Reviews
“The current digital age has undergone a paradigm shift with various IoT-enabled interconnected objects that connect everything starting from devices and people as well as smart systems. On the other hand, WSN with various sensor nodes has the capability for sensing the physical properties and thus plays the key role for IoT. This book briefs the foundational concepts of WSN and IoT and further aggregates their technical features for various application domains. The book also highlights how the technological benefits of both the domains are misused by cyber criminals to commit digital crimes and thus addresses the security aspects of the domains. The book concludes with the research challenges, directions, and opportunities of future work for WSN and IoT to focus on.”

Wireless Sensor Networks and the Internet of Things: Future Directions and Applications explores a wide range of important and real-time issues and applications in this ever-advancing field. Different types of WSN and IoT technologies are discussed in order to provide a strong framework of reference, and the volume places an emphasis on solutions to the challenges of protection, conservation, evaluation, and implementation of WSN and IoT that lead to low-cost products, energy savings, low carbon usage, higher quality, and global competitiveness.

The volume is divided into four sections that cover

  • Wireless sensor networks and their relevant applications

  • Smart monitoring and control systems with the Internet of Things

  • Attacks, threats, vulnerabilities, and defensive measures for smart systems

  • Research challenges and opportunities
This collection of chapters on an important and diverse range of issues presents case studies and applications of cutting-edge technologies of WSN and IoT that will be valuable for academic communities in computer science, information technology, and electronics, including cyber security, monitoring, and data collection. The informative material presented here can be applied to many sectors, including agriculture, energy and power, resource management, biomedical and health care, business management, and others.
