Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Mobile Sensing and Computing in the Internet of Things is a crucial research area that enables real-time data collection, processing, and decision-making in dynamic environments. By leveraging mobile devices, sensors, and edge computing, this technology enhances the adaptability and efficiency of IoT applications, such as smart cities, healthcare, and intelligent transportation. Mobile sensing improves data accuracy and responsiveness, reducing reliance on centralized cloud computing while optimizing energy consumption and latency. With advancements in 5G, AI, and edge computing, mobile sensing plays a pivotal role in enabling context-aware and autonomous systems. Research in this field drives innovations in ubiquitous computing, human-centric sensing, and cyber-physical systems, making IoT solutions more scalable, secure, and intelligent for future applications.

This Special Issue therefore aims to put together original research and review articles on recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of Mobile Sensing and Computing in the Internet of Things.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  •  AIDriven Mobile Sensing and Data Analytics.
  •  Ubiquitous Computing Technology.
  •  EnergyEfficient Mobile Sensing and Computing.
  •  Autonomous and Collaborative Mobile Sensing Networks.
  •  Integration of AI and Machine Learning in IoT.
  •  Crowdsensing and Participatory Sensing in Smart Cities.
  •  MultiModal Sensor Fusion in IoT.
  •  5G and Beyond for Mobile Sensing and Computing.
  •  Development of Smart Wearable Devices.
  •  HumanCentric Mobile Sensing for Smart Healthcare.
  •  Security and Privacy in Mobile Sensing IoT Systems.
  •  Edge Computing for RealTime Mobile Sensing.
  •  Integration of Blockchain for Secure Mobile Sensing and Computing.
  •  Standardization of IoT Protocols.
  •  Environmental Monitoring through Mobile Sensing and Computing.
  •  IoT Applications with Mobile Sensing and Computing.

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.
