This book aims to deliver a platform of scientific interaction between the three interwoven challenging areas of research and development of future ICT-enabled applications: software intensive systems, complex systems and intelligent systems. Software intensive systems are systems, which heavily interact with other systems, sensors, actuators, devices, other software systems and users. More and more domains are involved with software intensive systems, e.g., automotive, telecommunication systems, embedded systems in general, industrial automation systems and business applications. Moreover, the outcome of web services delivers a new platform for enabling software intensive systems. Complex systems research is focused on the overall understanding of systems rather than its components. Complex systems are very much characterized by the changing environments in which they act by their multiple internal and external interactions. They evolve and adapt through internal and external dynamic interactions. The development of intelligent systems and agents, which is each time more characterized by the use of ontologies and their logical foundations, builds a fruitful impulse for both software intensive systems and complex systems. Recent research in the field of intelligent systems, robotics, neuroscience, artificial intelligence and cognitive sciences are very important factor for the future development and innovation of software intensive and complex systems.

In an increasingly globalised world, despite reductions in costs and time, transportation has become even more important as a facilitator of economic and human interaction; this is reflected in technical advances in transportation systems, increasing interest in how transportation interacts with society and the need to provide novel approaches to understanding its impacts. This has become particularly acute with the impact that Covid-19 has had on transportation across the world, at local, national and international levels. Encyclopedia of Transportation, Seven Volume Set - containing almost 600 articles - brings a cross-cutting and integrated approach to all aspects of transportation from a variety of interdisciplinary fields including engineering, operations research, economics, geography and sociology in order to understand the changes taking place. Emphasising the interaction between these different aspects of research, it offers new solutions to modern-day problems related to transportation. Each of its nine sections is based around familiar themes, but brings together the views of experts from different disciplinary perspectives. Each section is edited by a subject expert who has commissioned articles from a range of authors representing different disciplines, different parts of the world and different social perspectives. The nine sections are structured around the following themes: Transport Modes; Freight Transport and Logistics; Transport Safety and Security; Transport Economics; Traffic Management; Transport Modelling and Data Management; Transport Policy and Planning; Transport Psychology; Sustainability and Health Issues in Transportation. Some articles provide a technical introduction to a topic whilst others provide a bridge between topics or a more future-oriented view of new research areas or challenges. The end result is a reference work that offers researchers and practitioners new approaches, new ways of thinking and novel solutions to problems. All-encompassing and expertly authored, this outstanding reference work will be essential reading for all students and researchers interested in transportation and its global impact in what is a very uncertain world. Provides a forward looking and integrated approach to transportation Updated with future technological impacts, such as self-driving vehicles, cyber-physical systems and big data analytics Includes comprehensive coverage Presents a worldwide approach, including sets of comparative studies and applications

The revolution in healthcare as well as demand for efficient real-time healthcare services are driving the progression of edge computing, AI-mediated techniques, deep learning, and IoT applications for healthcare industries and cloud computing. Edge computing helps to meet the demand for newer and more sophisticated healthcare systems that are more personalized and that match the speed of modern life. With applications of edge computing, automated intelligence and intuitions are incorporated into existing healthcare analysis tools for identifying, forecasting, and preventing high-risk diseases. Reconnoitering the Landscape of Edge Intelligence in Healthcare provides comprehensive research on edge intelligence technology with the emphasis on application in the healthcare industry. It covers all the various areas of edge intelligence for data analysis in healthcare, looking at the emerging technologies such as AI-based techniques, machine learning, IoT, cloud computing, and deep learning with illustrations of the design, implementation, and management of smart and intelligent healthcare systems. Chapters showcase the advantages and highlights of the adoption of the intelligent edge models toward smart healthcare infrastructure. The book also addresses the increased need for a high level of medical data security while transferring real-time data to cloud-based architecture, a matter of prime concern for both patient and doctor. Topics include edge intelligence for wearable sensor technologies and their applications for health monitoring, the various edge computing techniques for disease prediction, e-health services and e-security solutions through IoT devices that aim to improve the quality of care for transgender patients, smart technology in ambient assisted living, the role of edge intelligence in limiting virus spread during pandemics, neuroscience in decoding and analysis of visual perception from the neural patterns and visual image reconstruction, and more. The technology addressed include energy aware cross-layer routing protocol (ECRP), OMKELM-IDS technique, graphical user interface (GUI), IOST (an ultra-fast, decentralized blockchain platform), etc. This volume will be helpful to engineering students, research scholars, and manufacturing industry professionals in the fields of engineering applications initiatives on AI, machine learning, and deep learning techniques for edge computing.
