This book provides an account of the latest developments in IoT and cloud computing, and their practical applications in various industrial, scientific, business, education, and government domains. The book covers the advanced research and state of the art review of the latest developments in IoT and cloud computing. The book also identifies challenges and their solutions in this era, shaping the direction for future research and offering emerging topics to investigate further. The book editors are pioneers in the fields of IoT and Cloud computing.

In the present time world, organisations are implementing innovative ways to continue business by facilitating work from home and avoiding contact using the Internet of Things (IoT) for remote monitoring. Schools and other educational institutions are implementing e-learning, and hospitals and health organisations are implementing e-medicine and remote patient monitoring via the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). Online shopping, contactless delivery and virtual social events are becoming popular. Authorities are using sensors for contact tracing, traffic control and safety. Secure and reliable cloud infrastructure availability made these applications possible.

Cloud computing and IoT are becoming ever more essential in our lives. Cloud computing provides relevant, on-demand and flexible network connectivity, allowing users to contribute computing resources that integrate dynamic data from many sources. On the other hand, IoT enables thousands of devices to connect and communicate with one another, exchanging information, knowledge and data to improve the quality of our lives. Computing tasks are carried out on fog or cloud machines (physical or virtual) capable of robust data analytics, deep learning and blockchain mining.

However, IoT and cloud-based applications face security, privacy, reliability, scalability, quality of service, sustainability, performance, user experience, energy efficiency, power requirements, management, integration, compatibility, interoperability, vendor lock-in, maintenance, compliance and ethical issues.

This book aims to present the latest developments in cloud computing and IoT paradigms, including technology, infrastructure, architecture, protocols, and practical applications and solutions to the above challenges. The book also identifies potential future research directions and new upcoming issues. We expect the book to serve as a reference for practitioners, developers, policymakers, academicians, researchers and students.
