Swarm Intelligence for Resource Management in Internet of Things [EPUB ebook] 

Internet of Things (Io T) is a new platform of various physical objects or "things equipped with sensors, electronics, smart devices, software, and network connections. Io T represents a new revolution of the Internet network which is driven by the recent advances of technologies such as sensor networks (wearable and implantable), mobile devices, networking, and cloud computing technologies. Io T permits these the smart devices to collect, store and analyze the collected data with limited storage and processing capacities. Swarm Intelligence for Resource Management in the Internet of Things presents a new approach in Artificial Intelligence that can be used for resources management in Io T, which is considered a critical issue for this network. The authors demonstrate these resource management applications using swarm intelligence techniques. Currently, Io T can be used in many important applications which include healthcare, smart cities, smart homes, smart hospitals, environment monitoring, and video surveillance. Io T devices cannot perform complex on-site data processing due to their limited battery and processing. However, the major processing unit of an application can be transmitted to other nodes, which are more powerful in terms of storage and processing. By applying swarm intelligence algorithms for Io T devices, we can provide major advantages for energy saving in Io T devices. Swarm Intelligence for Resource Management in the Internet of Things shows the reader how to overcome the problems and challenges of creating and implementing swarm intelligence algorithms for each application- Examines the development and application of swarm intelligence systems in artificial intelligence as applied to the Internet of Things- Discusses intelligent techniques for the implementation of swarm intelligence in Io T- Prepared for researchers and specialists who are interested in the use and integration of Io T and cloud computing technologies
