people, while the recruitment demand of the industry is 80,000 people/year Not only domestically and internationally has also shown how powerful IT is, according to the Government's Resolution No 49/CP of August 4, 1993, indicating: “Information technology is collection of modern scientific methods, technical means, and tools - mainly computer and telecommunications - to organize the efficient exploitation and use of very rich information resources and potentials in all areas of human and social activities” [2] So we also know that the widespread and powerful development of IT today applies to all fields in all aspects of today's society A recent survey by the Ministry of Information and Communication shows that the need for IT human resources in Vietnam by 2020 is 1.2 million people working in the software, hardware, and public sectors digital technology That is just the number for 2020 Information Technology will be the cradle to go forward in the future About the universities each major registration period, Information Technology is always ranked at the top for the future ahead with a large number of students studying, with passion, development of in today's technology, the students have a vision of their own direction in their search for the future As Master Nam said: "Candidates choose a career according to the trend in the industrial revolution 4.0" Obviously, this field has the advantages of job opportunities, mobility in the workplace, being able to projects Information Technology industries will surely maintain their attraction in the coming time Also according to the latest statistics from the Ministry of Education and Training on the selection of a student's major in 2020, Information Technology has the highest number of university admissions aspirations in the country with 2,490 171 university admissions wishes have been registered In which, the number of aspirations is 640,637, aspiration is 519,449 [3] With this number, we can understand how hot IT is today 2.3 Influence of Information Technology in the World To talk about the development of technology, this is a topic where technology started in countries like the UK, Germany and many other countries, in the field of Information Technology it has a strong impact, is important for global development In developed European countries it generates revenue and employs relatively high average wages The IT sector also helps other sectors to “improve productivity, operate more efficiently and innovate faster,” according to CompTIA With the latest IDC report "Increasing investment in technology is an attractive way for companies to expand their capabilities without necessarily increasing the amount of investment", IDC Raymond Boggs, VP SMB study, note “Technology spending will continue to vary with company size, geographic region, and IT portfolio, with solution-driven spending (specifically related to cloud and mobile) indicating the level of The biggest growth.” [4] Accordingly, the continuous development in the future ahead, as in the United States IT service is considered to represent the technology market accounting for 30% of the country 2.4 Information Technology systems in industry Regarding the development of technology, the industrial factories or production line systems now have a marked increase in product quality and output, in factories all applying information technology to the latest activity When the process of applying technology to the production or assembly process, industrialists already know the importance of using it According to Dr Tran Thi Hang: Industrial Revolution 4.0 with new technology breakthroughs helps to drastically reduce the cost of manufacturing and operating robots, dramatically reducing production costs of 3D printing technology, thus making to increase the application of robots, 3D printing technology to replace cutting technology in mechanical production, for countries with limited economic potential such as Vietnam [5] Information Technology is a cake between this digital society, for factories or all human activities for many times ahead 2.5 Needs and human resources of IT According to the Global Trends 2018 report published by LinkedIn, 76% of employers and hiring managers think the 4th Industrial Revolution, or more specifically, Information Technology, will have a significant impact to the recruitment industry Employers, especially in areas highly susceptible to automation, may need to improve their skills or shift their focus to a new discipline to continue the game [6] As a recruitment company or a large or small business with a great deal of involvement in the engineering and manufacturing industries, we see the direct impact IT has on industry changes on employment Changes in job descriptions include Industry 4.0 terms like IoT, Ai, Big data, and cloud computing Enterprises are being asked by young human resources to look for candidates who focus more on engineering and technology so that they can adapt to the constantly changing environment, especially the most resource of information technology Although experts predict that Industry 4.0 will reduce labor, the technical departments of businesses find that vacancies are on the rise for today's information technology industry However, the skillset on the market to meet the needs of the environment is scarce, not only that today's society is evolving with technology, people connected to the internet more and more creating ways of doing As such new, IT requires young people to approach quickly with this development As we mentioned above when the fourth revolution comes, the number of employees gradually becomes less when the whole job is no longer dependent on manual labor, making a big change in the workforce When automated systems are installed it becomes more flexible, more efficient in the production of goods and higher product quality, lower costs In an uncertain market, with new technology evolving and the rate of change increases, it is important to consider the business demand for the future that accompanies the growth of the profession in the IT industry A recent study published by the McKinsey Global Institute found that about a fifth of the global workforce will be affected by the adoption of AI and automation, with the most significant impact in developed countries like Great Britain, Germany, and America By 2022, 50% of companies believe automation will reduce their