- Abstract: As the IoT becomes increasingly ubiquitous, concerns are being raised about
how IoT systems are being built and deployed. Connected devices will generate
vast quantities of data, which drive algorithmic systems and result in
real-world consequences. Things will go wrong, and when they do, how do we
identify what happened, why they happened, and who is responsible? Given the
complexity of such systems, where do we even begin?
This chapter outlines aspects of accountability as they relate to IoT, in the
context of the increasingly interconnected and data-driven nature of such
systems. Specifically, we argue the urgent need for mechanisms - legal,
technical, and organisational - that facilitate the review of IoT systems. Such
mechanisms work to support accountability, by enabling the relevant
stakeholders to better understand, assess, interrogate and challenge the
connected environments that increasingly pervade our world.

Agent-based supply chains have been proposed since early 2000; industrial uptake has been lagging.
We find that agent-based technology has matured, and other supporting technologies that are penetrating supply chains are filling in gaps.
For example, the ubiquity of IoT technology helps agents "sense" the state of affairs in a supply chain and opens up new possibilities for automation.

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) revolutionizes the future manufacturing facilities by integrating the Internet of Things technologies into industrial settings.
With the deployment of massive IIoT devices, it is difficult for the wireless network to support the ubiquitous connections with diverse quality-of-service (QoS) requirements.
We first summarize the requirements of the typical massive non-critical and critical IIoT use cases. We then identify unique characteristics in the massive IIoT scenario, and the corresponding machine learning solutions with its limitations and potential research directions.
