Reihe: Engineering Cyber-Physical Systems and Critical Infrastructures

Amidst the global challenges of climate change, rapid urbanization, and resource depletion, there is an urgent need for intelligent and environmentally friendly infrastructure. This ambitious book explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is altering the landscape of infrastructure planning, development, and management, reigning in a new era of environmentally friendly and intelligent systems meant to propel a brighter future.

This book focuses on the revolution of urban planning, renewable energy, waste management, disaster resilience, and precision agriculture through compelling concepts and practical applications using artificial intelligence. The chapters are enriched with recent case studies, which serve to demonstrate the real-world impact and implementation of Artificial Intelligence. The chapters of this book will help the readers acquire knowledge of the novel concepts regarding green structures and policy formulation, all of which are interconnected by the objective of sustainable development.

The book provides an interdisciplinary perspective on the impact of artificial intelligence on the development of sustainable, resilient, and adaptive infrastructure, with contributions from academics and experts. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the AI-driven advancements that are paving the path to a sustainable future, suitable for individuals of any level of expertise, including researchers, policymakers, or technologists.

Let us create a sustainable future that is governed by artificial intelligence!
