The papers in this special section focus on artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Internet of Everything services in next generation wireless networks. These networks are undergoing a major revolution, connecting billions of machines and millions of people. These networks are marketed as the key enabler of an unprecedented Internet of Everything (IoE) services. Services include eXtended reality (XR) (encompassing virtual, mixed, and augmented reality), connected autonomous systems, telemedicine, haptics, flying vehicles, etc. To successfully enable these IoE applications, wireless systems must simultaneously provide ultra-low latency, high reliability, and high data rates, for heterogeneous devices, through downlink and uplink. In addition, an end-to-end co-design of computing, control and communication functionalities are also required by the emerging IoE services. To meet these requirements, next generation networks are expected to address unique challenges to transform wireless systems into self-sustaining and intelligent systems, in order to dynamically provision and orchestrate computing-control-communication-storage-sensing resources tailored to the IoE services’ requirements. Besides, AI will bring many key research directions for emerging wireless networks.
