Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Internet of Things (IoT) plays an important role in the current and future generation of information, network, and communication development and applications. Smart IoT is an exciting emerging research field that has great potential to transform both our understanding of fundamental computer science principles and our standard of living. IoT is being employed in more and more areas, making “Everything Smart”, such as smart homes, smart cities, intelligent transportation, environment monitoring, security systems, and advanced manufacturing. It is crucial to be able to quickly analyze and learn from the massive amount of generated data. Current approaches for big data analytics require full data transfer to a platform with large computational power, such as the cloud. Given the projected explosion in the number of devices and the resulting data generation rate, this is not feasible. In addition, many other open problems and challenges still exist, such as AI-built security issues, cloud attacks, and botnet problems. The International Conference on Smart Internet of Things (SmartIoT) and the International Conference on Information Science and Technology (ICIST) focus on these challenges.
This Special Issue is dedicated to publishing original research papers which propose new methodologies, new research directions and discuss approaches or schemes for current existing issues. The key innovation is to use devices and computing power within the Internet of Things network itself to perform data analysis in a scalable, reliable fashion.
Papers from the conferences SmartIoT2022 and WASA2022 are especially welcomed.
Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:
- IoT Sensing, monitoring, networking and routing
- Big data analysis and cloud computing
- Edge computing/fog computing
- Smart cities, intelligent transportation and internet of vehicles
- Artificial intelligence, machine learning and evolutionary computing
- Social networks, multimedia and mobile computing
- Blockchain and emerging research or technologies
- Industrial 4.0 and industrial IoT
- Security and privacy for smart IoT or CPS
- Control and decision making for smart IoT or CPS

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. 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.
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.
