Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sensors are becoming omnipresent. They are a critical component of smart homes, smart cities, smart railways, wearables, health monitoring, consumer electronics, industrial automation, automotive industry, and agricultural and environmental monitoring, to mention but a few. Thus, it does not come as a surprise that the sensor market is currently one of the fastest growing markets globally, and it is predicted that it will maintain this growth rate into the future. At the same time, the ever-increasing use of sensors raises new security, privacy, and ethical concerns, as much of the data collected by sensors comprises sensitive personal information. This Special Issue aims to disseminate high quality papers addressing these aspects of sensor data processing, and propose novel solutions. We welcome contributions from both academia and industry.