number of full-time employees, and by 2030, robots will replace 800 million workers worldwide [7] Thus, we can see that IT will change everything, it also motivates every IT engineer to reach and absorb faster to be able to keep up with this digital age, most Each information technology engineer needs to improve the skills of operating, controlling, and creating production lines in software engineering as well as hardware, also need to improve the knowledge of organizational management physical Along with the knowledge and ability for each technology engineer to immerse themselves in the innovation of the discovery technology platform to motivate organizations to understand and apply different technologies, begin to think about how they can achieve get those problems 2.6 The challenge for every technology engineer most is the IT industry in revolution 4.0 Of course, with attractive opportunities, IT students also face challenges that are not small The flow of information technology will constantly innovate It was not every month, every year but every day, every hour Therefore, to be able to compete and develop according to that general trend Requiring you to always learn, explore, update knowledge and research if you not want to be left behind and be eliminated New technologies including iodine, AI, big data, and automatic cloud technology cause problems One of the challenges that come with modern technology is the new skills needed from employees to operate machines, code new processes, and the ability to repair new equipment On the board, skills need to develop CHAPTER III: PROPOSING SOLUTIONS The Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) is the foundation for the economy to strongly transform from a model based on resources, low-cost labor to the knowledge economy, digital economy; fundamentally changing the concept of innovating technology and equipment in production lines So, what solutions must we come up with to take advantage of opportunities and overcome the challenges that the 4.0 revolution poses? Industry 4.0 will create great changes in labor supply-demand, labor structure, for our country is an agricultural country mainly based on cheap manual labor and exploitation of natural resources Workers' qualifications are still very outdated, this is a very difficult problem and also one of the biggest challenges when facing Industry 4.0, especially the source of quality engineers in the information technology industry The opportunities for a country with an abundant labor force and cheap labor cost of our country are not small when many large foreign enterprises and corporations want to invest in Vietnam every year, for example, Samsung Electronics, VNIB tech, LG Electronics of Korea, canon, Toyota of Japan Or large domestic technology corporations such as Viettel, VNP, FPT software, BKAV, promise to be one of the sources to attract human resources According to the forecast, the demand for information technology human resources will increase by 47% per year, while the number of IT students who graduate from school only increases by 8% per year, but among That is not everyone can meet the requirements of employers A recent study shows that up to 72% of graduates lack practical experience because the learning process is only theoretically Mostly, 42% of students lack teamwork skills 3.1 Investment in education The first solution given here is that we need to focus on higher education and graduate education; to increase the budget for scientific and technological research and development; improving the quality of human resources; incentives to develop science and technology enterprises to contribute to improving the quality of human resources in the future 3.2 Distributing and developing connecting infrastructure, building and exploiting database Develop 5G mobile internet service; encourage enterprises to invest in expanding the national high-speed fiber-optic network and increase international internet bandwidth through the development credit policy Construct an internet highway for multi-user services, such as public administration services, medical services, education, and other services According to statistics in 2019, Vietnam's population reached approximately 97 million people, with an urban population rate of 36% In the same year, there were 64 million Internet users, an increase of 28% compared to 2017, which is a quite large number for a developing country like Vietnam, the number of registered telephone subscribers is up to 143.3 million numbers This shows that the majority of Vietnamese people have access to smart mobile phones and many people use 2-3 phones at the same time to serve life, as well as work But these are merely actual numbers in Vietnam, the number of people accessing and using the internet is not evenly distributed, but mainly concentrated in cities, deltas, and midlands in mountainous areas due to many There are different objective and subjective reasons and the number of people accessing the internet is still quite limited, so we can see that the influence of the distribution and development of infrastructure is very important 3.3 Invest and develop a number of basic technologies of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 The State actively creates a testing environment for products, services, and technologies of Industry 4.0; building databases to meet the research needs of technologies of Industry 4.0; formulate new tax incentives to encourage businesses to invest in research and development, and provide products and services using priority technologies Currently, our country has a large number of important inventions that bring many benefits to people's lives as well as national development along with the support of the state, many research projects have been and is being implemented, bringing success such as: Completing the design, manufacturing a flexible production line for the pre-engineered light steel building structure of Viet Steel Machinery and Products Company Limited; Improving robot manufacturing technology for training from Vietnam Robot Limited Company (VNRobotics); Research, develop and master the process of manufacturing technology for angioplasty and drug-coated stent balls using Nanotechnology from United Heath Care Factory Co, Ltd Production technology of influenza A / H5N1 vaccine for poultry from the National Veterinary Medicine Joint Stock