MDPI Network - Special Issue on Advances in Edge and Cloud Computing

MDPI Network SI AECC 2022


Computing Systems Remote Sensing





Currently, we are witnessing a proliferation of services and applications that are provided at the edge of the Internet. The Internet edge includes traditional access networks, such as wireless local area networks (WiFi), wireless metropolitan area networks (3G, 4G, and 5G), as well as various emerging systems, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), smart homes, smart cities, and connected vehicle systems. Although the requirements from edge services and applications are becoming higher and higher, edge devices (such as mobile phones, tablets, sensors, autonomous agents, and other IoT devices) are still limited in terms of storage size, computation capacity, communication bandwidth, battery life, etc. Recently, the edge computing paradigm, which extends cloud computing to the edge of the Internet, has been proposed to support various services and applications at the edge of the Internet.
In this Special Issue, we invite submissions of original research in various fields closely related to edge and cloud computing, such as fog computing, dew computing, cloudlets, mobile edge computing, multi-access edge computing, edge-computing-assisted intelligence systems, emerging applications with edge computing, IoT systems, smart homes, smart cities, connected vehicles, etc.

Manuscript Submission Information:
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Detailed information can be found here: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/network/special_issues/edge_cloud_comput
Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the MDPI Network 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. Network is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
