Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Multi-agent systems (MAS) are a core area of research in many topical industries (e.g., technical sectors, healthcare, economics, biology, etc.). They are formed by a group of multiple agents interacting with each other and the adjacent area in order to accomplish various computational and time-demanding tasks. These agents are characterized by numerous positive features such as independence, self-awareness, distributed character, etc., thereby outperforming traditional single-agent systems in many aspects (e.g., scalability, complexity, robustness to potential threats, diversity, etc.). As one can see in the literature, many algorithms based on various principles have found applications in MASs over the past few decades (e.g., machine learning algorithms, artificial intelligence algorithms, deep learning algorithms, distributed algorithms, consensus algorithms, evolutionary algorithms, etc.). This Special Issue is dedicated to the proposal of novel algorithms for topical MAS, an analysis of the current ones in these systems from different aspects, and their optimization. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following topics:
- Internet of Things
- machine learning algorithms
- artificial intelligence algorithms
- deep learning algorithms
- distributed computing
- consensus algorithms
- evolutionary algorithms
- swarm computing
- cloud computing
- sensor systems
- predictive modeling
- optical systems.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
