Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Within artificial intelligence, swarm systems are computational systems implemented from algorithms which offer coordination and interaction among its elements to achieve a common goal. These algorithmic systems are inspired by the behavior of different groups of animals, such as ant and bee colonies, wolf packs, and other animals when they work together to achieve complex objectives.
The application of algorithms that implement this type of systems is varied. The fields of application include:
Optimization: these algorithms are used to solve optimization problems in areas, such as transportation, logistics, engineering, etc.
Robotics: these algorithms are used in the coordination of sets of robots to achieve global objectives. They are also used in defense systems for surveillance with drones and autonomous robots.
Sensors: these algorithms are used to obtain joint data from different sensors.
This Special Issue is open for contributions containing latest research in algorithmic applications in swarm 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.
