A comprehensive guide to digital entrepreneurship, bridging academic research and industry practice. Morabito provides a strategic overview of the main challenges and trends related to digital entrepreneurship, structured in three parts. Part I focuses on strategy and management issues, guiding readers through the theory and practice of building, implementing and growing new digital ventures and outlining the skills that are necessary for digital entrepreneurs to succeed and lead. Part II focuses on digital business systems, describing the main technological aspects that support and comprise the core infrastructure for digital entrepreneurship, including social media and the Internet of Things. Finally, Part III provides analyses of three core industries in which digital ventures are particularly important: fintech, manufacturing and fashion. Digital Entrepreneurship will appeal to students and researchers in the areas of digital strategy/innovation and information systems management.

Big data is upon us. With the 'internet of things' now a reality, social scientists must get to grips with the complex network of location-based data in order to ask questions and address problems in
On social media, new forms of communication arise rapidly, many of which are intense, dispersed, and create new communities at a global scale. Such communities can act as distinct information bubbles with their own perspective on the world, and it is difficult for people to find and monitor all these perspectives and relate the different claims made. Within this digital jungle of perspectives on truth, it is difficult to make informed decisions on important things like vaccinations, democracy, and climate change. Understanding and modeling this phenomenon in its full complexity requires an interdisciplinary approach, utilizing the ample data provided by digital communication to offer new insights and opportunities. This interdisciplinary book gives a comprehensive view on social media communication, the different forms it takes, the impact and the technology used to mine it, and defines the roadmap to a more transparent Web.
The book presents Fog networking (which can be simplified as cloud at the edge) for 5G and Internet of things (IoT) networks. Important aspects of fog computing, including measurement, resource pollin
Whether you are a developer, engineer, researcher or student, this practical guide gives you everything you need to know about NFC technology and its applications. You will learn what differentiates NFC from other short-range technologies such as contactless cards, RFID and Bluetooth, as well as discovering the opportunities it provides, from a fast and instinctive user interface with no infrastructure requirements to the world of Secure Elements, Trusted Service Managers, mobile wallets and the Internet of Things. With critical applications in areas including advertising, retail and transportation, this book demonstrates how you can use NFC technology practically to make transactions easier and quicker. All of this is supplemented with an array of in-depth case studies and real-life examples to reinforce your understanding, along with detailed coverage of the problems associated with the wider commercial introduction of NFC and strategies that can be used to aid its future development
Combining cutting-edge technologies and techniques with existing approaches, this book equips you with the tools and knowledge needed to develop new energy-efficient and environmentally friendly RFID systems. As well as covering RFID basics, a wide range of new technologies is discussed, including biodegradable and recyclable material use, energy scavenging, passive and chipless architectures, RFID passive sensors, networked RFID and RFID sensors, organic electronic devices, textile electronics, and distributed and wide area electronics. Providing a clear description of how RFID technology can enable the evolution of the Internet of Things, the book guides you down the path to facing new challenges as we move towards ubiquitous sensing for smart environments and a networked society. This is an ideal guide for researchers in academia and industry, technical managers, and graduate students in RF and wireless communications.

物聯網（The Internet of Things，IOT）概念的提出可以追溯到比爾·蓋茨於1995年出版的《未來之路》一書中，物聯網的發展目的是方便人們的生活，讓孤立的物品（如冰箱、熱水器、汽車、設備、傢俱等）接入網路世界，讓它們之間能相互交流，傳遞資訊。2005年國際電信聯盟（International Telecommunication Union，ITU）發佈的《ITU 互聯網報告200
簡單來說，物聯網(Internet of Things，IoT)就是“物與物相連的互聯網”，它將互聯網的用戶端延伸和擴展到任何物品，是在互聯網的基礎上延伸和擴展的網絡。 隨著智能硬件技術的興起，物聯網發展呈現指數級增長態勢。據Gartner預測，2020年物聯網設備數量將高達260億件。美國等發達國家將物聯網作為戰略新興產業快速推進，我國也將物聯網正式列為國家五大新興戰略之一，在“十三五”規劃中明
