Recent developments in soft-computation techniques have paved the way for handling huge volumes of data, thereby bringing about significant changes and technological advancements. This book presents the proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Emerging Current Trends in Computing & Expert Technology (COMET 2020), held at Panimalar Engineering College, Chennai, India on 6 and 7 March 2020. The aim of the book is to disseminate cutting-edge developments taking place in the technological fields of intelligent systems and computer technology, thereby assisting researchers and practitioners from both institutions and industry to upgrade their knowledge of the latest developments and emerging areas of study. It focuses on technological innovations and trendsetting initiatives to improve business values, optimize business processes and enable inclusive growth for corporates, industries and education alike. The book is divided into two sections; ‘Next Generation Soft Computing’ is a platform for scientists, researchers, practitioners and academics to present and discuss their most recent innovations, trends and concerns, as well as the practical challenges encountered in the field. The second section, ‘Evolutionary Networking and Communications’ focuses on various aspects of 5G communications systems and networking, including cloud and virtualization solutions, management technologies, and vertical application areas. It brings together the latest technologies from all over the world, and also provides an excellent international forum for the sharing of knowledge and results from theory, methodology and applications in networking and communications. The book will be of interest to all those working in the fields of intelligent systems and computer technology.

This book contains a selection of refereed and revised papers from three special tracks: Ad-hoc and Wireless Sensor Networks, Intelligent Distributed Computing and, Business Intelligence and Big Data Analytics originally presented at the International Symposium on Intelligent Systems Technologies and Applications (ISTA), August 10-13, 2015, Kochi, India.

Prostheses, assistive systems, and rehabilitation systems are essential to increasing the quality of life for people with disabilities. Research and development over the last decade has resulted in enormous advances toward that goal-none more so than the development of intelligent systems and technologies. In the first truly comprehensive book addressing intelligent technologies for the disabled, top experts from around the world provide an overview of this dynamic, rapidly evolving field. They present state-of-the-art information on the latest, innovative technologies and their applications in various systems designed to better the lives of the disabled. From the underlying principles to the design, practical applications, and assessment of results, Intelligent Systems and Technologies in Rehabilitation Engineering offers broad, pragmatic coverage of the field. It incorporates the most recent advances in sensory and limb prostheses, myoelectric control systems, circulatory systems, assistive technologies, and applications of virtual reality. Rapid progress demands a concerted effort to keep up with the latest developments so they can begin to serve their purpose and improve the lives of the disabled. By incorporating details of the latest and most important advances into one volume, Intelligent Systems and Technologies in Rehabilitation Engineering makes that undertaking essentially effortless.

The book reports on new theories and applications in the field of intelligent systems and computing. It covers computational and artificial intelligence methods, as well as advances in computer vision, current issue in big data and cloud computing, computation linguistics, cyber-physical systems as well as topics in intelligent information management. Written by active researchers, the different chapters are based on contributions presented at the workshop in intelligent systems and computing (ISC), held during CSIT 2016, September 6-9, and jointly organized by the Lviv Polytechnic National University, Ukraine, the Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics, Ukraine, and the Technical University of Lodz, Poland, under patronage of Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine. All in all, the book provides academics and professionals with extensive information and a timely snapshot of the field of intelligent systems, and it is expected to foster new discussions and collaborations among different groups.

Intelligent systems, or artificial intelligence technologies, are playing an increasing role in areas ranging from medicine to the major manufacturing industries to financial markets. The consequences of flawed artificial intelligence systems are equally wide ranging and can be seen, for example, in the programmed trading-driven stock market crash of October 19, 1987. Intelligent Systems: Technology and Applications, Six Volume Set connects theory with proven practical applications to provide broad, multidisciplinary coverage in a single resource. In these volumes, international experts present case-study examples of successful practical techniques and solutions for diverse applications ranging from robotic systems to speech and signal processing, database management, and manufacturing.

The book gathers papers addressing state-of-the-art research in all areas of Information and Communication Technologies and their applications in intelligent computing, cloud storage, data mining and software analysis. It presents the outcomes of the third International Conference on Information and Communication Technology for Intelligent Systems, which was held on April 6–7, 2018, in Ahmedabad, India. Divided into two volumes, the book discusses the fundamentals of various data analytics and algorithms, making it a valuable resource for researchers’ future studies.
