Journal Guide

As the topic of Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) has an important strategic impact on global business and the world economy, there is a growing demand for research to provide insights into challenges, issues, and solutions related to the design, implementation and management of EIS. To respond the market needs from both academic researchers and practitioners for communicating and publishing their research outcomes, Taylor & Francis is launching Enterprise Information Systems. Published four times a year, the Journal focuses on both the technical and application aspects of enterprise information systems technology, and the complex and cross-disciplinary problems of enterprise integration that arise in integrating extended enterprises in a contemporary global supply chain environment. Techniques developed in mathematical science, computer science, manufacturing engineering, operations management used in the design or operation of enterprise information systems will also be considered. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Enterprise information systems' design, application, implementation, and impacts in a variety of industrial sectors including manufacturing, service, healthcare, and government Enterprise information systems and e-logistics, global e-supply chain management, supplier relationship management (SRM), customer relationship management (CRM) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Business process and workflow modelling, analysis, integration, monitoring, and management Enterprise modelling and integration, enterprise engineering Enterprise computing concepts for specific domains such as electronic and mobile commerce, vertical domains such as finance, telecommunications, automotive, aerospace, command and control, defence, healthcare, and government Inter-enterprise collaboration and virtual enterprises Enterprise architecture design and modelling, model-driven architecture (MDA), component-oriented architecture, service-oriented architecture (SOA), collaborative development and co-operative engineering Integration of (legacy) enterprise applications and information, integrated systems, e-factories, integrated manufacturing systems, industrial informatics Evolution and management of enterprise computing systems Realization technologies for enterprise computing, including ontologies and semantic web support, middleware standards and systems, such as CORBA and J2EE, modelling and description languages, such as XML, RDF, OWL, and UML Enterprise computing tools Business intelligence and knowledge management in enterprise information systems Trust, security, and privacy issues in enterprise computing Quality assurance issues in enterprise computing Enterprise modelling and simulation Systems research, systems engineering and enterprise information systems Future generation enterprise information systems Applications, case studies, and management issuesWritten specifically for and by academic researchers and practitioners of EIS, the Journal provides in-depth coverage of cutting-edge research and applications issues in the area of EIS. The Journal is committed to publishing refereed research papers and review papers that contribute to the advancement of knowledge in EIS. All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.DisclaimerTaylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.

The Entertainment and Sports Law Journal is a refereed online journal. It is located within a dynamic and rapidly expanding area of legal theory and practice. Whilst focused within legal study, the areas it encompasses are necessarily interdisciplinary. Entertainment Law, Media Law, Sports Law, IP Law, Licensing Law – these are all subjects that are taught at undergraduate and postgraduate level at increasing numbers of Law Schools in the UK and beyond.  Areas that are of interest to the Journal include the ways in which the law and regulatory frameworks operate in the following industries: music, sport, film, theatre and literature, art, gaming, the night time economy and the Internet and social media.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata publishes top quality original research papers in the fields of experimental biology and ecology of insects and other terrestrial arthropods, with both pure and applied scopes. Mini-reviews, technical notes and media reviews are also published. Although the scope of the journal covers the entire scientific field of entomology, it has established itself as the preferred medium for the communication of results in the areas of the physiological, ecological, and morphological inter-relations between phytophagous arthropods and their food plants, their parasitoids, predators, and pathogens. Examples of specific areas that are covered frequently are:host-plant selection mechanismschemical and sensory ecology and infochemicalsparasitoid-host interactionsbehavioural ecologybiosystematics(co-)evolutionmigration and dispersalpopulation modellingsampling strategiesdevelopmental and behavioural responses to photoperiod and temperaturenutritionnatural and transgenic plant resistance.

Entomological Review publishes papers dealing with all aspects of theoretical and applied entomology, and covers systematics, faunistics, zoogeography, evolution, ecology, morphology, physiology of insects, spiders and mites, as well as biological and chemical control of pests.

Entomological Science is the official English language journal of the Entomological Society of Japan. The Journal publishes original research papers and reviews from any entomological discipline or from directly allied field in ecology, behavioral biology, physiology, biochemistry, development, genetics, systematics, morphology, evolution and general entomology. Papers on techniques or applications will be considered for publication if they significantly advance in the field of entomological science in the opinion of the Editors and Editorial Board.
