Smart Communication Protocols and Algorithms for Sensor Networks
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The use of smart communication systems is becoming one of the key issues to provide high performance communication systems for sensor networks, deployed in any type of environment, such as cities, rural areas, and underwater areas. Technical advances in such environments will benefit human quality-of-life, increase world sustainability, and decrease the production costs in agriculture and aquaculture.
Selected excellent papers from the following conferences are also welcome to be published in the special issue.
- CCF National Conference of Computer Applications (CCF NCCA 2022)
- International Conference on Industrial Application of Artificial Intelligence (IAAI 2022)
- The Seventh International Conference of Pioneering Computer Scientists, Engineers and Educators (ICPCSEE 2022)

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. 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.
