About the journal
|
Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are now being used by the practising engineer to solve a whole range of hitherto intractable problems. This journal provides an international forum for rapid publication of work describing the practical application of AI methods in all branches of engineering.
Focal points of the journal are:
*Applications of real-time intelligent automation, and their associated supporting methodologies and techniques.
*Architectures, algorithms and techniques for distributed AI systems.
*Decision-support systems.
*Aspects of reasoning: abductive, case-based, model-based, non-monotonic, incomplete, progressive and approximate reasoning.
*Other theoretical aspects, e.g. chaos theory and fractals.
*Knowledge processing, e.g. a priori and self-learning, knowledge elicitation and acquisition, knowledge representation, knowledge compaction, knowledge bases, expert systems, neural networks, fuzzy systems and genetic algorithms.
*Perception, e.g. image and signal processing, pattern recognition, vision systems, tactile systems, and speech recognition and synthesis.
*Aspects of software engineering, e.g. intelligent programming environments, the testing verification and validation of AI-based software, software and hardware architectures for the real-time use of AI techniques, safety and reliability.
*Fault detection, fault analysis and diagnostics.
*Industrial experiences in the application of the above techniques, e.g. case studies or bench-marking exercises.
Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence publishes
*Survey papers/tutorials.
*Contributed papers-detailed expositions of new research or applications.
*Brief papers-short discussions of new technical concepts or developments, or new applications of existing techniques.
*Case studies or software reviews-evaluative and descriptive reviews of existing available AI software systems, discussing the experience gained and lessons learnt from using or developing AI systems for engineering applications.
*IFAC EAAI Forum-problems arising from engineering practice, needing to be solved by somebody; solutions to problems discussed in this forum or elsewhere; critiques of a position or claim found in the literature.
*Book reviews-analyses of recent texts in the fields listed above.

Types of Contribution
Survey papers/tutorials; Contributed papers - detailed expositions of new research or applications; Brief papers - short discussions of new technical concepts or developments, or new applications of existing techniques; Education and training - discussions of techniques for teaching the technology, or descriptions of experience using AI methods; Case studies or software reviews - evaluative and descriptive reviews of existing available AI software systems, discussing the experience gained and the lessons learnt using/developing AI systems for engineering applications; IFAC EAAI forum - problems arising from engineering practice, needing to be solved by somebody, solutions to problems discussed in this forum or elsewhere, critiques of a position or claim made in the literature.
Manuscript Preparation
General: Manuscripts must be typewritten, double-spaced with wide margins on one side of white paper. Good quality printouts with a font size of 12 or 10 pt are required. The corresponding author should be identified (include a fax number and e-mail address). Full postal addresses must be given for all co-authors. Authors should consult a recent issue of the journal for style if possible. An electronic copy of the paper should accompany the final version. The Editors reserve the right to adjust style to certain standards of uniformity. Authors should retain a copy of their manuscript since the Editors and publisher cannot accept responsibility for damage or loss of papers. Original manuscripts are discarded one month after publication unless the publisher is asked to return original material after use.
Abstracts: The abstract must precede the main text and be of no more than 200 words. A list of 5-10 relatively independent keywords (index terms), characterising the paper, should follow the abstract.
Text: Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text, Acknowledgements, Appendix, References, Vitae, Figure Captions and then Tables. Do not import the Figures or Tables into your text. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote. All other footnotes (except for table footnotes) should be identified with superscript Arabic numbers. The title should be brief. The authors' names should be typed on the line below the title and the affiliation and address (including fax number and e-mail address) should follow on the next line. Use of the first person (I/we) should be avoided. It is recommended that a technical biography (100 words) of each author be supplied with the manuscript (to be published with the paper).
Units: Authors must use SI units. Any alternative versions of units may be added in parenthesis following the appropriate SI value.
Mathematics and Symbols:
Mathematical symbols and formulae should be clearly identified. All non-standard abbreviations or symbols should be identified when first mentioned and a distinction should be made between the letter O and zero: between the letter l and the number one and between K and Kappa.
References: All publications cited in the text should be present in a list of references following the text of the manuscript. In the text refer to the author's name (without initials) and year of publication, e.g. "Since Peterson (1993) has shown that..." or "This is in agreement with results obtained later (Kramer, 1994)". For three or more authors use the first author followed by "et al.", in the text. The list of references should be arranged alphabetically by authors' names. The manuscript should be carefully checked to ensure that the spelling of authors' names and dates are exactly the same in the text as in the reference list.
References should be given in the following form:
Ayache, N., Faugeras, O.D., 1987. Maintaining representations of the environment of a mobile robot. In: Bolles, R., Roth, B. (Eds.), Robotics Research: The Fourth International Symposium. MIT Press, Cambridge.
Bierman, G.J., 1977. Factorization Methods for Discrete Sequential Estimation. Academic Press, New York.
Zhang, Z., Faugeras, O., 1992. Three-dimensional motion computation and object segmentation in a long sequence of stereo frames. International Journal of Computer Vision 7 (3), 211-241.
Illustrations: All illustrations 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. All illustrations should be clearly marked on the back with the figure number and the author's name. All figures are to have a caption. Captions should be supplied on a separate sheet.
Line drawings: Good quality printouts on white paper produced in black ink are required. All lettering, graph lines and points on graphs should be sufficiently large and bold to permit reproduction when the diagram has been reduced to a size suitable for inclusion in the journal. Dye-line prints or photocopies are not suitable for reproduction. Do not use any type of shading on computer-generated illustrations.
Photographs: Photographs are to be kept to a minimum. Original photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced, e.g. black and white or colour. If necessary, a scale should be marked on the photograph. Please note that photocopies of photographs are not acceptable.
Colour: Colour illustrations are printed only if the colour is necessary to an understanding of the paper. Authors will be charged for colour at current printing costs.
Tables: Tables should be numbered consecutively and given suitable captions. Each table must be typed on a separate sheet. Footnotes to tables should be typed below the table and should be referred to by superscript lowercase letters. No vertical rules should be used. Tables should not duplicate results presented elsewhere in the manuscript, e.g. in graphs.
Electronic Submission
Authors should submit an electronic copy of their paper on a disk with the final version of the manuscript. The electronic copy should match the hard copy exactly. Always keep a back-up copy of the electronic file for reference and safety. Full details of electronic submission and formats can be obtained from http://authors.elsevier.com or from Author Services at Elsevier Science.
Proofs
Proofs will be sent to the first named author if no corresponding author is identified of multi-author papers 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. Please note that authors are urged to check their proofs carefully before return, since the inclusion of late corrections cannot be guaranteed. Proofs are to be returned to the Log-in Department, Elsevier Science, The Boulevard, Langford Lane, Kidlington, Oxford OX5 1GB, UK.
