... As illustrated in Figure 1, this strategy effectively reduces the amount of data transmitted from the device monitoring a target phenomenon to a remote server, thus reducing the time and the communication that pass between the operations of sensing and actuation. However, the challenge of EI involves not only embedding the characteristics of massive computing systems into tiny, restricted devices, as if trying "to fit an elephant into a small box" [13], but indeed, a full-fledged infrastructure to allow EI, at its extreme, to transform Big Data into intelligent data and to enable real-time device management, system performance, decision-making, and operation monitoring, thus improving overall responsiveness, privacy, effectiveness, and productivity [12,[14][15][16]. Although EI holds the potential to rival the cloud, it cannot maximize its capabilities when employed alone. ...
