Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
“Symmetry” has reach in almost every discipline of information technology. Its elements appear in many applications, for example, object recognition, engineering design, music composition, and market prediction. By using the properties of “symmetry”, intelligent systems, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber–Physical Systems (CPS), can be made more efficient and effective. The changes in industry over the last decade as a result of innovative technologies and businesses challenging competitiveness have been overwhelming. These changes are partly due to the emergence of new technologies such as the IoT, CPS, deep learning, self-media, and the shared economy and partly due to the international trade protection, which constrains the development of global supply chain and regional tax-free agreements. The aim of this Special Issue is to call attention to the important trend of using Symmetry/Asymmetry in information technology. We are collaborating with several conferences on this theme and are also open for submissions (research and review articles) covering (though not limited to) the following topics:
- Symmetry/asymmetry in information technology;
- Symmetry/asymmetry and heuristics and metaheuristics;
- Symmetry/asymmetry algorithms.

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. Symmetry 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 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.
