As we celebrate five years of the journal, we are delighted to share insights from the Editor-in-Chief: Prof. Ishfaq Ahmad
“I conceived and joined Discover IoT as the founding editor-in-chief (EIC). The three notable changes since the inception of this journal are: The AI revolution, the global research competition, and the staggering amount of IoT-related research output.
Discover IoT will continue to improve the quality of its publications, secure additional indexing, maintain its integrity and fairness, and provide excellent customer service. My proudest moment as EIC has yet to come, as I continue to raise my own high expectations. However, I feel a great deal of satisfaction with this journal's success, as it has established itself as a quintessence entity in the publishing arena. I am very grateful to the excellent Springer Nature management, the journal staff, the editorial board members, the reviewers, the authors, and the readers.”
