Summary:

The convergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) form the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) and countless innovation industries. A series of smart applications is booming based on integrating IoT solutions, smart sensors, different computing schemes, and AI, such as smart agriculture, smart healthcare, smart homes/cities, smart retail, etc. However, these applications face several issues, such as service response time, energy-saving, privacy, and security. To address these problems, some recent studies have proposed different approaches to realize green and sustainable Industry 4.0. Celebrating the 58th anniversary of the founding of Hung Yen University of Technical Education (UTEHY) (http://www.utehy.edu.vn), this Special Issue (SI) focuses on IoT and IIoT Applications for Industry 4.0 and/or advanced technologies for emerging domains such as smart healthcare, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), agriculture, automation and robotics, and innovative IoT ecosystems.

The topics include but are not limited to:

• Green and sustainable IoT and IIoT applications for Industry 4.0;
• Emerging communication technologies for Industry 4.0;
• Advanced computing schemes for Industry 4.0;
• Green energy consumption solutions for Industry 4.0;
• Innovative IoT ecosystems for Industry 4.0, such as Smart Healthcare, ITS, and Smart Cities.

Key Words: Industry 4.0, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Emerging Communication Technologies, 5G/6G Networks, ITS, Edge/Fog/Cloud Computing, Ad Hoc Communication, Big Data Analytic, Smart Systems.