Company-NAVETCO, Automating the process of tweezers production towards building a smart factory from the Automotive Group Truong Hai; Innovating technology of manufacturing some parts of cranes, port cranes of Vietnam Steel Structure and Lifting Equipment Joint Stock Company - VINALIFT, Our country is currently focusing on investing in technologies with little capital, using a large labor force and rapid capital turnover, with the above basic technologies and great potential in accordance with the party's policy and the state is applying 3.4 Technological innovation according to international trends Technology innovations in the business today to match international trends and market requirements In the current competitive and global environment, businesses that not timely grasp technology to innovate and still choose traditional business methods will risk being eliminated from the market Especially, in the face of the rapid changes from the Industrial Revolution 4.0, if businesses not adapt quickly and take advantage of the modern technology platform to innovate and optimize production, they will have to face it With the risk of being left behind and difficult to exist, reality shows that technology innovation is very important for every enterprise Scientific and technological progress, technological innovation will allow improvement of product quality to create many new products, diversify products, increase output, increase labor productivity, and rationally use raw materials, materials As a result, it will increase competitiveness, expand markets, promote rapid growth, and improve production and business efficiency In recent years, with the emergence and increasing impact of the 4.0 technology revolution, many new business methods based on online development have appeared, such as: Connecting things, big data, electricity cloud computing, production automation, and quality control These business methods not only help businesses to increase productivity and control quality but can also be combined with each other new business activities from analyzing customer behavior, creating new products, promoting products, consulting online, controlling production and quality automatically, financial management, working remotely so the technological innovation is a vital issue for businesses in our country today 3.5 International integration Deeper integration with other countries and international organizations in order to absorb new scientific and technological achievements to serve as a foundation and basis for fostering knowledge workers in our country Currently, Vietnam has an S&T cooperation relationship with nearly 70 international, national and territorial organizations; Over 150 international treaties (Government level) and more than 50 international agreements (ministry level) have been signed, of which, at present, nearly 110 international treaties and nearly 40 international agreements are in effect The Ministry of Science and Technology acts as the focal point for the implementation of international treaties and agreements and is the focal point for multilateral cooperation with many important regional and international organizations such as ASEAN, APEC, COPOS, APRSAF, APO, UNESCO, WTO, WIP, MUTRAP, IAEA, etc with bilateral and multilateral international cooperation activities in the fields of S&T, intellectual property, standards, metrology, quality, atomic energy, radiation and nuclear safety and some other specialized fields The content of S&T international integration has begun to link with the practical requirements of branches and localities, initially effectively serving the national socio-economic development tasks The fields of integration have also been expanded, from basic research to applied research, technology transfer, humanities, and social sciences, natural sciences, interdisciplinary research Forms of international integration in S&T are increasingly diversified and rich through various activities, including negotiation, signing, and implementation of Agreements, joint research cooperation, technology transfer, and exchange experts, organize seminars, conferences, technology demonstrations, technology fairs, etc 3.6 Domestic talent Finally, it is to retain talented people, persuade them to return to Vietnam after studying abroad to work, contributing to limit the "brain drain" in our country Every year we hear about the TV show Road to Olympia, and complain that it is better to call it "The Road to Australia" when 15 out of the sixteen champions go abroad to study in Australia without returning Is it because the remuneration is too narrow compared to the stature and ability of the geniuses after going abroad, they not want to return home or because the domestic working environment is not really attractive, there are so many questions to be solved, but above all, making the young generation aware that the future is in their hands: there will be no change if they are not determined to change themselves In order to so, they must be encouraged to change themselves, which did not actually happen CONCLUDE REFERENCES MATERIAL [1.] Professor Klaus Schwab, “World Economic Forum,” On January 20, 2016 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/39vg9HA [Accessed 3:30 PM, January 10, 2021] [2.] Ph.D Phung Tuan Anh, “Ảnh hưởng công nghệ thông tin đến xuất xu hướng vận dụng Việt Nam,” 10:14 PM, July 8, 2018 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/38GxQEM [Accessed 7:32 AM, January 11, 2021] [3.] Thanh Thanh, “Statistics from the Department of Quality Management, Ministry of Education and Training,” August 24, 2020 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/3qk2YQn [Accessed 5:30 PM, January 12, 2021] [4.] R Bogg, “Dự báo Doanh nghiệp Quy mơ Vừa Nhỏ tồn giới,” July 2015 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/2Lp3Wwd [Accessed 6:30 PM, December 26, 2020] [5.] Ph.D Tran Thi Minh Hang, “Ngành công nghiệp khí Việt Nam cách mạng Cơng nghiệp 4.0,” December 31, 2018 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/38JA3PT [Accessed 3:15 PM, January 31, 2021] [6.] Maddison Brown, “How Industry 4.0 Is Affecting Jobs,” May 26, 2019 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/35FAKry [Accessed January 5, 2021] [7.] Vu Le, “Nhân lực ngành công nghệ thông tin thời 4.0: Vừa thừa, vừa thiếu,” November 14, 2018 [Online] Availabe: http://bit.ly/3srHp2r [Accessed January 12, 2021]
