"This book provides explanations of concepts, processes and acronyms related to different areas, issues and trends in various areas of wireless technologies for ambient assisted living and healthcare, focusing on emerging wireless technologies and innovative wireless solutions for smart home environments"--Provided by publisher.

This book presents the state of the art of Internet of Things (IoT) from the perspective of healthcare and Ambient Assisted Living (AAL). It discusses the emerging technologies in healthcare services used for healthcare professionals and patients for enhanced living environments and public health. The topics covered in this book include emerging eHealth IoT applications, Internet of Medical Things, health sensors, and wearable sensors for pervasive and personalized healthcare, and smart homes applications for enhanced health and well-being. The book also presents various ideas for the design and development of IoT solutions for healthcare and AAL. It will be useful for bioengineers and professionals working in the areas of healthcare as well as health informatics.

"This book explores the developments and challenges associated with the successful deployment of e-healthcare systems, including pervasive wireless communications, wearable computing, context-awareness, sensor data fusion, artificial intelligence, neural networks, expert systems, databases, and security"--Provided by publisher.

This open access book was prepared as a Final Publication of the COST Action IC1303 “Algorithms, Architectures and Platforms for Enhanced Living Environments (AAPELE)”. The concept of Enhanced Living Environments (ELE) refers to the area of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) that is more related with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Effective ELE solutions require appropriate ICT algorithms, architectures, platforms, and systems, having in view the advance of science and technology in this area and the development of new and innovative solutions that can provide improvements in the quality of life for people in their homes and can reduce the financial burden on the budgets of the healthcare providers. The aim of this book is to become a state-of-the-art reference, discussing progress made, as well as prompting future directions on theories, practices, standards, and strategies related to the ELE area. The book contains 12 chapters and can serve as a valuable reference for undergraduate students, post-graduate students, educators, faculty members, researchers, engineers, medical doctors, healthcare organizations, insurance companies, and research strategists working in this area.

As innovators continue to explore and create new developments within the fields of artificial intelligence and computer science, subfields such as machine learning and the internet of things (IoT) have emerged. Now, the internet of everything (IoE), foreseen as a cohesive and intelligent connection of people, processes, data, and things, is theorized to make internet connections more valuable by converting information into wise actions that create unprecedented capabilities, richer experiences, and economic opportunities to all players in the market. Harnessing the Internet of Everything (IoE) for Accelerated Innovation Opportunities discusses the theoretical, design, evaluation, implementation, and use of innovative technologies within the fields of IoE, machine learning, and IoT. Featuring research on topics such as low-power electronics, mobile technology, and artificial intelligence, this book is ideally designed for computer engineers, software developers, investigators, advanced-level students, professors, and professionals seeking coverage on the various contemporary theories, technologies, and tools in IoE engineering.

Information and Communication Technologies hold great potential in facilitating public services; however, one of the main problems in applying ICT systems successfully lies in users’ behavior. Before ICT can be fully assimilated into the public domain, it will first be necessary to successfully conciliate users to their adoption. ICT Adoption and Application in the Malaysian Public Sector aims to resolve the difficulties in applying practical ICT systems within the public sphere, thoroughly addressing disparities in ICT theory, user attitudes, and the underlying factors that hinder the full adoption of ICT systems. This publication is a valuable resource for policymakers, software developers, policy analysts, academic researchers, and students interested in the field of ICT.

Food security is essential to the advancement and development of economies and societies worldwide. The promotion of viable food structures is the most effective method of promoting food security. Food Systems Sustainability and Environmental Policies in Modern Economies is a relevant research publication that explores the importance of viable food structures as well as the critical positive impact these viable structures have on food security, nutrition, and poverty. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as irrigation schemes, agricultural input subsidies, and food cycles, this publication is geared toward professionals, researchers, and students seeking current research on viable food structures and their impact on society.
