Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
One of the major issues in designing embedded systems consists in providing more computing power in smaller and smaller devices, while guaranteeing energy efficiency and a high performance level. Other issues are related to the new usage of these systems, such as the possibility to transparently and concurrently execute many applications or operating systems, sometimes in real-time.
The scope of this Special Issue encompasses the full stack of technologies behind modern embedded applications: design of embedded devices, development of software, integration within a larger system, deployment, and management.
This Special Issue welcomes contributions on novel and inspiring applications of embedded systems, including, but not limited to, the following domains:
- Real-time embedded systems design: energy management, dynamic reconfiguration, QoS, heterogeneity and interoperability
- Virtualization of embedded systems
- Hardware/software co-design, synthesis, reconfigurable hardware, real-time network- and system on chip
- Embedded systems security
- Embedded systems performance
- Novel and inspiring applications of embedded systems
Dr. Jean-Christophe Prévotet

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