Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems – SDEWES 2023
The background of this Virtual Special Issue (VSI) of the Optimization and Engineering (OPTE) journal is the 2023 Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) Conference. This broad field was discussed by the participants of a conference held in 2023 –18th SDEWES Conference (Dubrovnik).
This VSI aims at bringing together articles that discuss recent advances of optimization methods and algorithms that integrate various life supporting systems. Very often a decision-making problem appears in the form of a parameter estimation problem, it can be formulated as an optimization model, and then solved using different optimization algorithms and techniques. All papers included in this VSI of the OPTE journal will consider aspects of numerical analysis, mathematical modeling, and computational methods involved in investigating, planning, and implementing sustainable development. In this context, the guest editors have confidence that the selected papers and addressed issues will substantially contribute to the increase of the knowledge body published in the OPTE journal and the VSI will be a significant platform for researchers to discuss, share, and disseminate new ideas.
Information on the upcoming SDEWES events and other related activities can be found in the website of the International Centre for Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES Centre) at www.sdewes.org.
The Special Issue will be limited to the conference participants. A number of papers with archival quality, presented at the SDEWES2023 conference, will be after the conference selected for the recommendation for submission in a Virtual Special Issue of the Optimization and Engineering journal. The submission procedure requires the submission of a manuscript to the Optimization and Engineering (OPTE) journal at https://www.springer.com/journal/11081 and select the special issue “SI: SDEWES2023”. All submissions must be original and may not be under review by another publication. Interested authors should consult the journal’s “Instructions for Authors”, at https://www.springer.com/journal/11081/submission-guidelines. All submitted papers will be reviewed on a peer-review basis as soon as they are received.
