Special Issue Information
Dear Colleague,
This Special Issue is a continuation of our previous Special Issue, Integration of AI, Big Data, and ICT into Emerging Technologies for Sustainable Solutions.
Sustainable solutions across various industries have become pivotal in the era of global digital transformation, while the transformative impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) promise to enhance and promote a brighter, more sustainable future for humanity.
In recent years, the convergence of emerging technologies has opened up a rapidly expanding field of study. Specifically, the integration of these technologies into systems across various sectors, such as healthcare, smart cities, manufacturing, and Urban Air Mobility (UAM), has enhanced their efficiency, performance, and sustainability, making them indispensable tools in various engineering applications. This Special Issue will feature research and case studies that examine how Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can drive innovation, optimize performance, and tackle challenges across varied applications, ranging from environmental management to the development of smart infrastructure.
Multidisciplinary contributions that provide a holistic view of the technological, economic, and environmental benefits of these integrations are welcome. This Special Issue will serve as a vital resource for researchers, engineers, and policymakers, showcasing diverse applications and innovative approaches.
