Series Overview
Systems and Control Transactions (SCT) is an open access book series published by PSE Press. The series consists of scientific research communications in the form of conference proceedings within the field of Process Systems Engineering. Each volume is associated with a specific scientific research conference, symposium, workshop, or other academic meeting, and is published in close collaboration with the organizers of the corresponding meeting.
Aims and Scope
SCT content falls broadly within the field of process systems engineering, especially as it relates to chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, bioengineering, and energy systems engineering. Common subjects include design, optimization, control, simulation, modelling, monitoring, operations, analysis, planning, scheduling, and management of process systems and their components. Application areas are quite diverse, including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, energy, medicine, biosystems, food, plastics, materials, natural resources, nanotechnology, agriculture, policy, education, AI and machine learning, transportation, and many more. Contributions can be computational, theoretical, or experimental in nature.
See the LAPSE Subject Index and LAPSE Controlled Keyword Index for a more detailed picture of the field.
Article Types
The articles within each volume fall into one of the following types.
Conference Paper – These are high-quality, peer-reviewed scientific research articles presenting original research findings not previously published elsewhere in peer-reviewed form.
Extended Abstract – These are research articles which present original research findings, but are usually not peer reviewed. Extended abstracts sometimes present research-in-progress, as opposed to final conclusions.
Short Abstracts – These are shorter documents (usually about 2 pages) which summarize original research findings and are not peer reviewed. More detailed results are usually provided or discussed in-person at the associated conference or scientific meeting.
