Abstract
The Internet of things (IoT) is a network of interconnected devices for exchange of data and information. Since traditional IoT applications are limited by the size of devices, the emergence of nanotechnology has resulted in the development of a new category of connected devices broadly referred to as the Internet of nanothings (IoNT). IoNT includes the miniaturized replacement for traditional IoT sensors for communication, data collection, data transfer and data processing. IoNT as a concept is still relatively new and has drawn attention from industry, academic researchers and professional practitioners but needs lot more research in terms of development and applications. In this chapter, drawing from the artificial intelligence (AI), IoT and IoNT literature, we describe the current state of IoNT research and its implications, and propose how AI can be leveraged in future IoNT applications.
