IJC encourages original submissions in these and other related control areas. However, please note that this journal does not consider submissions on military applications.

The journal will consider regular papers, survey papers and technical notes. Responses to articles and correspondence will also be considered at the Editor-in-Chief’s discretion.

Proposals for Special issues in cutting-edge areas of control science and engineering are strongly encouraged, and should be discussed in the first instance with the Editor-in-Chief.

All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to rigorous and rapid peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double-anonymous.

Queries regarding submissions can be made by contacting the Editor-in-Chief, whose decision is final.

All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.
