The fast growth of communication, processing and networking technology has enabled connected devices while bringing massive amounts of data to a variety of fields. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that is assisting people in reimagining daily life, but AI is the true driving force behind the IoT's full potential. The IoT is empowered by three key emerging technologies: artificial intelligence (AI), 5G networks, and big data. The AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) is being created as a result of these interconnected technologies. They are going to change the way people interact with devices at home and work. Wearables, smart homes, smart cities, and smart industries are the four primary areas where AIoT is having an influence on.
The AIoT's purpose is to bring intelligence to the edge, allowing devices to recognize data, assess their surroundings, and choose the best course of action. IoT devices have grown into intelligent machines capable of executing self-driven analytics and responding independently, thanks to the power of AI. Hence, IoT devices are no longer just messengers delivering messages to the control center. Although the integration of IoT and AI has created a variety of new technologies and applications, a number of challenges have emerged and need to be addressed by the research community. One important step in achieving AIoT is to connect multiple things in a collaborative manner. Connecting things or objects without collaboration results in AIoT issues such as wasteful energy consumption, unclear security, and inconsistent performance. Another crucial step is to connect AIoT with other modern technologies leading to convergence. Both academia and industry should pay close attention to how to properly connect AIoT with 5G networks, cloud computing, and blockchain, among other technologies.
Therefore, this special issue welcomes high-quality contributions in AIoT, machine learning, 5G networks, and big data from academic and industry-related experts who perform research on AI model creation for IoT systems and present the most cutting-edge approaches and applications.
