Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The recent developments in science and technology call for advanced instruments for a robust systems engineering and/or analysis, especially regarding modeling, simulation, control/optimization, forecasting and communication under particularly hard system-theoretical challenges as well as hard practical constraints and requirements. This is particularly challenging whenever one has to cope with complexly behaving complex systems. Transportation and communication systems are a typical/good examples of complex and complexly behaving systems. This complexity inherently manifests itself through traffic scenarios and phenomena described by traffic flow data, traffic flow models and related computational challenges of the resulting traffic flow models for the enabling of real-time computational engineering. Also, the flexible implementability over various MOSFETs technologies, hardware and/or software target platforms is an issue of interest in this special issue as this could lead to a concrete practical implementation of a particularly robust and powerful computational systems’ science characterized by both cost and energy effectiveness.
In this Special Issue, we invite submissions exploring the development of methods, conceps and algorithms for analysing traffic flow in transportation and communication engineering. The main focus is on Modeling, simulation, Control/optimization, forecasting and communication. Contributions can focus on Mathematical methods, Numerical simulations, Analog computing, MOSFETs technology, Oscillatory theory, Synchronization and Self-organization, Stability and Bifurcation analysis, Chaos theory, Sensors, Hardware, Algorithms, Graph theory, or Integrated monitoring and prediction systems for communication. Survey papers and reviews are also welcomed.

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
