Optics and Lasers in Engineering

ISSN: 0143-8166
5 Year impact factor: 4.2
Impact factor: 3.5

Optics and Lasers in Engineering aims at providing an international forum for the interchange of information on the development of optical techniques and laser technology in engineering. Emphasis is placed on contributions targeted at the practical use of methods and devices, the development and enhancement of solutions and new theoretical concepts for experimental methods.Optics and Lasers in Engineering reflects the main areas in which optical methods are being used and developed for an engineering environment. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers focusing on parameter optimization or computational issues are not suitable. Similarly, papers focussed on an application rather than the optical method fall outside the journal's scope. The scope of the journal is defined to include the following:Optical Metrology Optical Methods for 3D visualization and virtual engineering Optical Techniques for Microsystems Imaging, Microscopy and Adaptive Optics Computational Imaging Laser methods in manufacturing Integrated optical and photonic sensors Optics and Photonics in Life Science Hyperspectral and spectroscopic methods Infrared and Terahertz techniques

Tremendous advancements in a multitude of technologies ranging from personalized and embedded smart devices (e.g., smartphones, sensors, wearables, IoT) to ubiquitous connectivity through wireless mobile communications and cognitive networking infrastructures, to advanced computing techniques (including mobile edge/fog/cloud, data analytics and machine learning) and user-friendly middleware services and platforms have significantly contributed to the unprecedented advances in pervasive and mobile computing.Such cutting-edge pervasive technologies and paradigms have led to the convergence of cyber-physical-human systems with applications to smart environments (e.g., smart homes and cities, smart grid, smart transportation, smart health, smart agriculture) with the goal to improve human experience and quality of life without explicit awareness of the underlying communications and computing technologies. Additionally, the huge amount of (real-time) data collected via pervasive devices coupled with advanced data analytic, machine learning and AI (Artificial Intelligence) techniques for reliable prediction and decision-making are making breakthrough research in pervasive computing and applications, such as self-driving cars, predictive maintenance in the industry 4.0 environments, mobile recommendation systems, etc.The Pervasive and Mobile Computing Journal (PMC) is a high-impact, peer-reviewed technical journal that publishes high-quality scientific articles spanning theory and practice, and covering all aspects of pervasive and mobile computing and systems.

Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing

ISSN: 0736-5845
5 Year impact factor: 8.9
Impact factor: 9.1

The emphasis of the journal Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing is on disseminating the application of research to the development of new or improved industrially-relevan... robotics, manufacturing technologies, and innovative manufacturing strategies. Preference is given to papers describing original research that includes both theory and experimental validation. Comprehensive review papers on topical issues related to robotics and manufacturing will also be considered. Papers on conventional machining processes, modelling and simulation, supply chain management, and resource optimisation, will generally be considered out of scope, as there are other more appropriate journals in these areas. Overly theoretical or mathematical papers will be directed to other more appropriate journals as well. Original papers are welcomed in the areas of industrial robotics, human-robot collaborative manufacturing, cloud-based manufacturing, cyber-physical production systems, big data analytics in manufacturing, smart mechatronics, machine learning, adaptive and sustainable manufacturing, and other fields involving unique manufacturing technologies.

Sustainable Production and Consumption

ISSN: 2352-5509
5 Year impact factor: 10.3
Impact factor: 10.9

Publication of the Institution of Chemical Engineers Official Journal of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering: Part ESustainable production and consumption can be defined as production and use of products and services in a manner that is socially beneficial, economically viable and environmentally benign over their whole life cycle. The journal aims to provide a leading platform for publishing high-quality interdisciplinary papers on research and practice in this emerging field. It looks uniquely at the interactions between technology, consumption and policy to help identify more-sustainable solutions for both production and consumption systems.Papers from engineers, natural and social scientists as well as philosophers are invited and those at the interface between these disciplines are particularly encouraged.All papers should include some elements of life cycle thinking and should clearly demonstrate that they are addressing topics related to sustainable production and consumption. The areas and topics covered by the journal include but are not limited to:Concepts and approachesCircular EconomyClean technology/cleaner productionClimate change mitigationConsumer engagement and communication Corporate social responsibility Eco-efficiencyEcosys... servicesEthical investment and consumptionSustainab... chemistry Industrial ecologyIntra/Interge... equity Life cycle managementLife cycle thinking Life cycle sustainability assessment Producer responsibilityReboun... effectSupply chain management Sustainable business models Sustainable designSustainable lifestylesSustainabl... policiesSustainable procurementSustainab... products and servicesToolsAnalysi... of consumer preferences and attitudes Economic measures and instrumentsIntegrate... product policies Internalisation of environmental and social costsLife cycle assessment Life cycle costing Material flow analysisScenario analysis Social life cycle assessment Stakeholder analysisSustainabili... indicatorsSectorsChe... and buildingsEnergyFinan...
