Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The primary aim of the Internet of Things is constant, continuous, and autonomous monitoring. Due to their large-scale deployability, such IoT sensors have been widely used in industries as well as public spaces. More recently, due to the reduction in the cost of components, sensors or edge devices have also been deployed for environmental monitoring. There has been an increase in computational capacity of low-power microprocessors that can be used to design such edge devices. This has enabled a wide range of edge computing tools that can perform intelligent monitoring with reduced power consumption. In some cases, such devices may involve Edge AI to make localized decisions, or in other cases, they may focus on efficient communication.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews regarding the design of edge devices (or smart sensor devices) and any associated cloud platforms for intelligent monitoring and decision making are welcome. It can also focus on intelligence on the edge or investigate the complex relationship between power and computational flexibility for edge computing.
Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Autonomous edge computing;
- Monitoring applications based on IoT;
- LPWAN or other communication mechanisms;
- Micro-controllers and corresponding embedded system designs;
- Sensors and low-power sensing mechanisms.

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. Electronics 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.
