Integrated Sensing, Communication, and Computing Networks for IoT Applications

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the number of new IoT applications has been multiplying unprecedentedly, such as digital twins, extended reality, and autonomous systems. This prompts a novel design paradigm of integrated sensing, communication, and computing networks which can provide data generation, exchanging and processing data in a comprehensive manner by jointly managing sensing, communication, and computing resources. However, there are still many challenges with such an integrated network, including a proper integrated sensing, communication, and computing protocol, the trade-off among different dimensional metrics, and the deployment of servers, sensors, and IoT devices. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to seek high-quality papers from academics and industry-related researchers of ubiquitous IoT, integrated sensing, communication, and computing resource management, who conduct research on the development of resource management and networking technologies for IoT systems and applications and present the most recently advanced methods and applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Integrated sensing and communication technologies for IoT systems;
• Integrated communication and computing technologies for IoT systems;
• Integrated sensing, communication, and computing technologies for IoT systems;
• The platform and testbed for integrated sensing, communication, and computing networks;
• Resource management for IoT systems;
• The development of novel IoT applications;
• Security and privacy for IoT systems;
• Novel technologies for IoT systems

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. Sensors 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.
