This book focuses on new methods, architectures, and applications for the management of Cyber Physical Objects (CPOs) in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT). It covers a wide range of topics related to CPOs, such as resource management, hardware platforms, communication and control, and control and estimation over networks. It also discusses decentralized, distributed, and cooperative optimization as well as effective discovery, management, and querying of CPOs. Other chapters outline the applications of control, real-time aspects, and software for CPOs and introduce readers to agent-oriented CPOs, communication support for CPOs, real-world deployment of CPOs, and CPOs in Complex Systems. There is a focus on the importance of application of IoT technologies for Smart Cities.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems, IDCS 2015, held in Windsor, UK, in September 2015. The 19 revised full and 6 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. The selected contributions covered cutting-edge aspects of Cloud Computing and Internet of Things, sensor networks, parallel and distributed computing, advanced networking, smart cities and smart buildings, Big Data and social networks.
The two-volume set LNICST 169 and 170 constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Internet of Things Summit, IoT 360° 2015, held in Rome, Italy, in October 2015. The IoT 360° is an event bringing a 360 degree perspective on IoT-related projects in important sectors such as mobility, security, healthcare and urban spaces. The conference also aims to coach involved people on the whole path between research to innovation and the way through to commercialization in the IoT domain. This volume contains 61 revised full papers at the following four conferences: International Conference on IoT as a Service, IoTaaS, International Conference on Mobility in IoT, Mobility IoT, International Conference on Sensor Systems and Software, S-Cube, International Conference on Interoperability in IoT, InterioT, International Conference on Software Defined and Virtual Future Wireless Networks, SDWNCT.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Body Area Networks, BodyNets 2020, held in Tallinn, Estonia, in October 2020. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.The 15 papers presented were selected from 30 submissions and issue new technologies to provide trustable measuring and communications mechanisms from the data source to medical health databases. Wireless body area networks (WBAN) are one major element in this process. Not only on-body devices but also technologies providing information from inside a body are in the focus of this conference. Dependable communications combined with accurate localization and behavior analysis will benefit WBAN technology and make the healthcare processes more effective.
Examining the changing nature of cities in the face of smart technology, this book studies key new challenges and capabilities defined by the Internet of Things, data science, blockchain and artificial intelligence. It argues that using algorithmic logic alone for automation and optimisation in modern smart cities is not sufficient, and analyses the importance of integrating this with strong participatory governance and digital platforms for community action.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 14th EAI International Conference on Body Area Networks, BodyNets 2019, held in Florence, Italy, in October 2019. The 27 papers presented were selected from 54 submissions and issue new technologies to provide trustable measuring and communications mechanisms from the data source to medical health databases. Wireless body area networks (WBAN) are one major element in this process. Not only on-body devices but also technologies providing information from inside a body are in the focus of this conference. Dependable communications combined with accurate localization and behavior analysis will benefit WBAN technology and make the healthcare processes more effective.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems, IDCS 2014, held in Calabria, Italy, in September 2014. The 23 revised full and 15 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers cover the following topics: ad-hoc and sensor networks; internet and Web technologies; network operations and management; multi-agent systems; cloud-based information infrastructures.
