Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The 1st International Online Conference on Technologies (IOCTe2026), organized by MDPI’s scientific journal Technologies in collaboration with our co-organizer, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, National University of Singapore (NUS), will take place from 11–13 November 2026. It aims to address the latest advancements in technological studies and their applications for shaping a sustainable and innovative future.
This conference will be structured around several key thematic sessions, including the following:
- S1. Information and Communication Technologies
- S2. Assistive Technologies
- S3. Innovations in Materials Technologies
- S4. Manufacturing Technologies
- S5. Environmental Technologies
- S6. Electrical Technologies
This event is completely free of charge for scholars to attend and upload and present their latest work on the conference’s platform. Outstanding contributions will be eligible for the conference awards. You can find more information via https://sciforum.net/event/IOCTe2026.
For selected papers that will be presented at this conference, authors are invited to submit extended versions of them to this Special Issue of Technologies afterwards, with a discount on the fees. Submitted papers should be increased to the size of regular research or review articles, with at least a 50% extension of new results. All submitted papers will undergo our standard peer-review procedure, and accepted papers will be published in an open access format in Technologies and compiled for the Special Issue website. There are no page limitations for this journal.
We also welcome scholars who will not be participating in the conference to submit research papers, reviews, and communications to the Special Issue.
Prof. Dr. Manoj Gupta
Guest Editor
