Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The industrial development of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has contributed significantly to improve the efficiency of both productivity and control systems, including self-organization, intelligent-processing capability, and flexibility. In this regard, industrial systems of WSNs are faced by growing demands for rapid responses to high-scale and real-time events. Therefore, virtual network embedding for industrial WSNs aims to support on-demand sharing of sensing network functionality within the limited resources (e.g, energy, CPU, memory, and bandwidth) of the system. This Special Issue seeks innovative works on a wide range of research topics for virtual network embedding (VNE) solutions to allocate industrial WNS resources efficiently to sense requests dynamically among multiple virtual networks, spanning both theoretical and systems research, including results from industry and academic/industrial collaborations, related but not restricted to the following topics:
  • WSNs virtualizaion technology
  • WSNs virtualization using SDN technology
  • Virtual vehicular cloud
  • Virtual mobile edge computing
  • Virtual network security techniques
  • Efficient offloading techniques
  • Efficient using machine learning techniques
  • Efficient load balancing techniques
  • Efficient resurce allocation

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.
