This book comprises a number of state-of-the-art contributions from both scientists and practitioners working in a large pool of fields where AI and IoT can open up new horizons. Artificial intelligence and Internet of Things have introduced themselves today as must-have technologies in almost every sector. Ranging from agriculture to industry and health care, the scope of applications of AI and IoT is as wide as the horizon. Nowadays, these technologies are extensively used in developed countries, but they are still at an early stage in emerging countries.

AI and IoT for Sustainable Development in Emerging Countries—Challenges and Opportunities is an invaluable source to dive into the latest applications of AI and IoT and how they have been used by researchers from emerging countries to solve sustainable development-related issues by taking into consideration the specifities of their countries. This book starts by presenting how AI and IoT can tacklethe challenges of sustainable development in general and then focuses on the following axes:

·       AI and IoT for smart environment and energy

·       Industry 4.0 and intelligent transportation

·       A vision towards an artificial intelligence of medical things

·       AI, social media, and big data analytics.

It aspires to provide a relevant reference for students, researchers, engineers, and professionals working in these particular areas or those interested in grasping its diverse facets and exploring the latest advances on their respective fields and the role of AI and IoT in them.

This book is intended to assist in the development of smart and efficient green energy solutions. It introduces energy systems, power generation, and power demands which able to minimise generation costs, power loss or environmental effects. 

It proposes cutting-edge solutions and approaches based on recent technologies such as intelligent renewable energy systems (wind and solar). These solutions, applied to different sectors, can provide a solid basis for meeting the needs of both developed and developing countries.
