Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Computer-based systems are increasingly present in almost all aspects of modern society. From simple daily life activities to critical industrial control, everything is dependent on software running on a device, often controlled by a specifically tailored operating system. This trend is increasing, and new application scenarios are continuously being proposed. This leads to a demand for new types of operating system, which must support new features for new operational requirements, including security, power management, and device control, among many other aspects. At the same time, new applications are being put forward, addressing new types of system use, which, in turn, lead to new requirements for operating systems.
We are, therefore, interested in papers presenting advancements in topics including, but not limited to, the following:
- Innovative approaches to addressing new security issues;
- Novel applications of generic operating systems for new application scenarios;
- Improvements to power management suitable for IoT and edge computing;
- Ground-breaking new features to address emerging scenarios and operational concerns;
- Innovative operating system features that open up new avenues for modern applications;
- Case studies on the innovative use of computer-based systems and operating systems;
- Systematic surveys detailing new trends and open research issues in computer systems and operating systems.
