Due to the popular demand of this topic, Introduction to Industrial Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 is written to serve a diverse readership from the domains of computer science and engineering, mechanical engineering, information technology, industrial engineering, electronics engineering, and other related branches of engineering. Based on the lead author’s massive open online courses (MOOCs), this book can be used as a textbook on the emerging paradigm of Industry 4.0 and IIo T, as well as a reference for professionals working in sectors of IIo T.

The book covers the significant aspects of IIo T in detail, including sensors, actuators, data transmission, and data acquisition, which form the core of IIo T. Topics and concepts are presented in a comprehensive manner, so that readers can develop expertise and knowledge. The book helps beginners to gain a basic idea of Industry 4.0 and IIo T as the first section is an overview of Io T applications, infrastructure-based protocols, cloud computing, and fog computing. The second section is designed to impart a basic knowledge of Industry 4.0 and IIo T as well as of the different phases of development in industry. Delving into more advanced areas, other sections in the book cover:

• The business models and reference architecture of IIo T


• The technological aspects of Industry 4.0 and IIo T


• Predictive and prescriptive analytics applied in IIo T-based implementations


• Applications and case studies of IIo T
