Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The use of intelligent sensors and actuators to improve manufacturing and industrial processes is known as the industrial internet of things (IIoT). IIoT, also referred to as industry 4.0 or the industrial internet, makes use of real-time analytics and smart machines to make the most of the data that “dumb machines” have been producing in industrial settings for years. The underlying tenet of IIoT is that smart machines are superior to humans at both data collection and real-time analysis, as well as at conveying critical information that can be used to make business decisions more quickly and accurately.
Production businesses may harness the power of data and improve overall production efficiencies by implementing smart manufacturing methods. One of the main facilitators of Industry 4.0, internet of things (IoT) technologies have penetrated the industrial sector, generating factory and warehouse operations to support smart manufacturing. The industrial internet of things is a term that is commonly used to describe these advanced technologies (IIoT). In order to increase factory efficiency, cut costs, and lower operator risk, IIoT may convert linear manufacturing supply chains into connected digital supply networks (DSNs). To create useful IIoT systems, we must, however, handle a number of technological issues, including network connectivity, usability, data storage, and security.
This Special Issue seeks to present high-quality research on recent developments in the fields of smart manufacturing systems and the industrial internet of things. The list of keywords below does not only comprise the subjects that are of interest.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com 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. Computers is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
