Smart shipping is a future method for transporting ocean cargo and exploring the resources of oceans for medical drugs, food, energy resources, and other products. A smart ship is an integration of shipping with many fields such as fishing, manufacturing, navigation, communication, computing, control, sensing, etc., to provide better shipping and services.

The purpose of this edited book is to provide state‐of‐the‐art approaches and novel technologies for smart ships, covering a range of topics in these areas so that it will be an excellent reference book for the researchers, students, and professionals in these areas. It presents the fundamental technologies needed to build smart ships, and gives a clear explanation of them.

This book will serve as a good reference for researchers to know the state of the art and to discover uncovered territory and develop new applications, as well as being a guideline for building future smart ships.

Yang Xiao is a Full Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA.

Tieshan Li is a Full Professor in the School of Automation Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.
