Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wireless communication systems have evolved into ubiquitous tools that seamlessly integrate with various interdisciplinary applications. They have redefined how we communicate, share information, and access services. In society, wireless communication has fostered connectivity on a global scale, enabling instant communication, remote work, and the proliferation of smart devices. In informatics, these technologies have expanded the capabilities of computing systems, allowing for the collection and transmission of vast amounts of data, fueling advancements in artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things. Furthermore, they have revolutionized healthcare through telemedicine and remote monitoring, thus optimizing patient care. As these wireless communication systems continue to reshape our daily lives across various fields, addressing security and privacy aspects has become paramount to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of the vast amounts of data being transmitted and shared. In the context of human–computer interactions, wireless systems serve as the foundation for intuitive and responsive interfaces, enabling natural interactions between individuals and digital devices. Moreover, in medical informatics, wireless technologies play a pivotal role in remote patient monitoring, facilitating the real-time collection and transmission of vital health data, thereby revolutionizing healthcare delivery. Within health informatics, these systems support the secure exchange of medical information, contributing to data-driven decision making and the improvement of healthcare outcomes. Social informatics benefit from wireless communication by fostering connectivity, enabling instant communication and facilitating the sharing of information, which is integral to modern social interactions. In essence, wireless communication systems are the linchpin that underpins the seamless integration of technology into our daily lives across these diverse fields, enhancing user experiences, expanding healthcare capabilities, and shaping the way we interact with and benefit from digital technology.
