Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Smart grids transform the traditional power grid into a highly dynamic, interactive, and efficient system. This transformation is in part driven by advances in computer science, including digital signal processing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data analytics, and cybersecurity.

The Special Issue on “New Trends on Computer Science for Smart Grids” seeks original and high-quality research contributions exploring the latest advancements in computer science and their applications in various aspects of smart grids, addressing the following topics of interest which include but are not limited to:

  • Artificial intelligence and machine learning for smart grid applications;
  • Big data analytics for smart grids;
  • Optimization techniques for smart grids;
  • Cybersecurity for smart grids;
  • Communication and networking technologies for smart grids;
  • Edge computing for smart grids;
  • Control and stability for smart grids;
  • Power quality monitoring and assessment on smart grids.

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. Applied Sciences 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.
