Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In an era dominated by huge amounts of data and user-generated content, the need for efficient artificial intelligence models, tools and applications for data mining and machine learning is more evident than ever. The power of social and semantic networking and the vast amount of data they generate has created a whole new source of valuable information. New and innovative approaches are needed to address new research challenges. Within this framework, social and semantic analysis may be one of the most important and challenging research tasks of this era. As this perspective is highly applicable to the research community, it presents significant challenges in data management, but also in emerging disciplines such as social information processing and related social tools and semantic applications.
The content of the proposed Special Issue and the goals of the SMAP workshop series are organized around two main themes. The first theme focuses on efficiently extracting, processing, manipulating and analysing data, information and knowledge with the utilization of artificial intelligence in the process, while the second theme focuses on using the above results to effectively build models, tools and applications. The ultimate goal, of course, is to promote a variety of machine and/or human behaviours associated with related artificial intelligence activities.
This Special Issue aims to bring together an interdisciplinary approach, focusing on artificial intelligence models, tools and applications with a social and semantic impact. As typical computational data are usually controlled by semantic heterogeneity and are rather dynamic in nature, computer science researchers are encouraged to develop new or adapt existing suitable AI models, tools, and applications to effectively solve these problems. Therefore, this Special Issue is completely open to anyone who wants to submit a relevant research manuscript.
In addition to the open call, selected papers which will be presented during SMAP 2022 will be invited to be submitted as extended versions to this Special Issue. In this case, the workshop paper should be cited and noted on the first page of the submitted paper; authors are asked to disclose that it is a workshop paper in their cover letter and include a statement on what has been changed compared to the original workshop paper. Each submission to this journal issue should contain at least 50% new material, e.g., in the form of technical extensions, more in-depth evaluations or additional use cases.
All submitted papers will undergo the standard peer-review procedure. Accepted papers will be published in open-access format in Computers and collected on the website of this Special Issue.

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. Computers 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 1800 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.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
