Special Issue on Emerging Multidisciplinary Directions in Engineering, Computing, and Applied Sciences

Overview

Research today often crosses the lines between computing, engineering, science, and health. Problems like clean energy, smart healthcare, climate change, and digital transformation cannot be solved by one field alone. This special issue is for authors who want to show how combining ideas from different areas can create better solutions. We welcome papers that present new methods, practical applications, or reviews that make it easier for others to learn and build on your work. The special issue aim is to provide a space where researchers from different backgrounds can share their ideas and inspire collaboration across disciplines.
