Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Autonomous vehicles are growing in popularity, with many new applications emerging in different environments and architectures, e.g., cloud/edge/fog computing. The increasing attention and need for these systems are forcing us to take a deeper look into the challenges associated with them. Resource management, i.e., appropriate allocation of resources to tasks, is one of the challenges of this type of system. Additionally, since these devices are heterogeneous, i.e., they have the different processing and transferring power, memory, sensors, bandwidth, batteries, etc., some may not be able to respond in the necessary time and with the appropriate energy expenditure and have to offload part of their computation tasks to other devices. This cooperation involves a range of challenges, such as trust and reliability, which should be considered in resource management strategies. Through machine learning algorithms, it is hoped that these systems will act intelligently and autonomously to a significant extent.
We welcome innovative contributions on optimization algorithms for autonomous vehicles. Topics include but are not limited to:
- Cloud/edge/fog computing;
- Autonomous vehicles;
- Resource management;
- Task scheduling;
- Computation offloading;
- Trusted and reliable cooperation;
- Machine learning;
- Resource 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. Algorithms 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 1600 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.
