With the help of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data analytics, the internet of things (IoT) is creating partnerships within industry where machines, processes, and humans communicate with one another. As this radically changes traditional industrial operations, this results in the rapid design, cheap manufacture, and effective customization of products. Answering the growing demand of customers and their preferences has become a challenge for such partnerships.

Industrial Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems: Transforming the Conventional to Digital is a collection of innovative research that discusses development, implementation, and business impacts of IoT technologies on sustainable societal development and improved life quality. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as green technologies, wireless networks, and IoT policy, this book is ideally designed for technology developers, entrepreneurs, industrialists, programmers, engineers, technicians, researchers, academicians, and students.
