In industry 4.0 and digital economy, an IoT-equipped machine and its applications can replace the human in most of the key activities in daily life or work at company or factory. For instance, these applications can generate basic decisions or actions from a sequence of commands transferred from the IoT devices or IoT-equipped machines use to detect vehicle violations in traffic or a defective product in assembling or broken package in distribution system.

With this book, you’ll be able to implement the IoT devices, IoT-equipped machines, AI-equipped IoT applications using models and methodologies along with covering smart IoT technologies to support planting activities, to manage tasks, to predict outcomes, to forecast risks, to make informed decisions that facilitate improving in the various services and production activities in the field of Healthcare, Manufacturing, Higher Education, Home and Building, Transportation, Airport, Population Management, Finance Services, Banking Services, Urban Management, Workforce Management, Agriculture, Aquaculture, Petroleum Exploration, Forest Management, Smart City, Power and Grid System, Cultural Heritage Management. We really believe that the technologies and applications of the Advanced IoT Technologies and Applications in Industry 4.0 Economy book will favor the people's aspirations.

Advanced IoT Technologies and Applications in the Industry 4.0 Digital Economy book proceedings will be published by CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, Florida, USA
