In traditional Internet of Things (IoT) systems, sensor nodes are usually powered by batteries, and their limited battery power leads to limited system lifetimes and prevents the large-scale promotion of IoT; this is commonly referred to as the energy bottleneck. The subsequent emergence of Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) technology enables IoT nodes to replenish their energy through wireless charging, giving rise to the novel network paradigm of Wireless Rechargeable Sensor Networks (WRSNs). This has made it possible to solve the IoT energy bottleneck and extend IoT system lifetimes. This book elaborates on the theory and technical paradigms of WRSNs. The topics discussed include the energy efficiency, schedulability and reliability of WRSNs, as well as their potential intersections with other fields. Specifically, this book 1) proposes the theory of optimal scheduling of spatio-temporal correlation power supply for large-scale WRSNs; 2) analyses in depth the shortcomings and hidden risks of existing WRSN hardware and protocols, and proposes the concept of charging attack and the theory of trusted scheduling; and 3) introduces a radio electromagnetic signal propagation model into the design of charging deployment methods in complex environments, revealing a new dimension of charging efficiency optimization.

The fields of Data Science and analytics are always evolving. By understanding and navigating the data-driven revolution, advancements can be made in domains such as healthcare, finance, education, and more. Harnessing the power of data in decision-making and problem-solving across industries, industries may advance their methods of data collection, data visualization, and predictive modeling. As such, it is important to stay abreast of the latest developments, methodologies, and trends in data-driven research. Typically, data professionals create visualizations to display the data to a specific audience or for their own purpose. They make use of the selected programming languages' and tools' visualization libraries. Researchers and data scientists often employ proprietary technologies for complex statistical analysis or freely available programming languages like Python. Visualizations help academics and data scientists comprehend data sets better and see developments or patterns that they might have missed otherwise. There are several Python modules available for data visualisation, including Matplotlib, Seaborn, Plotly, and others.

In a world where cybersecurity threats evolve daily, it's time to leave traditional, flawed security models behind. This book introduces a groundbreaking approach that applies the quantum principle of superposition to user authentication. Just as a particle exists in multiple states until observed, a user's presence on a network remains undefined until their Digital ID is verified. Once verified, their identity collapses into a single truth--eliminating any risk of impersonation or fraud. This book demonstrates how Digital IDs transform the very foundation of network security. Unlike conventional methods, where user identity is indirectly represented through data, this model ties a user's existence directly to their Digital ID. By securing user presence--and absence--this new authentication model offers unparalleled protection from unauthorized access and common cyber threats like stolen credentials or malicious impersonation. This book is written primarily for cybersecurity professionals such as CISOs, CTOs, CIOs, network architects, and IT security managers.
