Scope

ISER seeks to publish regular research papers containing new theoretical foundations, case studies, research notes, literature reviews, and professional commentaries.  

• Full-length research articles(15-page limit): a discussion and presentation of well-developed research ideas; ISER is especially interested in undergraduate research efforts for full-length research articles.
• Research notes(5-page limit): powerful summaries of a promising research effort; preference will be given to researchers with novel ideas with strong promise for future publications in peer-reviewed journals.
• Professional commentaries(10-page limit) – ISER seeks experienced professionals willing to share their valuable experiences and perspective on a unique aspect of industrial and systems engineering. This is not a research article – this is a forum to share wisdom and knowledge.
• Literature reviews(30-page limit) – ISER seeks survey papers that organize and synthesize important published literature related to a compelling ISE topic.

ISER encourages submissions related to any enterprise system, whether it is manufacturing, service, healthcare, or other, in topic areas related, but not restricted to the following categories:

• Engineering Economics / Cost Estimation
• Engineering Management / Organizational Behavior
• Facility Location / Plant Layout
• General Systems Theory
• Human Factors / Ergonomics / Safety
• Optimization and Operations Research
• Process Improvement
• Production Schedule and Control
• Quality
• Reliability
• Simulation
• Supply Chain Management
• Work Measurement
