Cash and Dash: How ATMs and Computers Changed Banking uses the invention and development of the automated teller machine (ATM) to explain the birth and evolution of digital banking, from the 1960s to present day. It tackles head on the drivers of long-term innovation in retail banking with emphasis on the payment system. Using a novel approach to better understanding the industrial organization of financial markets, Cash and Dash contributes to a broader discussion around innovation and labour-saving devices. It explores attitudes to the patent system, formation of standards, organizational politics, the interaction between regulation and strategy, trust and domestication, maintenance versus disruption, and the huge undertakings needed to develop online real-time banking to customers.

This is an open access book.The Department of Computer Science & Engineering, VNR VJIET, successfully organized a 2-Day International e-Conference “International Conference on Advances in Computer Engineering and Communication Systems (ICACECS)" (ICACECS-2020, ICACECS-2021 and ICACECS-2022) consecutively for 3 years. This conference is conducted in association with “ Atlantis Highlights in Computer Science (AHCS) , Atlantis Press(part of Springer Nature) ” the publication partner and technically sponsored by Computer Society of India (CSI). Every year there was an overwhelming response from researchers around the globe publishing their research contributions in “Smart Innovations in Mezzanine Technologies, Data Analytics, Networks and Communication Systems” - the theme of the conference. Continuing this legacy, the international e-conference ICACECS-2023 is now scheduled to be conducted on 22nd & 23rd September 2023. This year, ICACECS-2023 is also co-located at THE UNIVERSITY OF THE WEST INDIES(UWI), AT MONA, JAMAICA. UWI Mona, Jamaica is the founding campus of the unique, multi-part, multi-national University of the West Indies. The square mile site welcomed its first undergraduates – 33 medical students from across the West Indies or now, more often, the Caribbean – in October 1948. The UWI is the region’s premier educational institution, with faculties offering a wide range of undergraduate, masters and doctoral programmes in Humanities and Education, Science and Technology, Science and Agriculture, Engineering, Law, Medical Sciences and Social Sciences. Authors are solicited to contribute their submissions illustrating research results and innovations, and significant advances in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Machine learning, Smart Systems, Networks, and Communication Systems, Quantum computing, Knowledge Engineering and Ontology, Internet of Things, Education Technology and Business Engineering. ICACECS-2023 is a unique forum bringing together scholars from the different countries to participate and transform the Research Landscape of the globe and carve a Road Map for Implementation. It provides a valuable networking opportunity and brings a new era for the Research scholars, Students, Professors, Industrialists providing insights to the recent trends and developments in the field of Computer Science with a special focus on Mezzanine technologies.
