IoT-Enabled Smart City Healthcare: Transforming Healthcare Delivery with Connected Devices

Dear Colleagues,

Smart sensors and IoT technologies open new doors in healthcare. Transducers, sensors or sensing systems, by means of internet networks, can share data and diagnosis results in a secure and effective manner. This allows, for example, specialists to remotely analyse data and make a diagnosis and patients to monitor his/her own health state. Furthermore, large quantities of data can now be easily shared anonymously for research purposes. In the Smart City context, smart solutions could allow make healthcare more accessible, offering solutions for monitoring health in real time and aiding in decisions regarding hospitalization. This Special Issue aims to collect original research papers and reviews focused on sensors, transducers and sensing devices for healthcare applications based on IoT technologies. It aims to provide a snapshot of the state of the art and progress of applications and technologies, use cases, architectures, recent advances and future trends. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Healthcare;
• IoT-based solutions;
• Smart City;
• Management, security, and privacy of data;
• Interactions between humans and machines;
• Wearable sensing
• Wireless sensor networks;
• Artificial intelligence (AI) for healthcare;
• Human digital twins.
