Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the end of Moore’s law and technology scaling approaching, research communities have been looking at a new innovative alternative method of continuing the advancement of computational performance. In this regard, neuromorphic computing is an emerging field that has the potential to drastically influence every human’s life in future decades. Since the key concept of neuromorphic computing was proposed in the 1980s, the field has continued to evolve and encompass a wider variety of applications. In recent years, neuromorphic computing has gained significant attention and interest from both research and industry communities. Fundamentally, neuromorphic computing explores the computing process of the brain and attempts to replicate it onto modern electronic hardware. It offers improvements to overcome the limitations associated with current computer architecture, von Neumann architecture, and will lead to more efficient computing, the easier development of machine learning, and further integration of electronics and biology.
In this Special Issue, we welcome the submission of up-to-date advancements, improvements, and innovations in the field of neuromorphic computing. This Special Issue invites original research focused on synaptic device material (organinc/inorganic), models, circuit implementation, system configurations, and algorithmic investigations. Considering the wide usability of neuromorphic computing, applications to various areas such as healthcare, signal processing (image/video/sound), industrial production/optimization, and artificial intelligence (edge device, large scale) are also welcome.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
