This journal advances the knowledge and practice of community well-being as an interdisciplinary broad conception of human and societal well-being. The focus is predominately on communities of place and interest within geographic or societal spaces concerning social, economic, cultural/social, environmental or political conditions and impacts on societal and social well-being. It provides an outlet for excellent scholarship from a multitude of disciplines - including but not limited to community development, geography, urban and regional planning, economic development, public administration, regional studies, sociology, community learning and education, psychology and health – concerned with community well-being that promotes understanding of its multidimensional aspects. The journal publishes research that combines community well-being addressing issues facing our towns, cities and regions. It explores the collective aspects of communities and regions and how individual well-being is related to the context of societal well-being.

Physics in Perspective seeks to bridge the gulf between physicists and non-physicists through historical and philosophical studies that typically display the unpredictable as well as the cross-disciplinary interplay of observation, experiment, and theory that has occurred over extended periods of time in academic, governmental, and industrial settings and in allied disciplines such as astrophysics, chemical physics, and geophysics. The journal also publishes first-person accounts by physicists of significant contributions they have made, biographical articles, book reviews, and guided tours of historical sites in cities throughout the world. It strives to make all articles understandable to a broad spectrum of readers – scientists, teachers, students, and the public at large.

Environment and Planning C: Government and Policy is a fully refereed journal committed to interdisciplinary research on issues of Government and Policy with an international perspective. The journal is interested in theoretical papers and empirical assessment. It also considers case studies provided that they have a broader international relevance. It is committed to a broad range of policy questions, not just those related to government and public policy. It has had many path-breaking papers on nonstate agents, private-public collaboration, and NGOs (nongovernmental organisations). All areas of economic, social and environmental institutions, and policy are included, as reflected in the broad Editorial Board. Disciplines from which papers are derived are broad and include political science, planning, geography, economics, law, sociology, and public administration. There is a strong presence of papers from North America, Britain, and Europe, but papers from all countries are encouraged. The editors want to keep the journal at the forefront of debate about innovations in public policy backed up by theoretically based or empirical assessment. Occasionally the journal will devote all or part of an issue to a specific theme. Recent themes have covered "Restructuring in central Europe" and "Geography and public administration". The editors are pleased to respond to proposals for papers or themes, subject to the normal standards of independent refereeing.

Increasing awareness of the need to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels has led to the development of academic research and policy surrounding self-regenerating energy sources.

Cybernetics is concerned with describing complex interactions and interrelationships between systems which are omnipresent in our daily life. Machine Learning discovers fundamental functional relationships between variables and ensembles of variables in systems. The merging of the disciplines of Machine Learning and Cybernetics is aimed at the discovery of various forms of interaction between systems through diverse mechanisms of learning from data.

The International Journal of Machine Learning and Cybernetics (IJMLC) focuses on the key research problems emerging at the junction of machine learning and cybernetics and serves as a broad forum for rapid dissemination of the latest advancements in the area. The emphasis of IJMLC is on the hybrid development of machine learning and cybernetics schemes inspired by different contributing disciplines such as engineering, mathematics, cognitive sciences, and applications. New ideas, design alternatives, implementations and case studies pertaining to all the aspects of machine learning and cybernetics fall within the scope of the IJMLC.

Key research areas to be covered by the journal include:

Machine Learning for modeling interactions between systemsPattern Recognition technology to support  discovery of system-environment interactionControl of system-environment interactions Biochemical interaction in biological and biologically-inspired systemsLearning for improvement of communication schemes between systems
