Human Science and Technologies for Defence Networks and Applications Based on Intelligent Algorithms and Smart Sensors

Dear Colleagues,

In the defence network domain, human performance plays a key role for successful operations and combat. Human factors are deemed to be the most important and critical in defence operations and systems including networks and applications. This Special Issue aims at enhancing the capability of humans, their cognitive and physical performance, survivability, and protection at the individual as well as group levels. This includes studies into:

• AI (machine learning) to collect, transmit, process and create meaningful and effective data
• Human sensory, perceptual and cognitive processes
• Algorithms for situation and decision making
• Activity Recognition (AR) in line with health data
• Impact and measurement of stressors on human performance based on wearables and sensor networks
• Behaviour analysis and wellbeing of individuals
• Aspects of health training and treatments and/or technologies to enhance individual physical and mental performance
• Communications with humans and human-machine interfaces.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Sensors 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 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.
