Industry 4.0 is used interchangeably with the fourth industrial revolution and represents a new stage in the organization asnd control of the industrial value chain. Cyber-physical systems form the basis of industry 4.0 (e.g., 'smart machines'). They use modern control systems, have embedded software systems, can be addressed via IoT (the Internet of Things), and may use extensive data analytics and/or articifical inteligence systems to operate autonomously. The aim of this book is to provide detailed insights into the state of art techniques in AI, IoT, Blockchain technology and associated technologies which play a vital role in the implementation of a successful project for upcoming and practicing engineers. Owing to its multidisciplinary nature, Industry 4.0 is not a single topic but a combination of a multitude of technologies from different domains. Keeping this in mind the book includes the following topics: Artificial intelligence Internet of things Blockchain technology Digital manufacturing Robotics Cybersecurity The book will be a comprehensive guide to academicians and engineers who want to align with recent trends of fourth industrial revolution.

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit the global at a colossal scale. With worldwide reported cases of 5.34 million it has led to severe impact on humanity. Being a highly contagious disease, it has given global health services their most severe challenge. Various countries are fighting to minimize the losses due to the outbreak, however a common trait is enforcing lockdown, which has become the main defence mechanism. Researchers are working around the clock to find a breakthrough in the diagnostics and treatment of the pandemic. AI technology is useful for fast drug development and treatment. In the starting phase of COVID-19 pandemic, the medical fraternity in China diagnosed the virus using computed tomography (CT) and X-ray images due to the limitation of testing kits. Deep learning neural network model have also been used for COVID-19 diagnosis. AI assisted intelligent humanoid robots can be used to reduce the human contact and spread of COVID-19. In Italy robots have been used for measuring blood pressure, oxygen saturation and temperature of patients. Robots have also found applications in disinfecting and sterilizing of public places, COVID-19 testing, food and medicine delivery as well as entertaining patients in hospitals and quarantine centers, thereby reducing the workload of doctors and nurses. Prediction of the spread of virus and providing the guidelines or prevention measures is another AI application in COVID-19. Kaggle and GitHub are the two websites where the real-time data of COVID-19 is aggregated. This includes confirmed cases, active cases, cured cases and deaths in each country. This data set can be used for predicting the active cases across different regions of the world so that appropriate amount of health infrastructure can be made available to these places.

This book focuses on artifi cial intelligence in the field of digital signal processing and wireless communication. The implementation of machine learning and deep learning in audio, image, and video processing is presented, while adaptive signal processing and biomedical signal processing are also explored through DL algorithms, as well as 5G and green communication. Finally, metaheuristic algorithms of related mathematical problems are explored.
