Journal of Orthopaedics aims to be the pre-eminent orthopaedics journal and also contribute towards the improvement of the quality of health care by delivering a significant impact on the clinical practitioners through its content.

The journal publishes original research work across all disciplines of orthopedics and allied sciences. It also publishes articles on continuing education, evidence updates, students' pre-specified contributions, journal clubs, health-related information of interest to our readers and letters to the editor.

We also encourage the submission of papers from authors whose first language is not English, although it is recommended that before submitting your manuscript you ask a colleague familiar with written English to read it through. This will greatly speed up the time taken to publish your paper. It is requested to note that the journal has an international readership and all submissions should be aimed at specifying something about the setting in which the work was conducted. They must also provide any specific reasons for the research and also provide an elaborate description of the results.

An international journal, the Journal of Symbolic Computation, founded by Bruno Buchberger in 1985, is directed to mathematicians and computer scientists who have a particular interest in symbolic computation. The journal provides a forum for research in the algorithmic treatment of all types of symbolic objects: objects in formal languages (terms, formulas, programs); algebraic objects (elements in basic number domains, polynomials, residue classes, etc.); and geometrical objects.It is the explicit goal of the journal to promote the integration of symbolic computation by establishing one common avenue of communication for researchers working in the different subareas. It is also important that the algorithmic achievements of these areas should be made available to the human problem-solver in integrated software systems for symbolic computation. To help this integration, the journal publishes invited tutorial surveys as well as Applications Letters and System Descriptions.Research Areas Include:• Computational algebra• Computational geometry (non-linear)• Automated theorem proving• Automatic programming• Design and implementation of symbolic computation languages and systems• Applications in education, science, engineering and industryBenefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Design and realization of microelectronic systems using VLSI/ULSI technologies requires close collaboration among scientists and engineers in the fields of systems architecture, logic and circuit design, chips and wafer fabrication, packaging, testing, and systems applications. Generation of specifications, design, and verification must be performed at all abstraction levels, including the system, register-transfer, logic, circuit, transistor, and process levels.

To address this critical area through a common forum, the IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems was founded. The editorial board, consisting of international experts, invites original papers which emphasize the novel system integration aspects of microelectronic systems, including interactions among system design and partitioning, logic and memory design, digital and analog circuit design, layout synthesis, CAD tools, chips and wafer fabrication, testing and packaging, and system level qualification. Thus, the coverage of this Transactions focuses on VLSI/ULSI microelectronic system integration.

Topics of special interest include, but are not strictly limited to, the following: • System Specification, Design and Partitioning, • System-level Test, • Reliable VLSI/ULSI Systems, • High Performance Computing and Communication Systems, • Wafer Scale Integration and Multichip Modules (MCMs), • High-Speed Interconnects in Microelectronic Systems, • VLSI/ULSI Neural Networks and Their Applications, • Adaptive Computing Systems with FPGA components, • Mixed Analog/Digital Systems, • Cost, Performance Tradeoffs of VLSI/ULSI Systems, • Adaptive Computing Using Reconfigurable Components (FPGAs) 

Published on behalf of the International Energy Initiative, Energy for Sustainable Development is the journal for decision makers, managers, consultants, policy makers, planners and researchers in both government and non-government organizations. It publishes original research and reviews about energy in developing countries, sustainable development, energy resources, technologies, policies and interactions.Energy for Sustainable Development content is also available through HINARI, AGORA AND OARE.The board also wants to promote the publication of articles on, or that are relevant to, energy issues in developing countries and on North-South and South-South cooperation in energy technology development and application. The Board considers the publication of highly specialized work more appropriate to other professional journals. The criteria for acceptance of the papers in Energy for Sustainable Development are therefore quality of the work and its presentation and breadth of interest, irrespective of whether the paper reports research or development, theory or experiment, original work or review.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The Journal of Applied Aquaculture is a platform for the sharing of practical information needed by researchers to meet the needs of investors, farm managers, extension agents and policy makers working to adapt aquaculture theory to achieve economic and food security objectives in the real world. The journal emphasizes multi-disciplinary research and case studies that propose financially and logistically viable solutions to observable problems. To make it more accessible to farmers and non-specialists in addition to professional aquaculture researchers, authors publishing in the Journal of Applied Aquaculture are requested to avoid basic research that has only downstream or marginal applicability to actual farming systems. Technical jargon should be kept to a minimum. Tables and figures that facilitate comprehension are encouraged. An economic and feasibility analysis should accompany any proposed technological innovation. Both original research and reviews will be considered. Suitable topics include, but are by no means limited to:Practical diet formulation and food conversion efficienciesFeed manufacturing, on-farm and industrialTechniques to minimize stress, low-tech transportCase studies from development projects, small and large-scaleCost/benefit analysis of aquaculture in light of environmental conflictsTechniques for the management of genetic quality in broodstockReview of aquaculture policy, successes and failuresMarket analyses and competition in regional and international tradeQuarantine procedures and prophylaxisOn-farm trialsNew materials and construction techniquesUse of probiotics in health and water quality management Articles can be of varying length, depending upon the subject matter.
