Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
By using controller intelligence and programmability, software-defined networking (SDN) could dynamically and efficiently manage resources in order to provide a wide range of different services. SDN enables network systems to coordinate and estimate available resources, as well as dynamically adapt to the environment to optimize resource consumption. Artificial intelligence and machine learning are proving to be effective methods of increasing the intelligence of SDN controllers. Techniques such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) are useful in network communication because they allow for rapid adaptability. It is possible to efficiently use the SDN controller’s increased intelligence in the context of the software-defined Internet of Things (SD-IoT). A controller trained with powerful AI and machine learning algorithms could improve the supply of end-to-end (E2E) services, security, and resource management in the SD-IoT environment. This Special Issue looks forward to providing the most up-to-date information on state-of-the-art SDN technologies based on machine learning and AI methods, as well as new research findings involving a broad variety of features within intelligent SDN technology for SD-IoT.
This Special Issue’s topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Load balancing in SD-IoT;
- Controller placement in SD-IoT;
- Ultra-reliable low-latency-based SD-IoT;
- Artificial intelligence-enabled SD-IoT;
- Security and reliability in SD-IoT;
- Leveraging NFV in SD-IoT;
- MEC-based efficient solutions in SD-IoT;
- Machine learning-based SD-IoT;
- Energy-efficient SD-IoT-based solutions;
- Massive machine type communication leveraging 5G in SD-IoT;
- Network slicing in SD-IoT leveraging 5G;
- Named data leveraging SD-IoT;
- DDoS attack detection and prevention mechanisms in SD-IoT;
- Reinforcement learning-based SD-IoT.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net 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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
