This book reports on the latest advances from both industry and academia on ubiquitous intelligence and how it is enabled by 5G/6G communication technologies. The authors cover network protocol and architecture design, machine learning and artificial intelligence, coordinated control and digital twins technologies, and security and privacy enhancement for ubiquitous intelligence. The authors include recent studies of performance analysis and enhancement of the Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems, edge computing, and cyber twins, all of which provide importance guidance and theoretical tools for developing future ubiquitous intelligence. The content of the book will be of interest to students, educators, and researchers in academia, industry, and research laboratories.

• Provides comprehensive coverage of enabling communications, computing, and control technologies for ubiquitous intelligence;
• Presents a novel paradigm of ubiquitous intelligence powered by broadband communications, computing, and control;

• Includes a review of 5G/6G communication technologies, network protocol and architecture design, and ubiquitous computing.
