Computing and Applications for Wireless and Mobile Networks

Dear Colleagues,

Wireless networking and communication technologies already have huge impact in a wide range of applications, including connected industry 4.0, precision and smart agriculture, robotics, transportation, energy and smart grids, health and fintech, and more. However, wireless networks also face many challenges, mainly caused by communication failures, storage and computation limitations, and limited power supply, which can be effectively addressed by intelligent computing. With the development of wireless networks, edge computing and mobile computing have played a huge role in the application field. Under the framework of mobile computing and wireless networks, users can quickly obtain effective information and save costs. Although mobile computing has achieved good development in communication networks, its security still needs further research and improvement.

This Special Issue welcomes state-of-the-art and high-quality research works describing practical and theoretical solutions to mobile computing, wireless networks, and security.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Design, development, and implementation for wireless and mobile networks;
• Algorithms, architectures, and applications for wireless sensor networks (WSNs), wireless ad hoc networks (WANETs), and vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs);
• Algorithms, architectures, and applications for wireless local area networks (WLANs), Internet of Things (IoTs), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs);
• Algorithms, architectures, and applications for cellular mobile communication networks (5G, B5G, and 6G);
• Applications for cloud computing, fog computing, and edge computing technologies;
• Applications for industry 4.0, smart agricultures, and smart cities;
• Architecture and services for mobile computing and wireless networks;
• Intelligent computing and applications for wireless and mobile networks;
• Security and privacy for wireless and mobile networks;
• Algorithm or protocol design for secure computing 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.
