In today's world, there is nothing permanent except change. We have seen the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution or Industry 4.0 over the last couple of years. Now is a perfect time to think about Industry 4.0 technology and leverage its advantages for the benefit of mankind. It cannot prevent the onset of pandemics; however, it can help and has helped prevent spread, educate, warn, and empower those on the ground to be aware of the situation, and noticeably lessen the impact. Industry 4.0 can fulfil the requirements of customised facemasks, gloves, and collect information for healthcare systems for proper controlling and treating of COVID-19 patients. Major technologies of Industry 4.0 are required to solve the problems of this virus. It is useful to provide day-to-day updates of an infected patient, area-wise, age-wise and state-wise with proper surveillance systems. We also believe that the proper implementation of these technologies would help to enhance education and communication regarding public health. These Industry 4.0 technologies could provide a lot of innovative ideas and solutions for fighting local and global medical emergencies. Today, we need to focus on technologies like mobile, cloud, analytics, robotics, AI/ML, 4G/5G, and high-speed internet; it has become possible to test several innovative approaches to pandemic response. The objective of this book is to bring together leading academic scientists, research scholars and professionals to exchange and share their experiences and research results in Industry 4.0 and Intelligent Business Analytics. This research-oriented book will provide a common platform to all researchers in this domain. It covers different verticals of industry and academics, which is an added advantage of this book.
