Aims & Scope

The Journal of Digital Food, Energy & Water Systems (JD-FEWS) is a peer-reviewed bi-annual publication that publishes recent and innovative deployment of emerging digital technologies in Food, Energy, and Water Systems. Food, energy, and water resources are interconnected scarce resources that require systems and technologies that will foster their sustainable management and effective utilization. The journal is also interested in articles that explore the nexus between at least two of these resources. The journal considers the following topics as long as they are deployed in the Food, Energy & Water space: Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Algorithm development, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain and distributed ledger technology, Case studies, Cybersecurity, Data mining & Big data, Human-Computer Interaction, Intelligent Forecasting, Internet of Things, Machine Learning, Mathematical Optimization, Robotics, System architectures, Wireless Sensor Networks.
