JOURNAL
OF
INTELLIGENT
MOBILITY
Published by PCR as a non-profit publication
JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT MOBILITY is a source of multidisciplinary information in
intelligent mobility, including:
·
definition of mobility systems, including identification of user
requirements and technological specifications;
·
development of mobility systems, including conceptual
architectures, design concepts, development, integration, and deployment of
systems.
The Journal publishes papers
covering all aspects of intelligent mobility, including mobile robots, design, software,
hardware-software-systems issues, powered wheelchairs and vehicles (tracked,
wheeled, crawling and walking) to record original research in the British
Library in all fields of mobile and automotive technology, science and
engineering.
JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT
MOBILITY
publishes research papers and reports of practical experience. All articles should consider the practical
application of the idea advanced through case studies, experiments, or
systematic comparisons with other approaches already in practice. The journal is intended to stimulate
awareness, appreciation and utilization of mobile platforms. Themes include: fundamentals of automation,
robotics, distributed systems, navigation, sensors, mechatronics,
biomechatronics, mobile computing, complexity,
integration, inter-operability, dynamics, communication, effectiveness, ethics,
automation, communication, transportation, control, vehicular electronics,
electro-mechanical engineering, design methods, IT, recycling and safety.
JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT
MOBILITY examines
the wider implications of intelligent mobility. This means that papers can consider aspects
such as organisational relevance, business value,
cognitive implications, social implications and impact on individuals or
communities. Interest extends from the
basic science to technology applications with analytical, experimental and
numerical studies.
JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT
MOBILITY is open
to case studies, experiments and purely theoretical papers. Research that uses quantitative methods (for
example statistical surveys) will be suitable if it concerns intelligent
mobility.
Only
original manuscripts, published nowhere else before, can be accepted for
publication.
JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT
MOBILITY stands at
the cross-roads of computing, physics, mechanics, engineering, design and materials
sciences. The emphasis is placed on
contributions that appear to be of permanent interest to research workers and
engineers in the field. Papers that are
merely illustrations of established principles and procedures, even though
possibly containing new numerical or experimental data, will generally not be
published.
JOURNAL OF INTELLIGENT
MOBILITY also
publishes articles and features designed to be of a practical nature, as well
as a substantial section reserved for research articles. Research articles are selected to reflect the
most interesting and strategically important research and development
activities from around the world that need to be permanently stored in the
British Library, ensuring that research articles remain accessible to readers. All articles undergo double-blind peer review.
