Special Issue Information

Blockchain technology (BCT) is becoming an essential aspect of the advancement of science. When the term 'blockchain' is spoken, terms such as decentralization and a single, open digital market spring to mind; on this decentralized digital network, global citizens may build new relationships without interference from a centralized authority. Different approaches have been used thus far to tackle complex issues. This technology makes applications in banking, smart contacts, e-commerce, ehealth, data storage, supply chain management, and the Internet of Things possible. For this reason, it seems sensible to think about blockchain as a generic technological concept. This technology category is described as those that can significantly alter social, economic, and construction systems in present-day society.

Aims and Scope:

1. Academic research on blockchain in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC)
industry
2. Application of smart contracts in the AEC industry
3. Application of Blockchain Technology for supply chain management (SCM) and circular
economy in the AEC industry
4. BIM and Blockchain Technology for increasing trust in project management
5. Security issues and testing in blockchains in the AEC industry
6. Blockchain-oriented software engineering blockchain technologies

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at https://tecnoscientifica.com/journal/csue by registering and logging in to this website. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline (June 30, 2023). 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 the submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Civil and Sustainable urban Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open-access semimonthly journal published by Tecno Scientifica.
