      Despite the fact that older adults constitute an ever-growing proportion of the technology-using population, they have often been overlooked when researchers study the habits, abilities, and needs of various user groups. Similarly, many developers and researchers come up short when trying to create new technologies, devices, and interfaces that will satisfy a more general user profile. User study participants have tended to be younger, physically and cognitively fit, and technologically savvy. In Designing User Interfaces for an Aging Population, Second Edition, the authors present the demographics of older adults as a broad group, and describe general sensory, cognitive, physical, and emotional characteristics of older adults. Each age-related characteristic is linked to its potential impact on older adults’ use of digital technology, with examples of problematic technology designs. To improve the user satisfaction, success, and overall experience of using (digital) technology, the authors offer specific design guidelines. These guidelines have been derived from the findings and evidence presented in hundreds of research studies. The studies are sourced from around the world, and address a wide range of study participants and technologies. The second edition is thoroughly updated, including examples, guidelines, and case studies to reflect recent developments in the areas of AI, Robotics, Speech Recognition, and other relevant emerging technologies. Readers will benefit from learning: demographics of users of digital technology; age-related factors affecting ability to use digital technology; common design issues that decrease usability for older adults; guidelines that can help designers avoid these common pitfalls; methods for working with older adults on research and design projects.

      Digital Outcasts: Moving Technology Forward without Leaving People Behind, Second Edition explores how inclusive design is reshaping today’s technological and industrial landscape. This updated edition incorporates the latest legal and technological advancements, highlighting both the strides made and the challenges that remain. The book examines the real-life experiences of individuals often excluded by inaccessible products and services, such as those living with disabilities ranging from blindness and cognitive conditions to long-term illnesses and injuries. With digital access now vital for employment, education, healthcare, and social connection, the consequences of exclusion are far-reaching and increasingly urgent.The book emphasizes that, through grassroots innovation, many have begun to reclaim agency and transform their environments. It delves into the pivotal role disabled users have played in driving human-computer interaction forward, and uses case studies from law, healthcare, creative arts, and social science to illustrate how disability continues to be a powerful catalyst for design and progress.

      The smart city paradigm combines smart homes, smart healthcare, smart transportation, smart industry, smart environment, and smart energy to ensure sustainability, well-being and comfortable living within the urban environment for the city's citizens. IoT enables computational intelligence to leverage the power of data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to extract meaningful insights from the vast amount of data generated by IoT devices. This synergy empowers connected devices to collect, process, and analyze data in real-time, enabling informed decision-making and predictive insights. Through adaptive algorithms and edge computing, the system can autonomously respond to changing conditions, optimize resource usage, and enhance energy efficiency. Security and anomaly detection mechanisms ensure the integrity of the IoT network, while human-machine interaction capabilities, facilitated by natural language processing, enable intuitive communication. This convergence of computational intelligence and IoT not only transforms data into actionable knowledge but also fosters the development of autonomous, efficient, and adaptive systems across diverse domains, ranging from smart cities to healthcare and industrial applications. The integration of computational intelligence with IoT enhances the capabilities of connected systems, making them smarter, more efficient, and better equipped to handle the complexities of the modern world. Smart City Computational Paradigms describes the connections between these state-of-the-art technologies and provides a comprehensive overview for readers interested in advanced technologies, identifying mentioned challenges and proposed solutions as well as developed framework. It covers the underlying theory, design techniques, classification, taxonomy and analytical tools, focusing primarily on the real time applications, uncertainty solutions and approaches with hands-on demonstration for decision making outcomes.

      Digital twins integrate IoT, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and analytics with a graphic and/or spatial representation to make animate digital simulation models that can change and develop as their physical counterpart does. A digital twin learns and updates itself continuously using real-time data from sensors on the physical asset to represent operating, environmental, and working conditions in near real-time.The metaverse technology represents a comprehensive virtual world, where everything and everyone interacts similarly to what we would do in the real world. The concept of metaverse has gained a lot of prominence after several cryptocurrency networks adopted the technology. With the metaverse technology, a virtual reality becomes a persistent virtual environment that exists even when you are not engaging with it.The digital twin in IoT (Internet of things) and the metaverse are the next big step in our technological evolution as these two technologies continue to shorten the gap between the human and the digital world. MetaConstructs: The Evolution of Digital Twins in the Metaverse Era provides information on emerging fields of next-generation digital twins with a special emphasis on emerging developments and applications of the metaverse, IoT, artificial intelligence, deep learning techniques, virtual reality, augmented reality, internet of medical things (IoMT), optimization techniques, decision making, and cloud computing.The book provides a conceptual framework and roadmap for decision-makers for this transformation.
