About the journal
Automatica publishes papers on original theoretical and experimental research and development in the control of systems, involving all facets of automatic control theory and its applications. Preferably, theoretical papers should include applications; papers dealing with components and systems should include theoretical background and, where appropriate, economic implications.
It is intended to publish only those papers, including those based on IFAC meeting presentations, which may be regarded as new, worthwhile contributions in this field. Papers should be intelligible to the general body of control engineers, which requires that specialized techniques, terminology and acronyms be well defined and/or referenced.
Automatica has a tradition of publishing definitive papers covering a topic in depth, papers which are referred to for many years. For such papers the length requirements may be relaxed at the discretion of the Editor-in-Chief.
The scope of the journal is extensive. Topics include: the theory and design of control systems and components, encompassing robust and distributed control using geometric, optimal, stochastic and nonlinear methods, game theory and state estimation; adaptive control, including robotics, neural networks, parameter estimation and system fault detection; additional topics including artificial intelligence, fuzzy and expert systems, hierarchical and man-machine systems, all parts of systems engineering which consider the reliability of components and systems; data processing; and computers for computer-aided design, manufacturing, and control of various industrial processes, space vehicles and aircraft, ships, traffic, biomedical systems, national economies, power systems, agriculture and natural resources.
Submitted articles may be Survey Papers (extensive reviews of established or emerging research topics or application areas), Papers (detailed discussions involving new research, applications or developments), Brief Papers (brief presentations of new technical concepts and developments), Technical Communiques (new useful ideas and brief pertinent comments of a technical nature), and Correspondence (Letters to the Editor about the journal or to authors commenting on previously published papers. In the latter case, the Editor will give the authors an opportunity to respond). The journal also publishes the following features: Special Issues on the subject of increasing importance, Tutorial Papers, Book Reviews and Software Reviews.
Additional information about Automatica, including a list of recently accepted papers, a cumulative table of contents (1963-present) and recent and advance editorials, can be found at the home of the Automatica On-Line Review Management System http://www.autsubmit.com. At this location, papers may also be submitted on-line for possible publication.
Instructions to Authors
Submission of Papers
Papers and Brief Papers should be submitted to the Editor whose subject best fits the topic of the paper, Survey Papers to the Editor for Survey Papers, and Technical Communiqués or Correspondence to the Editor for Rapid Publications. See the "Editorial Board" page for the editorial areas and information on the editors. Papers must be in English.
Submission process: Paper submission to Automatica is web-based. Prospective authors should go to the website of Automatica's paper review management system Pampus at www.autsubmit.com and follow the instructions. Only PDF files that are already to be printed can be accepted. All submissions are acknowledged automatically. Submissions by ordinary mail or e-mail are not accepted. Prospective authors who do not have access to Internet, or cannot carry out the web-based submission process should contact the Editor-in-Chief.
Language services: Authors who require information about language editing and copyediting services pre- and post-submission please visit language or contact authorsupport@elsevier.com for more information. Please note Elsevier neither endorses nor takes responsibility for any products, goods or services offered by outside vendors through our services or in any advertising. For more information please refer to our Terms and Conditions terms
Papers from IFAC technical meetings: Automatica has priority access to papers presented at meetings sponsored by IFAC. Such papers normally need extensive revision before they are ready for publication. If the authors of IFAC meeting papers have not been notified by one of the Automatica Editors within three months of the meeting that the paper is to be reviewed for possible publication in Automatica, then the paper can be considered as released for publication elsewhere provided that an acknowledgement to the IFAC meeting is given.
Conditions of publication: It is a condition of publication that manuscripts submitted to Automatica have not been published and will not be submitted or published elsewhere in English or any other language, without the written consent of the publisher. Responsibility for the contents of the paper rests upon the authors and not upon IFAC, the Editors, or the Publisher.
Types of Contribution
Submitted articles may be of five basic types:
•Survey papers - Extensive reviews of established or emerging research topics or application areas.
•Papers - Detailed discussion involving new research, applications or developments. [10 printed pages, i.e. 10 000 words.]
•Brief papers - Brief presentations of new technical concepts and developments. [6 printed pages, i.e. 6000 words.]
