IoT Sensor Systems: Design, Interfaces, Signals, Processing, and Applications: 2nd edition

Dear Colleagues,

Following the success of the first edition of our Special Issue, entitled “IoT Sensor Systems: Design, Interfaces, Signals, Processing, and Applications”, we invite our international colleagues to contribute their original research articles and reviews to its second edition.

Internet of Things (IoT) sensor systems have already been conceptually established in the scientific world. However, this area of study continues to transform in terms of system design, interfaces, and process. As such, the applications of IoT sensor systems are developing quickly; encompassing almost every branch of engineering, science, and technology, they have become increasingly relevant to achieving more efficient organization and better management of modern communication systems. IoT sensor systems comprise smart techniques that foster the research and development of real-time, scalable, and reliable networks, and pave the way to a research paradigm that includes next-generation computation technology.

The objective of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive platform for academics, researchers, engineers, and industry professionals in this field to share their research findings. Both original research articles and reviews are welcome, and research areas may cover (but are not limited to) the following:

• Techniques for exploring the design space of IoT devices and systems;
• Power, energy, efficient resource management, and energy harvesting;
• Things to cloud: computation and communication gateways;
• Miniaturization: sensors, CPUs, and networks;
• Analysis of IoT interconnections among ISPs—QoS, scalability, performance, and interference;
• Semantic technologies: information and data models for interoperability;
• Virtualization: multiple aggregated sensors, or a sensor shared by multiple users;
• Privacy/security/trust/identity/anonymity target prediction;
• Design principles and best practices for developing IoT applications;
• Green IoT: sustainable design and technologies.

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-anonymized 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.
