The Food Additives and Contaminants - Surveillance Database is a searchable database containing all the surveillance data published in Food Additives and Contaminants Part B (FAC B) since its launch in June 2008. Search results may be viewed on screen. or downloaded into standard reports or spreadsheets by simply clicking a button. You may search the entire database by following the linkVisit FAC B Database. or alternatively you may choose to move from a FAC B article through to the specific dataset that corresponds to the article you are viewing. There are links to the relevant datasets from all FAC B articles. All subscribers to the FAC B journal will be granted access to the entire database. Pay-per-view customers will be granted access to the datasets corresponding to the articles that they have purchased. but they will not be able to search the full database.

Cyber-Physical Systems is an international interdisciplinary journal dedicated to publishing the highest quality research in the rapidly-growing field of cyber-physical systems / Internet-of-Things.

Publications will cover theory, algorithms, simulations, architectures, implementations, services and applications of state-of-the-art research in this exciting field.

The journal welcomes submissions in the following key areas of interest:

A. Networks and Networked Systems where intelligent entities exchange information to achieve improved overall performance for both cyber and physical components. Particular areas of interests include:
• sensor, vehicular, robot, camera, aerial and social smartphone networks
• wireless networking technologies and autonomous ad hoc networks
• internet of things and machine-to-machine communications
• networked infrastructure management with applications such as smart power grids and transportation systems
• network enabled computation, coordination, and actuation
• scalability of complex networks

B. Modelling and Control where mathematical and computational methods are developed and applied to facilitate innovative design, in-depth analysis, and novel insights of the fundamental principles.
Particular areas of interests include:
• control theory with a clear cyber-physical tone such as networked control, distributed optimization, and distributed learning
• autonomy with applications in mobile sensor networks, internet connected cars, etc.
• modelling of tightly integrated physical processes, software, computation platforms, and networks

C. Data Management where novel methods are developed to reliably gather, store, transfer, and analyse large amount of data and dataflow.
Particular areas of interests include:
• data management and processing (e.g. big data, cloud computing)
• location and tracking based services
• smart cameras and computer vision based context management
• web of things.

D. Software and Hardware where novel designs and implementations of test-beds, platforms, and software will significantly improve the speed, efficiency, and reliability of next generation CPS.  Particular areas of interests include:
• embedded systems applications (pervasive computing, real-time control technologies)
• resource-constrained systems (low power, energizing, device miniaturization)
• standards and middleware.

E. Other Emerging Areas where new challenges, new ideas, and new principles are shaping. For example,
• incentive, security, trust, and privacy issues in CPS
• smart living technologies such as smart city, smart home and office, wearable devices, learning devices, etc.
• social M2M networks, social impact of CPS, creative aspects.

Cyber-Physical Systems encourages original articles in these areas, including technical contributions, short communications, and novel surveys. The journal will make special effort to encourage submissions from authors working in industry. Proposals for special issues in cutting-edge and newly-developing areas of cyber physical systems are encouraged, and should be discussed with the Editor-in-Chief.

Cybernetics and Systems serves as an international forum for the publication of the latest developments in cybernetics. The journal exposes scientists from diverse disciplines to important new methods in cybernetics, while drawing attention to novel applications of these methods to problems from many areas of research. Strictly refereed contributions present original research based on empirical verification, spanning a broad range of interests, from artificial intelligence to economics. Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Cybernetics and System Analysis publishes articles on: software and hardware: algorithm theory and languages: programming and programming theory: optimization: operations research: digital and analog methods: hybrid systems: machine-machine and man-machine interfacing. Simulation, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, finite automata, switching theory, and computer logic are also covered. The journal focuses on fresh formulations of problems and new methods of investigation. Cybernetics and System Analysis is a translation of the Ukrainian journal Kibernetika i Sistemnyi Analiz. The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.All articles are peer reviewed.

Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking is the essential, peer-reviewed journal for understanding the social and psychological impact of today’s social networking practices. Highly regarded as the go-to source in the field, the Journal has followed the trend of social networking and virtual reality for the past 15 years. It is known for its rapid communication articles and in-depth studies surrounding the effects of interactive technologies on behavior and society, both positive and negative. Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking coverage includes: Social networking on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and more Virtual communities and blogging behavior Mobile device behavior Computer games and gaming e-Commerce and online shopping e-Health communication Internet addiction Cyberbullying Epidemiological studies of Internet use and behavior Addiction to cyberporn Virtual reality therapy Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking is under the editorial leadership of Editor-in-Chief Brenda K.
