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
Peer-Reviewed Conference Papers – These are high-quality, peer-reviewed scientific research articles presenting original research findings not previously published elsewhere in peer-reviewed form. Today, all works published in Systems and Control Transactions are peer-reviewed conference papers.
SCT does not accept general submissions. All submissions are handled through the conference associated with each volume.
Older volumes of SCT (vol’s 1-3) sometimes contained extended abstracts which were not peer-reviewed. Check the markings on each article to see the article type.
