This special issue belongs to the section “Internet of Things (IoT)“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide insight regarding the most innovative contributions to the application of big data analytics and mobile cloud computing in the area of the Internet of Things. The development of the Internet of Things (IoT) is advancing rapidly and that has led to the connection of millions of devices via the internet. Big data comprises high-volume, high-velocity, and/or high-variety information assets that require new forms of processing to enable enhanced decision making, insight discovery and process optimization. Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is an emergent paradigm that attends to the deployment of mobile applications and services in a collaborative manner across multiple clouds.
