Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the development and application of sensor and actuator networks across various domains. Research includes intelligent automation in manufacturing, batteryless sensor nodes powered by harvested energy, path optimization for uncrewed vehicles, and image forgery detection. Other areas of investigation involve radio signal propagation in buildings, structural health monitoring using fiber Bragg gratings, vibration energy harvesting, optical wireless sensor networks, and unobtrusive physiological monitoring. The journal also covers physics-guided semantic classification of 3D structural edges, intrusion detection systems for IoT networks, optimization of sensor placement for structural health monitoring, bioelectrical nanonetworks, formal verification of federated learning systems, resource management in optical fiber networks, crowdsensing for indoor localization, intelligent control of ozone generators, vehicle networking, image-based analysis for food quality control, prediction of systemic risk in financial markets, security in big data platforms, multimodal frameworks for diagnosing neurodevelopmental disorders, smart helmet architectures for accident detection, adaptive mobile edge solutions for communication networks, and underwater wireless optical communication.
