SC 2019 - Special Issue on Soft Computing Approaches for sustainable systems

To deal with uncertain and imprecise problems of real world, Sustainable Systems with Soft Computing approaches proved to be successful in multi-criteria control strategies ranging from urban infrastructure ecology to renewable electricity and corporate environmental strategy. Soft computing techniques offer an effective solution for studying and modelling the stochastic behaviour of sustainable systems and their ability to handle imprecise information has been a key factor for their increasing demand.
Modern environmental challenges like Depletion of fossil fuels, Global warming, Water scarcity, loss of biodiversity can be dealt intelligently using soft computing techniques with sustainable systems. Integration of soft computing approaches via Artificial Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithms, Cluster Analysis, Fuzzy Logic, Evolutionary Computation, Swarm Intelligence and their applications in sustainable systems helps to solve lots of social concerns.
This special issue aims to gather latest research and development achievements in Soft Computing Approaches for sustainable systems and to promote their applications in all important fields with society needs. List of detail topics including, but not limited to:
· Multilayer perceptron neural networks (MLP) in sustainable systems
· Analysis, modelling, simulation and optimization of sustainable systems algorithms
· Renewable generation technologies
· Sustainable design and models for disaster management
· Smart grid-connected renewable energy systems
· Sustainable systems with Artificial Intelligence (AI)
· Human-centred sustainable systems
