Summary

Modern-day robotization, LLM, Createch and related technologies and algorithms offer change for an improved and more sustainable society, where software solutions thrive and make life better for us all.

We appreciate studies that take into account both the academic and practical insights. The special looks for front-line Robtization, Automation, Algorithm, related Createch, Software and technology solutions, in modern digitalized societies for better, sustainable and more economically feasible pathways to reduce unnecessary suffering, to find new development directions and to push forward societal and technologies sustainable development.

We particularly welcome articles with the following themes:
• Software and automation development for industrial and societal sustainable development benefits.
• Automation, LLM and robotization algorithms and solutions development, case studies and novel solutions on ongoing research streams.
• Interdisciplinary work connecting multiple sectors of research and/or industry applications together.
• Applied case studies, showcasing how Software, Algorithms, Createch or related tools/solutions are used in practice.
• Investigations into (end)user motivation and the design solutions for engaging with digital environments and solutions in connection with automation or robotics.
• Innovations in data visualization, storytelling, simulation, and interaction design that enhance social and sustainable outcomes.
