This book presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Computing Networks, Big Data and IoT [ICCBI 2019], held on December 19–20, 2019 at the Vaigai College of Engineering, Madurai, India. Recent years have witnessed the intertwining development of the Internet of Things and big data, which are increasingly deployed in computer network architecture. As society becomes smarter, it is critical to replace the traditional technologies with modern ICT architectures. In this context, the Internet of Things connects smart objects through the Internet and as a result generates big data. This has led to new computing facilities being developed to derive intelligent decisions in the big data environment. The book covers a variety of topics, including information management, mobile computing and applications, emerging IoT applications, distributed communication networks, cloud computing, and healthcare big data. It also discusses security and privacy issues, network intrusion detection, cryptography, 5G/6G networks, social network analysis, artificial intelligence, human–machine interaction, smart home and smart city applications.

Grasping in Robotics contains original contributions in the field of grasping in robotics with a broad multidisciplinary approach. This gives the possibility of addressing all the major issues related to robotized grasping, including milestones in grasping through the centuries, mechanical design issues, control issues, modelling achievements and issues, formulations and software for simulation purposes, sensors and vision integration, applications in industrial field and non-conventional applications (including service robotics and agriculture). The contributors to this book are experts in their own diverse and wide ranging fields. This multidisciplinary approach can help make Grasping in Robotics of interest to a very wide audience. In particular, it can be a useful reference book for researchers, students and users in the wide field of grasping in robotics from many different disciplines including mechanical design, hardware design, control design, user interfaces, modelling, simulation, sensors and humanoid robotics. It could even be adopted as a reference textbook in specific PhD courses.

Research on humanoid robots has been mostly with the aim of developing robots that can replace humans in the performance of certain tasks. Motion planning for these robots can be quite difficult, due to their complex kinematics, dynamics and environment. It is consequently one of the key research topics in humanoid robotics research and the last few years have witnessed considerable progress in the field. Motion Planning for Humanoid Robots surveys the remarkable recent advancement in both the theoretical and the practical aspects of humanoid motion planning. Various motion planning frameworks are presented in Motion Planning for Humanoid Robots, including one for skill coordination and learning, and one for manipulating and grasping tasks. The problem of planning sequences of contacts that support acyclic motion in a highly constrained environment is addressed and a motion planner that enables a humanoid robot to push an object to a desired location on a cluttered table is described. The main areas of interest include: • whole body motion planning, • task planning, • biped gait planning, and • sensor feedback for motion planning. Torque-level control of multi-contact behavior, autonomous manipulation of moving obstacles, and movement control and planning architecture are also covered. Motion Planning for Humanoid Robots will help readers to understand the current research on humanoid motion planning. It is written for industrial engineers, advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students.
