Description
The Journal of Manufacturing Systems (JMSY) publishes state-of-the-art fundamental and applied research
in manufacturing at the systems level. Manufacturing systems are comprised of products, equipment, people, information, control and support
functions for the economical and competitive development, production, delivery and total life cycle of products to satisfy market and
societal needs.
Pertinent to the journal is work studying emerging manufacturing systems from the equipment level to distributed
enterprises, and production challenges within and across various scales, including nano, micro and macro-scale manufacturing. Papers
relevant to the scope of JMSY include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
• Manufacturing Strategy and Paradigms:
flexible, reconfigurable and changeable manufacturing systems; rapid manufacturing, lean manufacturing, virtual enterprises.
•
Manufacturing Systems Design and Operations: process planning, production planning and controls, modeling, simulation, virtual manufacturing.
• Sustainable Manufacturing: life cycle of products and systems, sustainable manufacturing, design for environments and
sustainability.
• Quality Management: product and process quality, quality function deployment, quality by design, six
sigma.
• Automation, Control Systems, Human-Machine Interaction: agent-based systems, distributed and integrated control
systems, intelligent systems, emergent systems, reconfigurable control, robotics, collaborative robots and human-machine interactions.
• Product Development: product families, reverse engineering concept development, product design and integration with
manufacturing systems, product life cycle.
• Supply Chain Management and Logistics: global supply chains, dynamic supply
chains, modeling and optimization.
• Manufacturing Information Systems: Internet, Web-based systems, ERP (enterprise
resource planning), automatic data capture, enterprise modeling.
• Micro and Nano Manufacturing Systems: systems issues
related to microfluidics, nanoelectronics, nano systems, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), nanomaterials, interconnects (nano to
meso to macro); energy, chemical and biological devices.
Papers focused on novel manufacturing systems design, planning, modeling
and control from the factory level to the extended enterprise and addressing the new global challenges are invited for the Journal
of Manufacturing Systems. Papers addressing new and emerging related topics are also encouraged.
