Guest Editors: Prof. Cengiz Kahraman and Prof. Farouk Yalaoui

Aims and Scope:

The aim of the Journal of Multiple-Valued Logic and Soft Computing is to publish and disseminate knowledge in the areas related to multiple-valued logic and various disciplines that relate to soft computing, that is, to computing that is tolerant of imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth and approximative reasoning.

Specific topics include (but are not limited to):

o Logic: algebra, minimization, spectral methods
o Circuits: Design, programmable logic, verification, testing, VLSI, ULSI
o Artificial intelligence: automated reasoning, theorem proving, expert systems
o Fuzzy logic: theoretical and practical aspects, fuzzy systems, fuzzy logic
o Soft computing constituents: neural computing, evolutionary computation, heuristics
o Machine learning and data mining
o Applications of soft computing in science and engineering

3. Knowledge-Based Systems (SCI indexed, Elsevier) Click here to view Call for Paper

Guest Editors: Prof. Cengiz Kahraman

Aims and Scope:

Knowledge-Based Systems is the international, interdisciplinary and applications-oriented journal on KBS.

Knowledge-Based Systems focuses on systems that use knowledge-based techniques to support human decision-making, learning and action. Such systems are capable of cooperating with human users and so the quality of support given and the manner of its presentation are important issues. The emphasis of the journal is on the practical significance of such systems in modern computer development and usage.

4. International Journal of Nuclear Knowledge Management (Inderscience Publishers)

Guest Editors: Prof. Cengiz Kahraman

Aims and Scope:

International Journal of NUCLEAR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT - IJNKM is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the publication of research articles, review papers and technical notes in all domains related to improvement of the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and the development of nuclear sciences and technologies connected knowledge. It aims to provide a highly professional and authoritative source of information in the field of nuclear sciences, technologies and management.

International Journal of NUCLEAR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT - IJNKM is an interdisciplinary forum, which establishes channels of communication between nuclear and non-nuclear experts & managers, who act in the same fields of expertises in social sciences (finance, accounting, law, communication, human resource management, quality management, standardisation, strategy, geopolitics, etc; ) and sciences & technologies, but also about social questioning as nuclear waste management, nuclear transportation, proliferation questioning, risk management, social acceptability, regulatory and policy aspects, risk estimation, public perception, sustainable development, etc.

5. Journal of Enterprise Information Management (Emerald) Click here to view Call for Paper

Guest Editors: Prof. Cengiz Kahraman

Aims and Scope:

The journal aims to publish articles which will be of value and interest to business managers, consultants, teachers and students concerned with issues of enterprise and management. In all cases, the aim is to feature practical applications.

Journal of Enterprise Information Management (JEIM) strives to publish high quality articles of significant intellectual interest and commercial relevance to managers, consultants, lecturers and students operating within business enterprise environments. All papers submitted to JEIM are initially filtered by the Editor and then subjected to rigorous review by a team of qualified internationally acknowledged academics. JEIM now has a history of contributing to the normative literature, providing conceptual and practical insights and generating innovative ideas from recent research into organizational enterprise.

6. Int. J. of Information and Communication Technology (Inderscience Publication) Click here to view Call for Paper
Guest Editors: Prof. Cengiz Kahraman
Aims and Scope:
Information and communications technology ( ICT) is a general term that stresses the role of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications, computers, middleware as well as necessary software, storage- and audio-visual systems, which enable users to create, access, store, transmit, and manipulate information. According to the European Commission, the importance of ICTs lies less in the technology itself than in its ability to create greater access to information and communication in underserved populations. There are large economic incentives to merge the audio-visual, building management and telephone network with the computer network system using a single unified system of cabling, signal distribution and management. Engineers and scientists often need to solve complex problems with incomplete information resources, necessitating a proper treatment of uncertainty and a reliance on expert opinions. Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis prepares current and future analysts and practitioners to understand the fundamentals of knowledge and ignorance, how to model and analyze uncertainty, and how to select appropriate analytical tools for particular problems.

7. Int. J. of Computational Vision and Robotics (Inderscience Publication) Click here to view Call for Paper

Guest Editors: Prof. Cengiz Kahraman
Aims and Scope:
Computational intelligence (CI) is a set of Nature-inspired computational methodologies and approaches to address complex problems of the real world applications to which traditional methodologies and approaches are ineffective or infeasible. IEEE Computational Intelligence Society defines the CI subjects of interest as neural networks, fuzzy systems and evolutionary computation, including swarm intelligence.

In this special issue, recent developments in various computational techniques will be included to offer a systematic and effective tool for better treatment of different applications, and simulation and experimental results in Robotics.

The main source of papers for this issue will be the 10th International FLINS Conference on Uncertainty Modeling in Knowledge Engineering and Decision Making (FLINS 2012) August 27-29, 2012, Istanbul, Turkey (www.flins2012.itu.edu.tr). If this source of papers does not yield enough qualitative and quantitative papers for the issue, outsources will be considered.
