Book Description
This book presents the design and development of an Internet of Things (IoT) enabled, smart sensor to detect nitrate contamination in natural water. It considers three different sensors designed, fabricated and configured for nitrate detection: a Graphite/PDMS and Si-based MEMS sensors, and aFR4-based sensor. It also introduces a selective polymer material developed by means of the ion imprinting polymerization technique that was used as a coating on the Si-based MEMS sensor. Further, the book discusses the development of a smart sensing system that can be used to remotely monitor the nitrate concentration in any water. Fully explaining all the techniques used, the book is of interest to engineers, researchers and scientists working in the field of the water-quality measurement.

Book Description
Nitrate Handbook: Environmental, Agricultural, and Health Effects provides an overview of the entire nitrate cycle and the processes influencing nitrate transformation. It clearly identifies the role of nitrate as an essential nutrient in plant growth, food preservation, and human health. Using the most up-to-date knowledge and research, this handbook illustrates how the steadily increasing human population and demand for food, which results in higher amounts of nitrate needed by soils, makes new regulations on the management and usage of nitrates a high priority. A detailed explanation concerning the discrepancies between the public’s perception of nitrate’s harm versus the reality of its human health benefits is given via a balanced and evidence-based approach. All questions pertaining to the influences of nitrate and its derivatives on plant physiology and human health are explored in depth. This comprehensive resource with contributions from distinguished researches in the field is a must-have for professionals and students who study and work with nitrates. Features: Includes in depth discussion on the wide spectrum of nitrate present in the environment. Focuses on the progress made on nitrate research and its importance. Answers all questions about nitrate and its derivatives’ influences on plant physiology and human health. Enables decision makers and public authorities to manage social concerns Compiles in one resource the findings of many distinguished researchers in the field.

Book Description
This book covers the relationship of recent technologies (such as Blockchain, IoT, and 5G) with the cloud computing as well as fog computing, and mobile edge computing. The relationship will not be limited to only architecture proposal, trends, and technical advancements. However, the book also explores the possibility of predictive analytics in cloud computing with respect to Blockchain, IoT, and 5G. The recent advancements in the internet-supported distributed computing i.e. cloud computing, has made it possible to process the bulk amount of data in a parallel and distributed. This has made it a lucrative technology to process the data generated from technologies such as Blockchain, IoT, and 5G. However, there are several issues a Cloud Service Provider (CSP) encounters, such as Blockchain security in cloud, IoT elasticity and scalability management in cloud, Service Level Agreement (SLA) compliances for 5G, Resource management, Load balancing, and Fault-tolerance. This edited book will discuss the aforementioned issues in connection with Blockchain, IoT, and 5G. Moreover, the book discusses how the cloud computing is not sufficient and one needs to use fog computing, and edge computing to efficiently process the data generated from IoT, and 5G. Moreover, the book shows how smart city, smart healthcare system, and smart communities are few of the most relevant IoT applications where fog computing plays a significant role. The book discusses the limitation of fog computing and the need for the edge computing to further reduce the network latency to process streaming data from IoT devices. The book also explores power of predictive analytics of Blockchain, IoT, and 5G data in cloud computing with its sister technologies. Since, the amount of resources increases day-by day, artificial intelligence (AI) tools are becoming more popular due to their capability which can be used in solving wide variety of issues, such as minimize the energy consumption of physical servers, optimize the service cost, improve the quality of experience, increase the service availability, efficiently handle the huge data flow, manages the large number of IoT devices, etc.

Book Description
This book contributes to the debate about the suitability and challenges of the Smart Water Management (SWM) approach. Smart Water Management has increasingly been promoted to manage water and wastewater more efficiently and cost effectively by industries and utilities in urban contexts at regional or city scales, while reducing overall consumption. It is based on the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to provide real-time, automated data to resolve water challenges. Many of these technologies are complex and costly, however, and the approach tends to overlook cheaper and less high-tech (softer) approaches to address the same problems. Yet there may be opportunities for using them even in resource short rural communities in developing countries. The book includes examples of SWM systems in practice in diverse locations from Korea, Mexico, Paris, the Canary Islands and southern Africa, aimed at addressing a diverse set of problems, including monitoring water supply to refugees. Critical voices highlight the need for smart institutions to accompany smart technologies, the absurdity of applying SWM to dysfunctional legacy infrastructure systems, whether its adoption raises moral hazards, and whether SWM is the latest example of hegemonic masculinity in water management. The chapters in this book were originally published in Water International.
