This book highlights state-of-the-art research on big data and the Internet of Things (Io T), along with related areas to ensure efficient and Internet-compatible Io T systems. It not only discusses big data security and privacy challenges, but also energy-efficient approaches to improving virtual machine placement in cloud computing environments.
Big data and the Internet of Things (Io T) are ultimately two sides of the same coin, yet extracting, analyzing and managing Io T data poses a serious challenge. Accordingly, proper analytics infrastructures/platforms should be used to analyze Io T data. Information technology (IT) allows people to upload, retrieve, store and collect information, which ultimately forms big data. The use of big data analytics has grown tremendously in just the past few years. At the same time, the Io T has entered the public consciousness, sparking people’s imaginations as to what a fully connected world can offer.
Further, the book discusses the analysis of real-time big data to derive actionable intelligence in enterprise applications in several domains, such as in industry and agriculture. It explores possible automated solutions in daily life, including structures for smart cities and automated home systems based on Io T technology, as well as health care systems that manage large amounts of data (big data) to improve clinical decisions.
The book addresses the security and privacy of the Io T and big data technologies, while also revealing the impact of Io T technologies on several scenarios in smart cities design. Intended as a comprehensive introduction, it offers in-depth analysis and provides scientists, engineers and professionals the latest techniques, frameworks and strategies used in Io T and big data technologies.
