This book gives readers an overview about technologies that are useful for developments related to Smart Cities.Some technologies are already available, such for example, as smart meters for electricity and gas in buildings. But there are possibilities to incorporate existing devices into wider networks with other smart devices that currently operate independently. This in turn will considerably improve the reduction of the energy consumption in buildings, reduction of emission pollutions in cities and improvement of the well-being of people. The other objective of this book is to introduce readers to new technologies which are not yet implemented in areas related to the efficient functioning of cities. For example, areas related to Intelligent Transport Systems are mostly developed for the optimization of the traffic flow, reduction of accidents on roads, improvement of the safety of drivers and related to road transportation problems. The rapid advances in Blockchain technologies are also covered.

This book demonstrates that the reliable and secure communication performance of maritime communications can be significantly improved by using intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) aided communication, privacy-aware Internet of Things (IoT) communications, intelligent resource management and location privacy protection. In the IRS aided maritime communication system, the reflecting elements of IRS can be intelligently controlled to change the phase of signal, and finally enhance the received signal strength of maritime ships (or sensors) or jam maritime eavesdroppers illustrated in this book.The power and spectrum resource in maritime communications can be jointly optimized to guarantee the quality of service (i.e., security and reliability requirements), and reinforcement leaning is adopted to smartly choose the resource allocation strategy. Moreover, learning based privacy-aware offloading and location privacy protection are proposed to intelligently guarantee the privacy-preserving requirements of maritime ships or (sensors). Therefore, these communication schemes based on reinforcement learning algorithms can help maritime communication systems to improve the information security, especially in dynamic and complex maritime environments.This timely book also provides broad coverage of the maritime wireless communication issues, such as reliability, security, resource management, and privacy protection. Reinforcement learning based methods are applied to solve these issues. This book includes four rigorously refereed chapters from prominent international researchers working in this subject area.

This book offers the latest research results in recent development on the principles, techniques and applications in mobile crowdsourcing. It presents state-of-the-art content and provides an in-depth overview of the basic background in this related field. Crowdsourcing involves a large crowd of participants working together to contribute or produce goods and services for the society. The early 21st century applications of crowdsourcing can be called crowdsourcing 1.0, which includes businesses using crowdsourcing to accomplish various tasks, such as the ability to offload peak demand, access cheap labor, generate better results in a timely matter, and reach a wider array of talent outside the organization. Mobile crowdsensing can be described as an extension of crowdsourcing to the mobile network to combine the idea of crowdsourcing with the sensing capacity of mobile devices. As a promising paradigm for completing complex sensing and computationtasks, mobile crowdsensing serves the vital purpose of exploiting the ubiquitous smart devices carried by mobile users to make conscious or unconscious collaboration through mobile networks. Considering that we are in the era of mobile internet, mobile crowdsensing is developing rapidly and has great advantages in deployment and maintenance, sensing range and granularity, reusability, and other aspects. Due to the benefits of using mobile crowdsensing, many emergent applications are now available for individuals, business enterprises, and governments. In addition, many new techniques have been developed and are being adopted. This book will be of value to researchers and students targeting this topic as a reference book. Practitioners, government officials, business organizations and even customers -- working, participating or those interested in fields related to crowdsourcing will also want to purchase this book.
