The astonishing expansion of Internet of Things has opened a lot of opportunities for related domains to employ strategies that were successfully used for the “things” governance. Furthermore, because of the technology blending in the most common household devices and wearable items, it becomes very easy for the computers to sense the surrounding environment and to collect information about the inhabitants, therefore transforming the intelligent house in a Home Care System (HCS). For medical conditions like dementia and its associated diseases, it is very convenient to monitor the patients in their living space because the patient will benefit from their home comfort. In addition, the costs for in hospital monitoring will decrease. This chapter proposes an Internet of Things Governance Architecture that can be used to sustain and monitor a complex e-health system, with application especially for patients with dementia and its associated diseases.

Hydroponics is one of the human significant food sources. This paper proposed the model of the system, Feasible Fish-Farming System (SFFS), which can make the water cultivating framework more practical, employing applying the Internet of things (IoT) to lessen the need for energy for controlling the climate. Little freshwater fish species (SFFs) (length <25 cm) are exceptionally plentiful in nutrient A, calcium, iron and so on and consequently can add to social wellbeing through a supplement to country networks. Under the pressing factor of broad current rural practices and aimless collecting, loads of SFFs are step by step declining, and their environments and favourable places are likewise being crumbled at a quicker rate. A superior protectionist approach could be the carp-SFFS combination which will decrease aimless mass catch fishing of SFFs and will guarantee the preservation of normal SFFs stocks in their territories giving financial advantage to partners. Various investigations have effectively showed an example of overcoming adversity of SFF polyculture through carp—SFFs joining. This creation cum preservation practice prompts manageability—a superior term in the fishery is 'social fishery'. The part that needs consideration is the taking care of nature of SFFs to comprehend inside and between species (with carps) food apportioning and living space inclination as better culture cum conservational approach. Exploration in hydroponics is a contribution to increment settled creation. In the last decade, different researchers have supported attempts that came about in advancing current creation advances that have altered homestead creation. Fish developing is having the chance to be a champion among the most remunerating ambitious activities on account of the low advancement, insignificant exertion course of action-adventure and the 3 to half-year gathering cycles. IoT advancements have altered homestead creation in the country. In this paper, we propose an idea to distinguish far off observing the fish cultivating framework by utilizing the different sensors to diminish the dangers. In this paper, we utilize different sensors like pH worth, temperature and level sensors. By utilizing these sensors, all the work is mechanized, and it will likewise be not challenging to screen the fish cultivating distantly from other areas. The SFFS coordinates the sun-based homestead and fish-ranch to lessen the additional energy input. Furthermore, the lighting of LEDs is utilized to help the photosynthesis in the evening. This way is more energy-proficient than the customary siphoning. Besides, this model shows the subjective accessibility of SFFS.

Internet of things represents a catch line of smart applications. At the same time it plays a leading role in the health care systems, as it provides the connectivity of the distant patients, who are not able to express their concerns.  In this modern era there are a lot of technologies that are being used in different healthcare fields for paralyzed people. This paper proposed a model for paralyzed patient by considering Arduino with the integration of gyro sensors for the patient hand and finger movement. Patient can easily be connected with this device by sending his message to caretaker only by moving their hands into respective directions, or they can send their message by moving their fingers and feet. Through this device paralyzed patient will be able to convey their messages to caretakers, so they can assist the patient. This system will enhance the medical care to those patients who are even not able to convey their message.

Cognitive Internet of Things (CIoT) is the next leap towards enhancing the accuracy and effectiveness of Internet of Things (IoT) technology used in combination with cognitive computing that has a significant role in healthcare and diseases diagnosis. The work in this paper proposes a system to diagnose the sensitivity toward sound and light by developing a mechanism based on facial emotions recognition system that integrate with IoT protocols and cloud computing. The proposed system was achieved by establishing a cognitive IoT environment composed of hardware and software components that practically implemented in a laboratory to identify the behavior of people suffering from sensitivity toward sound and light. This behavior was observed by monitoring human face emotions through a live video capturing using camera and image processing using facial emotion recognition software. Emotions values obtained was examined and collected in a cloud using (MQTT) protocol. These emotions were classified as normal and abnormal. Normal state give the impression that the surrounding environment is appropriate for people senses and they do not suffer from any discomfort, therefore the system works on a mechanism to increase the intensities of sound or light in this environment and vice versa.

As the world's population ages, those suffering from diseases will increase. Researchers in electronics, computer, networking, and medical fields need to work more seriously to make the broad vision of smart healthcare/e-health system. To achieve the objectives of e-healthcare in smart cities, there is a need to create new system that allows the acquisition of health information smartly, automatically, and transparently in order to take efficient decisions provided by the supporting system. Such systems may be designed technically by embedded together communication, smart signals, internet of things, network of sensors.
