This book introduces readers to the fundamentals of the IEC 62559 Use Case Methodology, explains how it is related to the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM), and details how a holistic view for both architecture and requirements engineering can be achieved. It describes a standardized and holistic approach to requirements engineering for smart grid projects based on work conducted in the context of the EU M/490 standardization mandate. Over the last years, this method has been established in Europe as the basic building block of requirements engineering in the utilities sector. The authors present a canonical, structured approach that users can apply to the Use Case Methodology and the SGAM, as well as open tools for this purpose. The application in various domains outside the smart grid is also discussed, as it can be used for critical infrastructures or system-of-systems domains like Industrie 4.0 and Ambient Assisted Living. Accordingly, the book also presents various architecture models for different fields of application, like EMAM, SCIAM, RAMI 4.0, and MAF.

As innovators continue to explore and create new developments within the fields of artificial intelligence and computer science, subfields such as machine learning and the internet of things (IoT) have emerged. Now, the internet of everything (IoE), foreseen as a cohesive and intelligent connection of people, processes, data, and things, is theorized to make internet connections more valuable by converting information into wise actions that create unprecedented capabilities, richer experiences, and economic opportunities to all players in the market. Harnessing the Internet of Everything (IoE) for Accelerated Innovation Opportunities discusses the theoretical, design, evaluation, implementation, and use of innovative technologies within the fields of IoE, machine learning, and IoT. Featuring research on topics such as low-power electronics, mobile technology, and artificial intelligence, this book is ideally designed for computer engineers, software developers, investigators, advanced-level students, professors, and professionals seeking coverage on the various contemporary theories, technologies, and tools in IoE engineering.

Ambient Assisted Living and Enhanced Living Environments: Principles, Technologies and Control separates the theoretical concepts concerning the design of such systems from their real-world implementations. For each important topic, the book bridges theory and practice, introducing the instruments needed by professionals in their activities. To this aim, topics are presented in a logical sequence, with the introduction of each topic motivated by the need to respond to claims and requirements from a wide range of AAL/ELE applications. The advantages and limitations of each model or technology are presented through concrete case studies for AAL/ELE systems. The book also presents up-to-date technological solutions to the main aspects regarding AAL/ELE systems and applications, a highly dynamic scientific domain that has gained much interest in the world of IT in the last decade. In addition, readers will find discussions on recent AAL/ELE technologies that were designed to solve some of the thorniest business problems that affect applications in areas such as health and medical supply, smart city and smart housing, Big Data and Internet of Things, and many more. - Introduces readers to technologies supporting the development of Ambient Assisted Living applications - Explains state-of-the-art technological solutions for the main issues regarding AAL and Enhanced Living Environments - Reports the development process of scientific and commercial applications and platforms that support AAL and ELE - Identifies the advanced solutions in the context of Enhanced Living Environments

This open access book was prepared as a Final Publication of the COST Action IC1303 “Algorithms, Architectures and Platforms for Enhanced Living Environments (AAPELE)”. The concept of Enhanced Living Environments (ELE) refers to the area of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) that is more related with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Effective ELE solutions require appropriate ICT algorithms, architectures, platforms, and systems, having in view the advance of science and technology in this area and the development of new and innovative solutions that can provide improvements in the quality of life for people in their homes and can reduce the financial burden on the budgets of the healthcare providers. The aim of this book is to become a state-of-the-art reference, discussing progress made, as well as prompting future directions on theories, practices, standards, and strategies related to the ELE area. The book contains 12 chapters and can serve as a valuable reference for undergraduate students, post-graduate students, educators, faculty members, researchers, engineers, medical doctors, healthcare organizations, insurance companies, and research strategists working in this area.

The term IoT, which was first proposed by Kevin Ashton, a British technologist, in 1999 has the potential to impact everything from new product opportunities to shop floor optimization to factory worker efficiency gains, that will power top-line and bottom-line gains. As IoT technology is being put to diversified use, the current technology needs to be improved to enhance privacy and built secure devices by adopting a security-focused approach, reducing the amount of data collected, increasing transparency and providing consumers with a choice to opt out. Therefore, the current volume has been compiled, in an effort to draw the various issues in IoT, challenges faced and existing solutions so far. Key Points: • Provides an overview of basic concepts and technologies of IoT with communication technologies ranging from 4G to 5G and its architecture. • Discusses recent security and privacy studies and social behavior of human beings over IoT. • Covers the issues related to sensors, business model, principles, paradigms, green IoT and solutions to handle relevant challenges. • Presents the readers with practical ideas of using IoT, how it deals with human dynamics, the ecosystem, the social objects and their relation. • Deals with the challenges involved in surpassing diversified architecture, protocol, communications, integrity and security.