•Technical communiqués - New useful ideas and brief pertinent comments of a technical nature. [4 printed pages, i.e. 4000 words.]
•Correspondence Items - Letters to the Editor-in-Chief about the journal or comments on previously published papers. The authors of commented-on papers will be given an opportunity to respond. Extensions to published papers should not be submitted as correspondence items. [2 printed pages, i.e. 2000 words.]
The above maximum sizes include the space needed for all the figures, tables and references.
Manuscript Preparation
General: Authors are encouraged to prepare their manuscripts as LaTeX documents. For the first submission the use of the standard LaTeX "article" style or the special Automatica style (autart.cls) available on Pampus at www.autsubmit.com is recommended. Authors must not create their own macros or define new commands.
Text: Follow this order when preparing manuscripts: Title; Authors; Affiliations; Abstract; Keywords; Main text; Acknowledgement when appropriate; Appendices; References. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote, which should include a telephone number, a fax number and an e-mail address. Full postal addresses muct be given for all co-authors.
Units: The SI system should be used.
References: All publications cited in the text should be present in a list of references following the text of the manuscript. For style of referencing, authors should consult any recent issue of Automatica. For citations with fewer than six authors, all all authors are to be listed at first citation, with "&" separating the last two authors. For more than six authors, use the first six authors followed by et al. In subsequent citations for three or more authors use author et al. in the text. The list of references should be arranged alphabetically by authors' names. As a style file, any of the standard LaTeX bibliographic style files can be used, but the instructions embedded in the sample LaTeX file on Pampus (www.autsubmit.com) should be followed.
Preparation and Submission of Final Manuscripts
For the final versions of accpeted papers the use of a special Elsevier LaTeX preprint style (elsart.cls) is requested. It is preferable that the authors use the special Automatica version of this style file, autart.cls. The submission of electronic versions of artwork (in addition to the hard copy artwork) is also encouraged.
The Elsevier preprint style elsart.cls and the special Automatica style autart.cls are available on Pampus at www.autsubmit.com, where also a sample LaTeX file is provided. The latest Elsevier preprint style, along with full instructions to authors, may also be downloaded from Elsevier's anonymous ftp server on ftp.elsevier.com in the directory pub/styles, or from the Internet (CTAN sites) on ftp.shsu.edu, ftp.dante.de and ftp.tex.ac.uk in the directory tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/elsevier.
Other word processing packages are also acceptable but LaTeX documents are strongly preferred.
Illustrations: All illustrations can cannot be sent electronically should be provided in camera-ready form, suitable for reproduction (which may include reduction) without retouching. Photographs, charts and diagrams are all to be referred to as "Figure(s)" and should be numbered consecutively in the order to which they are referred. They should accompany the manuscript, but should not be included within the text. Every figure must have a caption. Captions should be supplied separately.
Line drawings: All lettering, graph lines and points on graphs should be sufficiently large and bold to be legible when the diagram has been reduced to a size suitable for inclusion in the journal.
Photographs: Original photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced, i.e. black and white or colour. If necessary, a scale should be marked on the photograph. Photocopies of photographs or poor electronic versions are not acceptable.
Colour: Coloured figures will appear in colour in the electronic verison of a published paper, as posted on the Elsevier website. For the printed journal version, however, authors will be charges for the additional cost of printing figures in colour. 100 additional free offprints will be supplied in the case of paid colour. Full details are available from Author Services.
Tables: Tables should be numbered consecutively and given a suitable caption and each table typed on a separate sheet. Footnotes to tables should be typed below the table and should be referred to by superscript lower-case letters.
Biographies: A short biography and passport-style photograph of every author should be provided for Survey Papers, Papers and Brief Papers when requested by the Editor.
Proofs
Proofs will be sent to the author (first named author of multi-authored papers if no corresponding author is identified) and should be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Corrections should be restricted to typesetting errors; any others may be charged to the author. Any queries should be answered in full.
Offprints
Twenty-five offprints will be supplied free of charge. Offprints and copies of the issue can be ordered using the order form sent to the corresponding author after the manuscript has been accepted.
