Recently, the internet of things (IoT) has brought the vision of a smarter world into reality with a massive amount of data and numerous services. With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, artificial intelligence (AI) has gained significant attention by utilizing its machine learning algorithms for quality patient care. The integration of IoT with AI may open new possibilities for both technologies and can play a big part in smart healthcare by providing improved insight into healthcare data and allowing for more inexpensive personalized care. The Handbook of Research on Advancements in AI and IoT Convergence Technologies considers recent advancements in AI and IoT convergence technologies with a focus on state-of-the-art approaches, methodologies, and systems for the design, development, deployment, and innovative use of those convergence technologies. It also provides insight into how to develop AI and IoT convergence techniques to meet industrial demands and covers the emerging research topics that are going to define the future of AI and IoT convergence technology development. Covering key topics such as diseases, smart healthcare, social distance monitoring, and security, this major reference work is ideal for industry professionals, nurses, healthcare workers, computer scientists, policymakers, researchers, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.

The research in this book looks at the likelihood and level of use of implemented technological components with regard to the adoption of different precision agricultural technologies. To identify the variables affecting farmers' choices to embrace more precise technology, zero-inflated Poisson and negative binomial count data regression models are utilized. Outcomes from the count data analysis of a random sample of various farm operators show that various aspects, including farm dimension, farmer demographics, soil texture, urban impacts, farmer position of liabilities, and position of the farm in a state, were significantly associated with the approval severity and likelihood of precision farming technologies. Technical topics discussed in the book include: Precision agriculture Machine learning Wireless sensor networks IoT Deep learning

The year 2022 marks the 100th birth anniversary of Kathleen Hylda Valerie Booth, who wrote the first assembly language and designed the assembler and auto code for the first computer systems at Birkbeck College, University of London. She helped design three different machines including the ARC (Automatic Relay Calculator), SEC (Simple Electronic Computer), and APE(X). School of Computer Science and Engineering, under the aegis of Lovely Professional University, pays homage to this great programmer of all times by hosting “BOOTH100”—6th International Conference on Computing Sciences.
