In the immediate future, it is plausible that Internet of
Things applications are going to address the fields where
sensors are almost ready to be delivered like in the field of
retail or automotive. It should be expected that looking
further a lot of new sensors and actuators will be produced
following the technologies evolution mostly in the field of
materials, micro-electronics and nano-technologies. We can
imagine a new word where everything is connected and can
share and process information in real time. In such a kind of
world the space for optimization is almost unlimited. Our life
will be dramatically improved by also facing negative trend
like the growth of big cities.
