Algorithms for Smart World Technologies

Introduction

This book is intended as a text/reference for aspiring learners who want a detailed insight into algorithms that are building blocks of the Smart World. Starting from the efficiency measures, we discuss advanced notions of complexities, which are required to measure the new-generation algorithms of the Smart World followed by detailed description of underlying algorithms used in smart world development and contemporary applications. The book presents the analysis, algorithms, and applications of greatest interest to the current practitioner of smart world technologies, along with references of supporting projects and background material. It also provides a comprehensive source from which to learn smart world technologies, serving both students and instructors. In addition, the rigorous treatment, breadth, and extensive bibliographic material should make it an important reference for research professionals.

Our goal is to assimilate the existing algorithms behind the development of smart world applications into one consistent, self-contained volume accessible to engineers in practice, to computer scientists and data scientists in academia, and to motivated non-specialists with a strong desire to learn smart world technologies. Such a task is beyond the scope of each of the overlapping research domains, which by nature focus on narrow topics using very specialized terminology. Our intent is to provide a detailed representation of those workhorse algorithms in a standard ...
