The key idea is to provide a higher level of automation by combining technologies such as Industrial IoT (IIoT), cloud computing, machine learning (ML) and advanced robotics to enable the creation of interconnected, responsive, intelligent and self-optimizing manufacturing processes and systems. The increased automation can: 1. Significantly enhance "operational efficiency" through real-time process analytics or even end-to-end process control. 2. Significantly enhance "overall productivity" by realizing zero-downtime through proactive maintenance via the implementation of ‘digital twins'. Implementation of either real-time process analytics or digital twining is geared to generate a huge volume of heterogeneous data flows. Consequently, the design of communication interfaces to support inter-connectivity must be optimized to enable convergence between legacy operations technology (OT) and next-generation IIoT. This special issue solicits original research papers focused on Design and Analysis of: 1. Ultra-reliable Low-Latency Connectivity Interfaces for IIoT Networks 2. Spectrum Management and Coexistence Issues for IIoT Networks 3. Architecture and Protocols for IIoT Networks 4. Novel ML methods for implementing Self-X capabilities in IIoT Networks 5. Resource Allocation and Management for IIoT Networks 6. Security, Privacy and Trust issues in IIoT deployments 7. Interoperability and Convergence Issues for legacy OT and IIoT Networks 8. Application and Deployment Specific Issues for IIoT Networks Submission Guidelines All submissions have to be prepared according to the Information for Authors as published in the Journal website and must be submitted via EDAS.

Future drones-in-the-city will become aerial sensing platforms that will be integrated into urban sensing networks, and the data they generate will be merged with the data flow coming from existing sensors through IoT platforms. > Apart from the legislative changes needed to make urban drone-based applications feasible, it is essential to ensure the efficient and safe operation of UAV fleets within a restrictive and complex operating area. Also essential is enabling the accurate acquisition, secure transmission and correct interpretation of drone-retrieved information to allow new applications and business models to develop. > This theme issue aims to bring together contributions that examine the operational, business and social challenges that the use of drones in urban environments pose. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: > The design, development and validation of unmanned traffic management (UTM) platforms in urban areas, including issues of trajectory optimization and synchronization, autonomous navigation and mechanism to guarantee flight safety (‘Sense & Avoid’) > Information fusion architectures for acquisition, visualization and interpretation of city data, with a special focus on the integration and use of UAV sensor information as part of existing IoT platforms > Integration of UAVs and future communication networks such as 5G > Real-time video recognition, anomaly detection, adaptive video streaming and other challenges related to video sensing in UAVs > Visualization and management of big information flows through novel multimodal interaction including augmented/virtual reality > Novel interaction paradigms for drone and drone fleet management and control > Advances in enabling technologies to support UTM and drone-based applications including among others artificial intelligence, machine learning, machine vision, context-based fusion and multimodal interaction techniques > Demonstrations and evaluations of novel services and applications of UAVs as urban sensor and robot platforms (e.g. for emergency support, resource monitoring, logistics and distribution) through simulations and tests with real flights > Analysis of privacy, security and other legal issues generated by the presence of UAVs in urban areas > Models to evaluate flight efficiency and fleet drone management. > Pervasive citizen applications based on drone information. > Submissions > Submissions should be original papers and should not be under consideration in other publications.
