In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, online technologies have emerged as the driving force behind numerous fields of engineering and society as a whole, forming an inseparable interconnected web. These technologies include the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial Internet of Things (Industry 4.0), Online and Biomedical Engineering, Data Science, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence, Cross and Mixed Reality, and Remote Working Environments, among many others. Since the inaugural REV conference in 2004, our focus has been on exploring the upcoming applications of the Internet for engineering tasks and the opportunities and challenges that accompany them.

Consequently, the theme of this year's REV2022 conference was "Artificial Intelligence and Online Engineering." In a world that is increasingly connected, there is a growing interest in online collaboration, teleworking, remote services, and other digital working environments. This conference aims to contribute and discuss the fundamentals, applications, and experiences in the field of Online and Remote Engineering, Virtual Instrumentation, and other related emerging technologies such as Cross Reality, Data Science & Big Data, IoT & Industrial IoT, Industry 4.0, Cyber-Security, and M2M & Smart Objects.

Another objective of the conference is to explore guidelines and innovative concepts for engineering education in higher and vocational education institutions, including emerging technologies in learning, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and Massive Open Online Learning (MOOLs), and Open Resources.

REV2022, held from February 28 to March 02, 2022, marked the 19th installment in a series of annual events dedicated to the field of Online Engineering. This year's conference was a hybrid event, organized in collaboration with The British University in Egypt (BUE), Cairo. The event brought together experts, researchers, and practitioners from around the world to exchange ideas, share experiences, and foster collaborations in this rapidly advancing field.

The conference featured a diverse range of keynote speakers, panel discussions, and technical sessions, covering a wide spectrum of topics related to online engineering. Some of the key themes discussed included:

Online Collaboration and Virtual Teams: The importance of online collaboration and virtual teams in today's globalized world, where remote work and virtual meetings are becoming increasingly common.

Remote Services and Virtual Instrumentation: The use of remote services and virtual instrumentation to enable remote monitoring, control, and automation of industrial processes and equipment.

Data Science and Big Data: The application of data science and big data techniques to analyze and extract valuable insights from large datasets, enabling better decision-making and innovation.

IoT and Industrial IoT: The integration of IoT and Industrial IoT technologies to create smart, connected, and automated industrial environments.

Industry 4.0 and Cyber-Security: The challenges and opportunities of Industry 4.0, including the need for robust cyber-security measures to protect critical infrastructure and data.

M2M and Smart Objects: The development of M2M (Machine-to-Machine) and smart object technologies, enabling seamless communication and collaboration between devices and systems.

The conference also included workshops, tutorials, and hands-on demonstrations, providing participants with practical opportunities to learn and apply the latest technologies in online engineering.

In conclusion, REV2022 was a highly successful event that brought together a diverse group of experts and enthusiasts from around the world to explore the future of online engineering. The conference provided a platform for sharing knowledge, fostering collaborations, and driving innovation in this rapidly evolving field. As we move forward, we can expect to see more advancements in online technologies, leading to new opportunities and challenges in engineering and society as a whole.
