Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Studying Sensors, Algorithms, and Machines for Intelligent Micro- and Nano-Systems is essential for advancing technology and improving our daily lives. These systems are designed to be intelligent, meaning that they can perform complex tasks with high accuracy, speed, and efficiency. Sensors are critical in micro- and nano-systems as they detect and measure physical and chemical phenomena at a small scale. Advances in sensor technology have led to miniaturized devices that monitor parameters, such as temperature, pressure, and biological molecules. These sensors integrate with algorithms and machines to create intelligent systems that make decisions and perform actions based on collected data. Algorithms and machines are crucial in intelligent micro- and nano-systems. Machine learning analyzes data to identify patterns and correlations, improving decision-making. Machines, such as robots and drones, perform tasks in hazardous or inaccessible environments, such as space exploration or disaster response. Studying these systems leads to advancements in healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, and environmental monitoring, improving the quality of life worldwide. They enable faster and more accurate diagnoses, efficient production processes, and better natural resource management. Accordingly, this Special Issue invites original research articles, review articles, and communications that address fundamental challenges and opportunities in the design, modeling, and fabrication of intelligent micro- and nano-systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, sensors and actuators, machine learning algorithms, control systems, and applications in healthcare, energy, and environmental monitoring.

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. Micromachines 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 2600 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.
