Multi-Disciplinary Applications of Fog Computing: Responsiveness in Real-Time

Recently, several fog computing applications have been developed like IoT-based healthcare, 5G, blockchains, autonomous driving, and mobile wireless applications. They also address challenges such as data management, scalability, regulations, interoperability, device network human interfaces, security, and privacy. Further study on these applications is required to ensure this technology is utilized appropriately. Multi-Disciplinary Applications of Fog Computing: Responsiveness in Real-Time focuses on fog computing problems and solutions for various applications and covers the new approaches, architecture, and theoretical foundations in the fog paradigm of storage, communication, and computing. The book explores recent trends and challenges that lead to a potential course for the ideas, practices, norms, and strategies related to fog computing. Covering key topics such as data privacy, data analytics, and the internet of things, this reference work is ideal for computer scientists, policymakers, researchers, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.

Fog and Visibility

Fog and Visibility provides a comprehensive exploration of fog, moving beyond a simple weather phenomenon to reveal its significant impacts on transportation safety, environmental science, and even unique ecosystems like fog forests. The book examines the atmospheric science behind fog formation, detailing how temperature, humidity, and condensation interplay to create different types of fog, such as radiation or advection fog. Understanding these processes is crucial for improving fog forecasting and mitigating its disruptive effects on daily life. The book uniquely connects atmospheric science with real-world applications, analyzing case studies of fog-related accidents and the economic costs associated with impaired visibility. It demonstrates how fog influences agriculture, public health, and tourism in specific regions. Furthermore, the approach extends into ecological considerations, revealing fog's vital role in supporting biodiversity and water cycles, particularly in coastal and desert environments. The book progresses logically, starting with scientific principles, then analyzing practical impacts, and finally delving into the ecological aspects of fog.
