Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has led to enormous volumes of data being generated by interconnected devices. Fog, cloud, and edge computing have emerged as crucial paradigms with which to efficiently handle, process, and analyze this vast amount of data. It also involves optimizing applications through Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision. The current Special Issue aims to explore the academic and industry-based advancements, challenges, and innovations in leveraging fog, cloud, and edge computing within the IoT ecosystem using intelligent and secure techniques.
This Special Issue seeks original research, review articles, and case studies addressing, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Internet of Things and Industry 5.0;
- Architecture and frameworks for integrating fog, cloud, and edge computing in IoT;
- Edge intelligence, Blockchain, and analytics for IoT applications;
- Security and privacy considerations in fog, cloud, and edge environments;
- Resource management and optimization in distributed IoT systems;
- Edge-to-cloud communication protocols and standards;
- Machine learning, Deep Learning, Reinforcement Learning, and AI at the edge for IoT devices;
- Edge-based data processing and real-time decision-making;
- Scalability and reliability challenges in fog and edge computing for IoT;
- Use cases, applications, and experimental deployments in real-world scenarios.
