Big Data Analytics for Internet of Marine Things

This book provides an overview of approaches to determining the architectures of network underwater and marine communication systems based on the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT). Additionally, this book provides a comprehensive study of Internet of Marine Things (IoMarT) applications, challenges, and architectures. The main contributions of this book are summarized as follows: Introducing potential IoMarT applications; pointing out the challenges of IoMarT (i.e., the differences between IoMarT and IoT; and analyzing the IoMarT system architecture). The book covers applications such as autonomous underwater vehicles, remotely operated vehicles, active and passive marine sensors, buoys, underwater sonar stations, coastal communication posts, and other elements of the platform.
