CALL FOR PAPERS

SIMULATION MODELLING PRACTICE AND THEORY (IF: 4.199) - Elsevier SPECIAL ISSUE ON: Cyber-Physical Systems, Digital Twins and Industry 4.0: The Role of Modeling and Simulation

https://bit.ly/3zaiLHP

THEME: ------ Recent technological advancements, such as the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud, fog and edge computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics, are driving the growing adoption of cyber-physical systems and digital twins in areas such as healthcare, transportation and critical infrastructure management. Cyber-physical systems and digital-twins are also taking center stage in manufacturing, contributing to the fourth industrial revolution, commonly known as Industry 4.0. They provide unparalleled flexibility and control, enabling the effective research and design of products, services and processes.

The scope of this Special Issue is to present state-of-the-art research related to cyber-physical systems, digital twins and Industry 4.0, with particular emphasis on the role of modeling and simulation in these areas.

Papers for the Special Issue must provide a substantial novel contribution and authors must carefully position their work with regard to the relevant scientific literature. They must clearly address research issues related to cyber-physical systems, digital twins and Industry 4.0 and showcase the role of modeling and simulation.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Modeling, development, verification and validation of digital twins. - Industrial human-robot interaction. - Leveraging cloud, fog and edge computing for cyber-physical systems and Industry 4.0. - Big data and AI for smart manufacturing and supply chain management. - Security issues in IoT-enabled cyber-physical systems. - Wireless sensor networks and low energy networks for Industry 4.0. - Digital twins for mobile networks and complex systems. - Edge intelligence for real-time monitoring and control. - Augmented/virtual reality in cyber-physical systems.
