Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) raise a number of interesting and undiscovered algorithmic issues, but traditional techniques are not sufficient to solve these problems in the right way. This is specifically due to constrained energy and computation capability, nondeterministic sensor failures, channel impairments, node mobility, hostile and distrusted environments, and even external attackers in WSNs. In all these issues, WSNs exhibit substantial vulnerability when compared to other networks. It is challenging to design robust and long-lived WSNs by devising novel algorithms or developing new theories whilst introducing minimal communication overhead and energy consumption. However, the algorithmic and theoretical issues in WSNs were not fully explored. The main focus of this special issue is devoted to deeper understanding of the algorithms and theories which are developed to build up WSNs.

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.
