Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will focus on the applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the Internet of Things (IoT) and information retrieval. The following are some of the specific areas that will be covered:

  • Swarm intelligence: the use of AI algorithms inspired by the behavior of insects or animals.
  • Examples of application in IoT and information retrieval:

    IoT: Swarm intelligence can be used to control, optimize, and coordinate large numbers of IoT devices. For example, it can be used to manage traffic in smart cities or to control the operation of smart grids.

    Information retrieval: Swarm intelligence can be used to improve the accuracy and efficiency of information retrieval. For example, it can be used to identify relevant documents in a large corpus or to rank search results.

  • Fuzzy logic: the use of fuzzy logic to model and make decisions in uncertain environments.
  • Examples of application in IoT and information retrieval:

    IoT: Fuzzy logic can be used to handle uncertainty in IoT data. For example, it can be used to estimate the battery level of a wearable device or to predict the failure of an IoT device.

    Information retrieval: Fuzzy logic can be used to improve the relevance of search results. For example, it can be used to take into account the user's context when ranking search results.

  • Cloud computing: The use of cloud computing as a platform for AI applications.
  • Examples of application in IoT and information retrieval:

    IoT: Cloud computing can be used to store and process data from IoT devices. This can help to reduce the cost and complexity of IoT deployments.

    Information retrieval: Cloud computing can be used to scale up AI-powered information retrieval systems. This can help to meet the needs of large-scale applications, such as those used by e-commerce companies or social media platforms.

In addition to these specific areas, this Special Issue will also cover the following:

  • IoT: The use of AI for monitoring and controlling IoT devices.
  • Information retrieval: the use of AI for indexing and searching for information.

This Special Issue will also include interviews with experts, book reviews, and a summary of the main findings from the published articles.

This Special Issue is intended to be a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and practitioners interested in AI in IoT and information retrieval. It will also contribute to the wider dissemination of knowledge about AI among the general public.

The scope of this Special Issue is broad and covers a variety of topics related to the applications of AI in IoT and information retrieval. The specific areas listed above are intended to provide a starting point for the discussion, but this Special Issue is not limited to these topics.

Additional topics:

  • The use of AI for security and privacy in IoT and information retrieval systems.
  • The ethical implications of the use of AI in IoT and information retrieval systems.
  • The future of AI in IoT and information retrieval.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

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-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics 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 2400 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.
