*Introduction*
The recent unprecedented advancements have significantly reshaped medical
and biomedical processes and increased the need for developing innovative
and interactive frameworks. In addition to their roles in improving data
acquisition, processing and sharing, these technologies are making
significant organizational and institutional shits. Particularly in the
field of healthcare, the use of Internet of Things (IoTs) technologies has
generated extensive opportunities for medical and biomedical activities.
The exponential growth of wearable devices, interoperability of mobile
applications and innovative IoT-based methodologies and frameworks continue
to reshape, empower and transform healthcare activities and processes in a
way that significantly affects the quality of services provided, safety of
preventive care, medical sustainability and affordability of services.
Within the context of medical and biomedical applications, the use of IoTs
has moved some issues to the front line agenda of healthcare policy makers,
mainly the development of appropriate architectures, mainstreaming of
interoperable processes and using innovative information security
frameworks.

*Objective*
The goal of this special issue is to solicit original high-quality,
original, significant and visionary papers from both the academia and
industry that deal with the development of new and generalizable
methodologies and technologies in relation with the use of internet of
things (IoTs) systems in medical and biomedical domains. We invite papers
describing examples of successful design, implementation and use of IoTs,
electronic devices and integrated systems in health care applications, and
papers addressing technical and operational challenges associated with the
adoption of internet-of-things in medical and biomedical applications.

*Recommended Topics*
Topics to be discussed in this special issue include (but are not limited
to) the following:

   - The operational domain of IoT in medical and biomedical applications
   including the rationales for the use of IoT devices, cost reduction, energy
   consumption, improvement of medical and biomedical functionalities,
   integration abilities, cross-sharing of information by using cost
   effective, interactive, wearable, stationed and mobile biomedical devices,
   roles of IoT devices in reshaping the context of medical monitoring, data
   acquisition and sharing, remote monitoring and management of medical and
   biomedical functions.
   - IoT devices used in medical and biomedical systems including
   implantable electronics: integration of bio-interfaces, devices and
   sensors, Electronic devices, circuits and systems for non-invasive
   diagnosis, Radiofrequency devices, circuits and systems for e-medicine:
   data communications, diagnosis, monitoring.
   - Models and frameworks for the acquisition, processing and sharing
   medical and biomedical knowledge.
   - IoT architectures and frameworks IoT architectures and frameworks to
   be used for the extraction, processing and use of healthcare data to
   support decision making.
   - Security and privacy concerns of IoT in medical systems and biomedical
   applications.
   - Innovative multi-disciplinary approaches for the design, modeling,
   development and evaluation of innovative IoT healthcare system framework,
   architecture and applications.
   - Case-based Reasoning in Biomedicine and Biomedical Ontologies and
   Terminologies
   - Big Data Analytics, Clinical Decision Support Systems, Machine
   Learning, Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining.
   - AI methods in Telemedicine and e-Health,
   - Patient Engagement Support (Personal Health Record) and medical and
   biomedical Document Classification and Information
   - Bayesian Networks and Reasoning Under Uncertainty.
   - Biomedical Imaging and Signal Processing.
   - Temporal and Spatial Representation and Reasoning, Computerized
   Clinical Practice Guidelines and Protocols and Visual Analytics in
   Biomedicine
   - AI solutions for Ambient Assisted Living, Predictive Maintenance of
   Hospital Equipment and Tracking Healthcare Devices, Interoperability of
   Health Devices, Remote Monitoring, Security of Medical Records/Mobile
   Healthcare, Wearables, using data to improves patient care.
   - The Future of Healthcare, Predictive Maintenance of Hospital Equipment.
