Evolutionary Trends of Intelligent IoT Networking for Commercial and Industrial Use Cases

With IoT applications and services in practically every aspect of our lives, global connection is becoming more very prevalent in every day structure. Terrestrial networks alone cannot satisfy these objectives, thus alternative communication infrastructures like LEO satellites, UAVs, and high-altitude platforms must be used to their maximum capacity in terms of coverage, flexibility, and availability to service IoT devices at any time and location. But the future integrated platform, such as Space-Air-Ground Integrated Network (SAGIN) is not just a collection of disparate network segments and domains. It will be the greatest regional scale ever known, making the management of heterogeneity and hybridity of this global network difficult.
 
Commercial and industrial uses, such as video streaming, remote conferencing, online purchasing, on-demand manufacturing, and video monitoring, have begun to be a constant in people's everyday lives. Emerging needs for these applications include ubiquitous access from any location, at any time, with a focus on the quality of end-to-end service delivery, and a rising demand for computer resources. Current networks have significant challenges in managing the complexity and resource scheduling efficiency required to serve the rapidly rising number of smart applications in the near future. Intelligent IoT networking structures, defined as networks that adapt to changing service demand, will be crucial in tackling these difficulties.
 
Intelligent IoT networking refers to the capacity of networks to autonomously operate and govern themselves, allowing operators to coordinate network and computer resources at a much finer granularity and with more efficiency. Intelligent IoT networking may allow new paradigms of network and facility sharing. When the private workload is relatively light, businesses, social public sectors, and individuals might dynamically share their network and facilities in order to help others while also from benefiting from an earned profit. Knowledge-driven advanced artificial intelligence (AI) approaches can be used to address the multi-folded complexity associated with deriving the optimal decisions and policies for intelligent IoT networking. This is due to the exponential growth in computing power that has been enabled by the widespread deployment of edge computing nodes within networks. In order to enable intelligent IoT networking solutions for commercial and industrial applications, it is anticipated that interesting and hard challenges will arise.
 
The main goal of this special issue is to attract academic and industrial researchers in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical challenges, recent breakthroughs, and new applications related to intelligent IoT networking.
