The book includes insights that reflect the advances in the field of Internet of Things from upcoming researchers and leading academicians across the globe.

The volume contains latest research work presented at International Conference on Computing and Communication Systems (I3CS 2016) held at North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, India.

The book provides insights of World Conference on Smart Trends in Systems, Security and Sustainability (WS4 2017) which is divided into different sections such as Smart IT Infrastructure for Sustainable Society;

This book provides security analyses of several Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) applications using Microsoft's threat modeling framework STRIDE. Before deploying new technologies in the production environment, their security aspects must be considered.

This book introduces readers to selected issues in distributed systems, and primarily focuses on principles, not on technical details. Though the systems discussed are based on existing (von Neumann) computer architectures, the book also touches on emerging processing paradigms.

This book presents cutting-edge work on real-time modelling and processing, a highly active research field in both the research and industrial domains.

Taking advantage of the growing power of the microprocessor makes the complexity of renewable energy systems accessible, especially since the algorithms of artificial intelligence make it possible to take relevant decisions or even reveal unsuspected trends in the management and optimization of renewable energy flows.

This book reports on cutting-edge theories and methods for analyzing complex systems, such as transportation and communication networks and discusses multi-disciplinary approaches to dependability problems encountered when dealing with complex systems in practice.
