Recently, artificial intelligence (AI), the internet of things (IoT), and cognitive technologies have successfully been applied to various research domains, including computer vision, natural language processing, voice recognition, and more. In addition, AI with IoT has made a significant breakthrough and a shift in technical direction to achieve high efficiency and adaptability in a variety of new applications. On the other hand, network design and optimization for AI applications addresses a complementary topic, namely the support of AI-based systems through novel networking techniques, including new architectures, as well as performance models for IoT systems. IoT has paved the way to a plethora of new application domains, at the same time posing several challenges as a multitude of devices, protocols, communication channels, architectures, and middleware exist. Big data generated by these devices calls for advanced learning and data mining techniques to effectively understand, learn, and reason with this volume of information, such as cognitive technologies. Cognitive technologies play a major role in developing successful cognitive systems which mimic “cognitive” functions associated with human intelligence, such as “learning” and “problem solving.” Thus, there is a continuing demand for recent research in these two linked fields. The Handbook of Research on Innovations and Applications of AI, IoT, and Cognitive Technologies discusses the latest innovations and applications of AI, IoT, and cognitive-based smart systems. The chapters cover the intersection of these three fields in emerging and developed economies in terms of their respective development situation, public policies, technologies and intellectual capital, innovation systems, competition and strategies, marketing and growth capability, and governance and relegation models. These applications span areas such as healthcare, security and privacy, industrial systems, multidisciplinary sciences, and more. This book is ideal for technologists, IT specialists, policymakers, government officials, academics, students, and practitioners interested in the experiences of innovations and applications of AI, IoT, and cognitive technologies.

Finally, applications of AI enabled IoT in several areas are presented including health, security, climate change, agricultural engineering, bioinformatics, biomedicine, smart applications, natural language processing, social and economic implications of AI enabled IoT, as well as robotics, sustainability, risk management, seismic data processing, smart grid management, text analysis, security, privacy, and ethics.

Cognitive Hyperconnected Digital Transformation provides an overview of the current Internet of Things (IoT) landscape, ranging from research, innovation and development priorities to enabling technologies in a global context. It is intended as a standalone book in a series that covers the Internet of Things activities of the IERC-Internet of Things European Research Cluster, including both research and technological innovation, validation and deployment. The book builds on the ideas put forward by the European Research Cluster, the IoT European Platform Initiative (IoT-EPI) and the IoT European Large-Scale Pilots Programme, presenting global views and state-of-the-art results regarding the challenges facing IoT research, innovation, development and deployment in the next years. Hyperconnected environments integrating industrial/business/consumer IoT technologies and applications require new IoT open systems architectures integrated with network architecture (a knowledge-centric network for IoT), IoT system design and open, horizontal and interoperable platforms managing things that are digital, automated and connected and that function in real-time with remote access and control based on Internet-enabled tools. The IoT is bridging the physical world with the virtual world by combining augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to support the physical-digital integrations in the Internet of mobile things based on sensors/actuators, communication, analytics technologies, cyber-physical systems, software, cognitive systems and IoT platforms with multiple functionalities. These IoT systems have the potential to understand, learn, predict, adapt and operate autonomously. They can change future behaviour, while the combination of extensive parallel processing power, advanced algorithms and data sets feed the cognitive algorithms that allow the IoT systems to develop new services and propose new solutions. IoT technologies are moving into the industrial space and enhancing traditional industrial platforms with solutions that break free of device-, operating system- and protocol-dependency. Secure edge computing solutions replace local networks, web services replace software, and devices with networked programmable logic controllers (NPLCs) based on Internet protocols replace devices that use proprietary protocols. Information captured by edge devices on the factory floor is secure and accessible from any location in real time, opening the communication gateway both vertically (connecting machines across the factory and enabling the instant availability of data to stakeholders within operational silos) and horizontally (with one framework for the entire supply chain, across departments, business units, global factory locations and other markets). End-to-end security and privacy solutions in IoT space require agile, context-aware and scalable components with mechanisms that are both fluid and adaptive. The convergence of IT (information technology) and OT (operational technology) makes security and privacy by default a new important element where security is addressed at the architecture level, across applications and domains, using multi-layered distributed security measures. Blockchain is transforming industry operating models by adding trust to untrusted environments, providing distributed security mechanisms and transparent access to the information in the chain. Digital technology platforms are evolving, with IoT platforms integrating complex information systems, customer experience, analytics and intelligence to enable new capabilities and business models for digital business.
