Manufacturing Letters, an official journal of the The Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME), in cooperation with the North American Manufacturing Research Institution of the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (NAMRI/SME), is an online, rapid-publication journal providing a home for short, high-quality papers from the international academic and industry community on important advances from all interdisciplinary research areas impacting manufacturing.The journal promotes an exchange of ideas and communicates significant developments of immediate interest to others engaged in formative research that contributes to progress in manufacturing techniques, models, processes, and systems.Original concise papers are encouraged describing new kinds of manufacturing based on new processes or materials, new concepts in manufacturing systems or enterprises, or novel ways to look at old problems and solutions in manufacturing that show promise. Papers merit acceptance, for example, by detailing the key elements of an emerging field of research, describing the potential of an experimental or theoretical improvement, or demonstrating a new contribution to practice or policy. Papers should not merely confirm or extend previous work.To meet a vital need to rapidly disseminate current scientific findings, Manufacturing Letters uses a streamlined review process. Papers are peer reviewed and (1) accepted as written or (2) rejected within four (4) weeks of submission. Rejected papers can be revised but must be resubmitted as new manuscripts.Papers are limited to 1500 words, not including the abstract, references, and a maximum of four (4) figures or tables. Papers must be original contributions, not simultaneously submitted elsewhere, previously published or scheduled to be published. The language of the journal is English.Emerging research communicated in Manufacturing Letters is presumed to be ongoing; therefore, authors are encouraged to submit a full-length journal paper to an appropriate publication outlet, such as the Journal of Manufacturing Systems or Journal of Manufacturing Processes.

Reviewers of JAD consist of members practicing in different professions from all over the globe. The journal is proud to have such an international and diverse editorial board that will assist and facilitate the publications of articles which reflect a global view on acute disease, as well as emphasizing our focus on supporting the needs of medical practitioners.

As an international journal, JAD is distributed worldwide and welcomes submissions from international contributors and researchers of all specialties. The journal provides a platform for reporting of acute diseases in different settings, which enhances our understanding of course, diagnosis, treatment and clinico-pathologic features of disease. Specialist physicians and general practitioners will find it an indispensable source of reading and reference, and undergraduates will learn a lot from each issue. JAD will allow us to seek opportunities to work with others who share our aim, and to enhance our work through partnership, and to uphold the standards of our profession and contribute to its advancement. We believe that in this way we can contribute to the development of treatment methods of acute diseases and emergency medicine.

The Journal of Consumer Health on the Internet is the only professional peer-reviewed journal devoted to locating consumer health information via the Internet. In this journal librarians and health information providers describe programs and services aimed at helping patients and the general public find the health information they need. From the Editor: "Studies have shown that health information is one of the major reasons that people worldwide access the Internet. As the amount of health information on the Web increases exponentially, it becomes critical that librarians-including public and medical librarians-be knowledgeable about what is available online and be able to direct users to reliable, accurate, quality information."

Topics addressed by the journal include: evaluation and selection of Web-based consumer health resources descriptions of consumer health information programs relying on Web-based resources training consumers to find health information on the Web criteria for evaluating quality consumer health sites alternative and complementary health sites The Journal of Consumer Health on the Internet is an essential resource for libraries, persons, and institutions whose responsibilities include making health information available to the general public.Peer Review Policy: All manuscripts submitted are peer reviewed using a rigorous, double-blind process; reviewers are assigned based on subject expertise.
