Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

ICT supports our society in responding to increased human pressure on Earth. Sustainable development challenges urban areas to consume resources more efficiently, to optimize operations, to boost people’s involvement in governance, and to raise the quality of life and environment. Late technological, environmental, and social changes determine the need for articulated strategies that address these challenges, comprehensive models of real problems, and effective ICT solutions.

Further, algorithms have the potential to revolutionize urban planning, infrastructure management, and resource allocation. They can help optimize energy consumption, reduce waste generation, and improve transportation systems. Moreover, algorithms can be used to analyze data from various sources, including sensors, social media, and citizen feedback, and to provide insights into urban challenges and opportunities.

The aim of this Special Issue is to address the broad range of societal issues raised by modern urban communities as well as to explore the power of algorithms’ application within the sustainable development of smart cities. The efficient use of physical infrastructure, enhancement of public health and public education, lower environmental impact, and better resilience of the inhabitants as well as of the city structures are the expected topics of interest. Researchers and practitioners working in artificial intelligence, city logistics, internet of things, data analytics, etc., are invited to submit their original and unpublished works to this Special Issue. Of particular interest are papers describing integrated approaches, for example, those including computer vision, optimization methods, GIS, etc.

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. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1600 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.
