This chapter examines and explores the potential of how the capabilities of the emerging 5G cellular technologies can be integrated with a given mission-critical xIoT application (e., g., smart grid) to enable a truly converged xIoT-ICT infrastructure that would further enhance and enable the adequate support of the strict performance requirement of such an xIoT application. Since the smart grid believed to be one of the most necessitated IoT services. in this work, it has been nominated as a descriptive xIoT case. As the smart grid comprises an extensive collection of applications extended from mission-critical services which have rigorous necessities in terms of end-to-end (E2E) latency and reliability (e.g., real-time system protection and control utilizing PMU measurements) to those that require support of massive number of connected machine-to-machine (M2M) devices with relaxed latency and reliability requirements (e.g., smart meters). Based on time-to-market strategy, we identify and propose two different 5G-based business and architectural models that enable a truly converged power grid-ICT infrastructure, namely, near-term model and long-term model.

This book explains how water, electricity/power and roads are linked together within the general basket of development and how to obtain the optimum use of resources. The emphasis, nowadays, is on multipurpose activities, optimum use of resources, environmental approach, minimum use of energy. This book tries to integrate all of these, by showing the links between the different components of infrastructure and trying to model them. A very good design may fail during the implementation or operation because of bad design, but also due to inadequate attention given to the human aspects required for its operation. This book is intended for graduates or practicing professionals who are involved in the general development planning of their country/region. It creates a general awareness about what is needed to communicate with other professionals in terms of their own fields and others.

Environmental Research: Infrastructure and Sustainability (ERIS) is a multidisciplinary journal devoted to addressing important challenges relevant to every aspect of infrastructure and associated systems at all scales and in all geographic settings, and sustainability and resilience in their broadest sense, encompassing environmental, economic, and social factors. All research methodologies are encouraged comprehensively covering qualitative, quantitative, experimental, theoretical and applied approaches. With infrastructure and sustainability underpinning many of the most significant societal challenges, ERIS brings together communities extending across environmental research, engineering, the social sciences and humanities as well as policy influencers (within academia, government, industry and the civic sphere) dedicated to seeking innovative solutions to these issues.- The journal covers infrastructure from broad and inclusive perspectives at global, regional, national and local scales, including current and emerging issues to wherever humanity's influence extends, from single products to networked systems.- ERIS publishes studies on the development, planning, design, production, use, maintenance, revitalization, and end of life phases of infrastructure and associated systems relevant, but not limited, to: Urban infrastructure systems; Resilience and the built environment; Socio-economic structures and physical infrastructure; Buildings and structures; Energy systems; Transportation systems; Water, stormwater, and wastewater systems; Digital infrastructure; AI and virtual domains for urban infrastructure and sustainable development; New and emerging technologies relating to infrastructure, resilience, and sustainable development; Construction materials and processes; Economics, behaviour, sociology, geography and policy as they relate to sustainability.- Infrastructure policy for sustainable development; Carbon capture and storage; End of life management; Net-zero systems; Circular economy; Infrastructure systems that support manufacturing; Sustainable consumption; Capital goods in production systems; Land use and natural resource management in the service of infrastructure. Human health and well-being.
