>> The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has been introduced to 
>> characterize smart objects that can communicate and exchange 
>> information via the existing Web infrastructure, as well as future 5G 
>> mobile networking architectures. Cloud-based IoT mechanisms are 
>> utilized to enable the interconnection of a variety of smart objects, 
>> such as, cars, cell phones and sensors inside smart cities, smart 
>> businesses and smart home environments. IoT based objects produce a 
>> vast volume of information frequently called as Big Data, which 
>> cannot be easily processed by traditional algorithms and schemes. 
>> However, future smart environments will enable efficient handling and 
>> processing of Big Data that is generated by the associated objects 
>> for an effective communication and co-operation among them. In any 
>> case, there is profoundly helpful data and many values in trying to 
>> analyze, as well as process it. IoT-based objects have an increased 
>> consideration from researchers in several scientific fields and 
>> disciplines.
>>
>> In addition, Artificial Intelligence (AI) will play a crucial role in 
>> such environments, enabling for smarter services, applications, 
>> business processes and social interaction among the IoT objects. In 
>> this respect, a great potential exists for advanced technological 
>> solutions combined with AI and IoT-enabled capabilities. AI 
>> mechanisms applied in IoT environments can be exploited in smart 
>> homes to analyze human actions via motion or facial recognition 
>> sensors. AI will play a significant role in future IoT applications 
>> and infrastructures, by providing insights from collected data. This 
>> capability will enable the identification of patterns and will allow 
>> operational predictions with higher accuracy in small time periods. 
>> AI applications for smart devices will also enable businesses to 
>> develop new products, reduce possible risks and increase efficiency 
>> during the production time, by predicting failures that are usually 
>> non-detectable by humans or simple devices.
>>
>> The future of the implementation of AI-powered IoT infrastructures 
>> depends on the effective solutions to a number of technical 
>> challenges that such paradigms introduce. These challenges include 
>> intelligent sensor capabilities improvement, smart Big Data 
>> analytics, automated remote data management, as well as open and 
>> secure composition of processes, which may be implemented into 
>> emerging AI-enabled IoT scenarios. Some initiatives try to 
>> incorporate Artificial Intelligence schemes in IoT environments, but 
>> new frameworks have to be defined. In fact, the approach of IoT is to 
>> find the potential benefits of AI, in order to build extensive 
>> ecosystems, for increasing the number of automated services and their 
>> value. In this respect, this book aims to gather recent research 
>> works in emerging Artificial Intelligence methods for processing and 
>> storing the data generated from cloud-based Internet of Things 
>> infrastructures. The major subjects of the proposed book will cover 
>> the analysis and the development of AI-powered mechanisms in future 
>> IoT applications and architectures.
