International Journal of Automation and Safety (IJAS)

OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE OF JOURNAL: The International Journal of Automation and Safety (IJAS) provides comprehensive reviews of important theoretical and applied developments that impact the engineering of autonomous, semi-autonomous systems and safety. The main areas of automation and control system, computer science and risk assessment, safety and risk assessment, process safety and environmental engineering, control, industrial safety and risk assessment, Safety, public health and medical services, robotic safety risk assessment, process engineering and environmental protection, are the main areas covered, as well as links with computer science, reliability and safety, optimization. The journal covers important intersections with fields outside of engineering, including Energy industries, environmental and ecological systems, biology, neuroscience, and human behavioral science.
