Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recent years have seen explosive and exciting advances in the field of the Internet of Things (IoT), where success has been enjoyed in a variety of applications such as digital health, smart city, environmental monitoring, and predictive maintenance. Real-world applications require sensor data to be timely, reliable, and suitable for decision making. The bounding condition in the IoT system is not going to be the deployment of sensors but rather data engineering with management and analysis of the data deriving from those sensors. With the proliferation of the different forms of data in IoT applications, the need for data engineering techniques can result in the in-depth processing, analysis, indexing, learning, mining, searching, management, and retrieval of data.

This Special Issue aims to highlight data engineering techniques that are applied in the design, development, and assessment of IoT systems to prepare, transform, publish, or otherwise make available data for different IoT applications. We are receptive to a range of papers suitable for some aspects of IoT data engineering. For sharing and exchanging research and results to problems encountered in today's IoT data engineering practitioners and researchers, we especially encourage submissions that make efforts to encompass the following:

  1. The most recent research results in IoT data engineering;
  2. The most recent practice problems that arise in IoT data engineering;
  3. The exchange of experiences in IoT data engineering technologies;
  4. The new issues and directions for future research and development in IoT data engineering.

Huge waves caused by typhoons often induce severe disasters along coastal areas, making the effective prediction of typhoon-induced waves a crucial research issue for researchers. In recent years, the development of the Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) has rapidly increased the prediction of oceanic environmental disasters. Past studies have utilized meteorological data and feedforward neural networks (e.g., BPNN) with static network structures to establish short lead time (e.g., 1 h) typhoon wave prediction models for the coast of Taiwan. However, sufficient lead time for prediction remains essential for preparedness, early warning, and response to minimize the loss of lives and properties during typhoons. The aim of this research is to construct a novel long lead time typhoon-induced wave prediction model using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), which incorporates a dynamic network structure. LSTM can capture long-term information through its recurrent structure and selectively retain necessary signals using memory gates. Compared to earlier studies, this method extends the prediction lead time and significantly improves the learning and generalization capability, thereby enhancing prediction accuracy markedly.

A novel dual-message QR code is proposed for carrying two individual messages that can be read by standard QR code readers: one from a close range and the other from a large distance. By exploring the module value determining the rule of typical QR code readers, we designed two-state module blocks that can be recognized as different module values through changing the distance from which the QR code is scanned, and applied them to construct the proposed dual-message QR code. Experiments were conducted to test the readability of the two messages within a dual-message QR code, with the results demonstrating the high feasibility of the proposed method. The dual-message QR code can be applied for designing creative applications. For example, an interactive wedding card that can access the growing film of the groom and that of the bride interchangeably, which bring the viewers a higher-quality experience. Full article
