The field of SMART technologies is an interdependent discipline. It
involves the latest burning issues ranging from machine learning,
cloud computing, optimisations, modelling techniques, Internet of
Things, data analytics, and Smart Grids among others, that are all
new fields. It is an applied and multi-disciplinary subject with a
focus on Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic & Timely
system operations combined with Machine intelligence &
Real-Time computing. It is not possible for any one person to
comprehensively cover all aspects relevant to SMART Computing in a
limited-extent work. Therefore, these conference proceedings
address various issues through the deliberations by distinguished
Professors and researchers. The SMARTCOM 2020 proceedings contain
tracks dedicated to different areas of smart technologies such as
Smart System and Future Internet, Machine Intelligence and Data
Science, Real-Time and VLSI Systems, Communication and Automation
Systems. The proceedings can be used as an advanced reference for
research and for courses in smart technologies taught at graduate
level.

This book presents practical as well as conceptual insights into
the latest trends, tools, techniques and methodologies of
blockchains for the Internet of Things. The decentralised Internet
of Things (IoT) not only reduces infrastructure costs, but also
provides a standardised peer-to-peer communication model for
billions of transactions. However, there are significant security
challenges associated with peer-to-peer communication. The
decentralised concept of blockchain technology ensures transparent
interactions between different parties, which are more secure and
reliable thanks to distributed ledger and proof-of-work consensus
algorithms. Blockchains allow trustless, peer-to-peer communication
and have already proven their worth in the world of financial
services. The blockchain can be implanted in IoT systems to deal
with the issues of scale, trustworthiness and decentralisation,
allowing billions of devices to share the same network without the
need for additional resources. This book discusses the latest tools
and methodology and concepts in the decentralised Internet of
Things. Each chapter presents an in-depth investigation of the
potential of blockchains in the Internet of Things, addressing the
state-of-the-art in and future perspectives of the decentralised
Internet of Things. Further, industry experts, researchers and
academicians share their ideas and experiences relating to frontier
technologies, breakthrough and innovative solutions and
applications.

The purpose of law is to prevent the society from harm by declaring
what conduct is criminal, and prescribing the punishment to be
imposed for such conduct. The pervasiveness of the internet and its
anonymous nature make cyberspace a lawless frontier where anarchy
prevails. Historically, economic value has been assigned to visible
and tangible assets. With the increasing appreciation that
intangible data disseminated through an intangible medium can
possess economic value, cybercrime is also being recognized as an
economic asset. The Cybercrime, Digital Forensics and Jurisdiction
disseminate knowledge for everyone involved with understanding and
preventing cybercrime - business entities, private citizens, and
government agencies. The book is firmly rooted in the law
demonstrating that a viable strategy to confront cybercrime must be
international in scope.
