Theme

 

The technology of Internet of Things (IoT) enables smart interconnection
among devices through the Internet. Nowadays, IoT devices are used in
manufacturing, logistics, transportation, retail, healthcare, agriculture,
automotive and industrial markets. Presently, the IoT is flourishing in home
electronics, from entertainment to smart home control. Electronics
manufacturers have been connecting devices and appliances for years - now
massive availability of massive availability of in-home Wi-Fi, 5G wireless
network and connectivity points are creating an environment that enables
devices to constantly be connected into the cloud to send operational,
warranty and service data.

For the networking among businesses and/or consumers, IoT promises new
business applications that attach with physical objects like machines and
devices. In recent years, the advancements in internet protocols, smart
sensors, communication technologies and embedded systems are used to
increase the business profits, manufacturing, and quality of service. The
essential need is to have smart IoT devices, actuators and sensors that
bring a new class of enterprise applications. Numerous IoT-based potential
business opportunities will be made in the upcoming years as we head into a
progressively connected world. 

This advancement is used to support and enhance the intelligent
decision-making and enterprise business applications. For example, vehicles
with GPS tracking technologies are connected with control and monitoring
systems to assist smart machines or logistics with Programmable Logic
controller (PLC) connected with asset performance management systems. Hence,
there is a need to have real-time data collected from processes, machines,
workers and business surroundings. 

The objective of this special issue is to enhance the faster and accurate
decision-making in business applications, business service opportunities,
