The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has been introduced to 
characterize smart objects that can communicate and exchange information 
via the existing Web infrastructure, as well as future 5G mobile 
networking architectures. Cloud-based IoT mechanisms are utilized to 
enable the interconnection of a variety of smart objects, such as, cars, 
cell phones and sensors inside smart cities, smart businesses and smart 
home environments. IoT based objects produce a vast volume of 
information frequently called as Big Data, which cannot be easily 
processed by traditional algorithms and schemes. However, future smart 
environments will enable efficient handling and processing of Big Data 
that is generated by the associated objects for an effective 
communication and co-operation among them. In any case, there is 
profoundly helpful data and many values in trying to analyze, as well as 
process it. IoT-based objects have an increased consideration from 
researchers in several scientific fields and disciplines.

In addition, Artificial Intelligence (AI) will play a crucial role in 
such environments, enabling for smarter services, applications, business 
processes and social interaction among the IoT objects. In this respect, 
a great potential exists for advanced technological solutions combined 
with AI and IoT-enabled capabilities. AI mechanisms applied in IoT 
environments can be exploited in smart homes to analyze human actions 
via motion or facial recognition sensors. AI will play a significant 
role in future IoT applications and infrastructures, by providing 
insights from collected data. This capability will enable the 
identification of patterns and will allow operational predictions with 
higher accuracy in small time periods. AI applications for smart devices 
will also enable businesses to develop new products, reduce possible 
risks and increase efficiency during the production time, by predicting 
failures that are usually non-detectable by humans or simple devices.

The future of the implementation of AI-powered IoT infrastructures 
depends on the effective solutions to a number of technical challenges 
that such paradigms introduce. These challenges include intelligent 
sensor capabilities improvement, smart Big Data analytics, automated 
remote data management, as well as open and secure composition of 
processes, which may be implemented into emerging AI-enabled IoT 
scenarios. Some initiatives try to incorporate Artificial Intelligence 
schemes in IoT environments, but new frameworks have to be defined. In 
fact, the approach of IoT is to find the potential benefits of AI, in 
order to build extensive ecosystems, for increasing the number of 
automated services and their value. In this respect, this book aims to 
gather recent research works in emerging Artificial Intelligence methods 
for processing and storing the data generated from cloud-based Internet 
of Things infrastructures. The major subjects of the proposed book will 
cover the analysis and the development of AI-powered mechanisms in 
future IoT applications and architectures.
