Advanced Engineering Informatics
The science of supporting knowledge-intensive activitiesAdvanced computing methods and related technologies are changing the way engineers interact with the information infrastructure. Explicit knowledge representation formalisms and new reasoning techniques are no longer the sole territory of computer science. For knowledge-intensive tasks in engineering, a new philosophy and body of knowledge called Engineering Informatics is emerging.Advanced Engineering Informatics solicits research papers with particular emphases both on 'knowledge' and 'engineering applications'. As an international Journal, original papers typically:• Report progress in the engineering discipline of applying methods of engineering informatics. • Have engineering relevance and help provide the scientific base to make engineering decision-making more reliable, spontaneous and creative. • Contain novel research that demonstrates the science of supporting knowledge-intensive engineering tasks. • Validate the generality, power and scalability of new methods through vigorous evaluation, preferably both qualitatively and quantitatively.In addition, the Journal welcomes high quality review articles that summarise, compare, and evaluate methodologies and representations that are proposed for the field of engineering informatics. Similarly, summaries and comparisons of full-scale applications are welcomed, particularly those where scientific shortcomings have hindered success. Typically, such papers have expanded literature reviews and discussion of findings that reflect mastery of the current body of knowledge and propose novel additions to contemporary research.Papers missing explicit representation and use of knowledge, such as those describing soft computing techniques, mathematical optimization methods, pattern recognition techniques, and numerical computation methods, do not normally qualify for publication in the Journal. Papers must illustrate contributions using examples of automating and supporting knowledge intensive tasks in artifacts-centered engineering fields such as mechanical, manufacturing, architecture, civil, electrical, transportation, environmental, and chemical engineering. Papers that report application of an established method to a new engineering subdomain will qualify only if they convincingly demonstrate noteworthy new power, generality or scalability in comparison with previously reported validation results. Finally, papers that discuss software engineering issues only are not in the scope of this journal.- ISSN: 1474-0346

Journal of Strategy & Innovation
Journal of Strategy & Innovation invites high-quality research that advances understanding of strategy, innovation, and organizational transformation in a rapidly changing world. We welcome submissions from a broad range of contexts, including private industry, public sector organizations, research and technology ecosystems, non-profits, and mission-driven societal initiatives. The journal is particularly interested in work that examines how strategic and innovation practices shape, and are shaped by, technological, economic, environmental, and societal change.We encourage conceptual, empirical, and interdisciplinary contributions that offer strong theoretical, methodological, or practical insights. Studies may focus on firm-level strategy and innovation, industry and ecosystem dynamics, or the wider policy, societal, and economic implications of technological development.Within this remit, the journal highlights four illustrative areas of interest that reflect our strategic identity and community. These areas are not restrictive, but serve as examples of topics we particularly welcome:Strategic Management in Technology-Intensive and Innovation-Driven ContextsIncluding forward-looking strategy, anticipation practices, strategic foresight, and research that bridges the gap between the strategic management community and future-oriented innovation scholarship.Impact Assessment in Firms, Innovation Systems, and Policy ContextsResearch developing or applying multi-criteria, qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-method approaches to assess the strategic, societal, environmental, or economic impacts of innovation — particularly when connected to strategic decision-making or governance.Intellect... Property, Intangible Assets, and Strategic AdvantageWork exploring how intellectual property, data assets, knowledge capital, and other intangibles contribute to competitive dynamics, strategic positioning, value creation, and organizational renewal.Deep-Tech Entrepreneurship and Emerging Technology VenturesIncluding venture creation, financing, scaling, governance, and commercialization pathways for science- and technology-based innovations.Beyond these areas, the journal remains open to diverse topics across strategy, innovation, and organization studies, including, but not limited to: innovation policy, societal and ethical implications of technology, sustainability and digital transformation, organizational renewal, collaboration and ecosystems, and new models of innovation.The Journal of Strategy & Innovation also welcomes high-quality literature reviews that help shape and advance scholarly debate. We particularly encourage reviews that go beyond synthesis by identifying emerging themes, offering fresh conceptual or methodological perspectives, and highlighting promising directions for future research where the journal seeks to foster discourse. Literature reviews that are mainly descriptive or do not open new pathways for meaningful academic debate are unlikely to be considered.The journal publishes two issues per year.- ISSN: 1047-8310
