Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ever-growing demand for higher application performance and reduced energy consumption have been shaping modern computer hardware architectures, which have been also growing in complexity and heterogeneity. To leverage the computational power of complex and heterogeneous modern computer systems, the development of efficient compilers, optimizers and optimization tools/frameworks is of paramount importance. This Special Issue aims to present the latest findings pertaining to compiler optimizations, optimization frameworks, as well as innovative methods and tools being developed to tackle the existing problems.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Code generation, translation, transformation, and optimization for performance, energy consumption, code size, portability, security, or reliability;
- Hardware-dependent optimizations for heterogenous hardware architectures or specialized co-processors;
- Machine learning compilers and optimizers;
- Profile-guided, feedback-directed, and machine learning-based optimization;
- Optimizing scientific applications on parallel hardware architectures;
- Compiler optimizations for graphics processor units (GPUs) or other programmable accelerators;
- Compiler techniques or loop transformations for optimizing memory hierarchy;
- Programming environments for GPU-based computing;
- Optimization and code generation for emerging programming models and platforms;
- Compiler support for vectorization, thread extraction, task scheduling, memory management, data distribution and synchronization.

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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- Reprint: MDPI Books provides the opportunity to republish successful Special Issues in book format, both online and in print.
