Over the last 10 years, technology has completely revolutionised every aspect of life with brilliant contributions to our society. Modern technology supplies us with amazing resources that alter the way we live our everyday lives. However, along with that are serious concerns about influences of emerging technologies on the environment, and on the security, health and culture of our society. In order to achieve a smart, healthy and secure society, there is an urgent need for the development of enabling technologies in many areas such as robotics, communications, security, big data analytics, signal processing, business models, risk management, brain-computer interaction and artificial intelligence.
