Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in computational methods are reshaping the field of informatics and expanding its applications across a wide range of digital and data-intensive contexts. The rapid growth of online platforms, intelligent systems, organizational information infrastructures and digital health services has generated large volumes of behavioral, textual, visual, relational and multimodal data. At the same time, developments in artificial intelligence, machine learning, natural language processing, network analysis, optimization, predictive modeling and computational simulation have created new opportunities to transform complex data into actionable knowledge, system intelligence and evidence-based decision making.
This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for research on computational methods in informatics, with particular emphasis on both methodological innovation and application-oriented studies. It welcomes contributions that develop, adapt, or apply computational approaches to important problems in business informatics, health informatics, social informatics, computational communication, user behavior analytics, digital platforms, information systems and related domains. Studies that combine rigorous computational techniques with strong practical relevance, domain-specific insight and meaningful implications for real-world informatics applications are especially encouraged.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Mathematics 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 2600 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.
