Shipping is the worlds oldest sharing economy and is conducted in a self-organizing manner. Shipping is capital, energy, and information intensive, and with the growing impact of digitalization and climate change, there is a need to rethink the management and operations of this critical global industry - assisted in no small way by maritime informatics. Building upon the recently published inaugural book Maritime Informatics by Springer, this book will address some of the most recent practical developments and experiences, particularly from a global perspective. The focus of the book is to address contemporary movements to tackle global concerns and to complement Maritime Informatics.

"Blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques play a crucial role in dealing with large amounts of heterogeneous, multi-scale, and multi-modal data coming from the internet of things (IoT) infrastructures. Therefore, further discussion on how the fusion of blockchain, IoT, and AI allows the design of models, mathematical models, methodologies, algorithms, evaluation benchmarks, and tools to address challenging problems related to health informatics, healthcare, and wellbeing is required. Contemporary Applications of Data Fusion for Advanced Healthcare Informatics covers the integration of IoT and AI to tackle applications in smart healthcare and discusses the efficient means to collect, monitor, control, optimize, model, and predict healthcare data using blockchain, AI, and IoT. The book also considers the advantages and improvements in the smart healthcare field, in which ubiquitous computing and traditional computational methods alone are often inadequate. Covering key topics such as disruptive technology, electronic health records, and medical data, this premier reference source is ideal for computer scientists, nurses, doctors, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students."--
