Journal Guide

The Journal of Conflict & Security Law (JCSL) is a thrice yearly peer-reviewed journal aimed at academics, government officials, military lawyers, and lawyers working in the area, as well as individuals interested in the areas of arms control law, armed conflict law and collective security law, and the interfaces between them.

The Journal of Constructional Steel Research provides an international forum for the presentation and discussion of the latest developments in structural steel research and their applications. It is aimed not only at researchers but also at those likely to be most affected by research results, i.e. designers and fabricators. Original papers of a high standard dealing with all aspects of steel research including theoretical and experimental research on elements, assemblages, connection and material properties are considered for publication.Those presenting research findings in a form suitable for practical use are especially welcome. Papers reporting work in progress will also be included, provided the long-term practical implications of the research are evident, as will state-of-the-art papers, or those by designers and fabricators dealing with issues bearing directly on research.The journal will also present technical notes, book reviews, discussions and letters to the Editor. It is intended that at intervals summaries will be included indicating current research activities throughout the world, and reports of conferences and meetings related specifically to constructional steelwork. Announcements of conference and symposia are also included in the form of a calendar.

Journal of Control Science and Engineering is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles as well as review articles in all areas of control science and engineering.

The Journal of Control Theory and Applications publishes high-quality papers on original, theoretical and experimental research and development in the area of systems and control, including all aspects of control theory and its applications. Its function is to provide a forum for domestic, as well as international, scientists and engineers in this field to exchange their knowledge and experiences. Articles for submission may be survey papers, or reviews on well established or newly emerging research topics, techniques, etc.: or regular papers which describe new well developed theoretical results or applications: or brief papers which present new techniques, concepts, perspectives, etc.

Journal of Control, Automation and Electrical Systems, formerly Controle & Automacao, is the scientific journal of the Brazilian Society for Automatics (SBA).  The journal publishes original research papers as well as tutorials pertaining to industrial automation, intelligent systems, robotics, instrumentation, power electronics, power systems and control theory and applications. Contributions are welcome on research, development and/or innovation in any area of science or technology in which the novelty and implications to control and automation are made clear. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:• Alternative Sources of Energy• Automation Systems• Circuits and Systems• Computational Intelligence• Control Theory and Applications• Discrete Event Systems• Education in Control, Automation, Robotics and Mechatronics• Electrical Machines and Drives• Electric Power Systems• Electronic and Biomedical Instrumentation• Energy Efficiency• Intelligent Systems• Mechatronic Systems• Micro-grids and Intelligent Networks (Smart Grids)• Power Electronics• Robotics• Signal Processing• Systems Modelling, Identification, and Optimization   

The Journal of Cryptology is a forum for original results in all areas of modern information security. Both cryptography and cryptanalysis are covered, including information theoretic and complexity theoretic perspectives as well as implementation, application, and standards issues. Coverage includes such topics as public key and conventional algorithms and their implementations, cryptanalytic attacks, pseudo-random sequences, computational number theory, cryptographic protocols, untraceability, privacy, authentication, key management and quantum cryptography. In addition to full-length technical, survey, and historical articles, the journal publishes short notes. The Journal of Cryptology is the official journal of the International Association for Cryptologic Research.

JDR is an interdisciplinary journal, emphasising human aspects as a central issue of design through integrative studies of social sciences and design disciplines. Originally published as an electronic journal publishing articles including multimedia applications and hence allowing visual knowledge transfer, it is now also available in print.

Journal of Dynamical and Control Systems examines the entire spectrum of issues related to dynamical systems, focusing on the theory of smooth dynamical systems with analyses of measure-theoretical, topological, and bifurcational aspects. It covers all essential branches of the theory--local, semilocal, and global--including the theory of foliations. The journal also features in-depth papers devoted to control systems research that spotlight the geometric control theory, which unifies Lie-algebraic and differential-geometric methods of investigation in control and optimization, and ultimately relates to the general theory of dynamical systems. Journal of Dynamical and Control Systems presents peer-reviewed survey and original research articles. Accessible to a broad range of scholars, each survey paper contains all necessary definitions and explanations, a complete over-view of the problem discussed, and a description of its importance and relationship to basic research on the subject. This publication also f
