A Special Issue is a collection of articles that concentrates on a topical research area within the scope of a journal. These Issues provide a venue for research on emerging areas, highlight important subdisciplines, or describe new cross-disciplinary applications.
Last year, we successfully launched over 700 Special Issues across our portfolio of Maths, Engineering and Computer Science journals.
Keep up to date with some of the hot topics this year with a selection of the most impactful Special Issues from 2021.
Wireless Sensors based on the Internet of Things in Journal of Sensors
The aim of this Special Issue is to discuss the application of IoT based wireless sensors and RFID cross-domain sensing methods.
Artificial Intelligence and Edge Computing in Mobile Information Systems in Mobile Information Systems
The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together original research articles and review articles talking about relevant recent developments in the field of Artificial intelligence (AI), edge computing (EC), and the internet of things (IoT).
