Parallel Blockchain: An Architecture for CPSS-Based Smart Societies

Time flies fast, it has been already one year since I was appointed as the Editor-in-Chief of this great publication, and thanks to the strong support and dedication of our associate editors, editorial staff, anonymous reviewers, and authors, we have made solid progress and I really enjoy my work and our achievement so far. At this point, significant improvements in the timeliness and quality of the review process, as well as the numbers of manuscripts submitted and articles published have been accomplished.
