Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Computers is running this Special Issue entitled “AI in Its Ecosystem.” Like any other branch of science or technology, AI is living in an ecosystem. The ecosystem of AI consists of the following items:

  • Computational Models and Environments: Including the platforms, platforms, environments, or computing models on top of which AI applications can run. To mention a few, parallel and distributed computing, networking environments, Cloud computing, Edge computing, Fog computing, quantum computing, and the IoT lie in this category.
  • Enablers: Including theories, sciences, techniques, and technologies that support the implementation of AI models. Among these enablers, one may refer to optimization, data sciences, hardware and software technologies, etc.
  • Applications: Including the scenarios, environments, and areas where AI is used. Healthcare and medical technology, biology, medical sciences, security, social sciences, physical sciences, engineering, and technology are good examples.

This Special Issue accepts papers related to the intersection of AI and its ecosystem. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • The application of optimization, data sciences, hardware, and software technologies, etc., in the design and implementation of AI models.
  • AI over parallel and distributed systems, networks and the internet, Cloud computing systems, Edge computing systems, Fog computing systems, quantum computing, and the IoT.
  • The application of AI in healthcare and medical technology, biology, medical sciences, security, social sciences, and physical sciences, as well as engineering and technology.

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. Computers 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 1800 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.
