pertaining to the use of Information Technologies in Design, Engineering,
Construction Technologies, and Maintenance and Management of Constructed
Facilities.
q Journal of the
Operational Research Society (JORS)
JORS is published 12
times a year and is the flagship journal of the Operational Research Society.
It is the aim of JORS to present papers which cover the theory, practice,
history or methodology of OR.
q ACI Journal -
Concrete International
Concrete International
is published monthly by the American Concrete Institute (www.aci-int.org). Its
circulation is concentrated among the most important professionals in the
concrete field -- the engineers, architects, contractors, manufacturers,
technicians largely responsible for the advancement of concrete technology and
practice. It is these influential groups that collaborate in preparing ACI
Codes and Standards that are the essential guidelines for all types of concrete
structures.
q ASCE: Journal of
Management in Engineering
The Journal of
Management in Engineering is published bimonthly by the American Society of
Civil Engineers (www.asce.org). It
examines contemporary issues associated with leadership and management for the
twenty-first century civil engineer. Though this journal only publishes
peer-reviewed papers and case studies, the focus is the practicing consulting
civil engineer. Areas of interest that might be published in this journal
include leadership issues such as teamwork, team building, mentoring, coaching,
and diversity. Modern management issues such as partnering, project management,
office management, professional practice and development, budgeting, financial
management, recruitment and retention of human resources, career growth management,
life-long learning, marketing and sales, ethics, technology and innovation
management, business process reengineering, motivational theory, incentives,
education, training, organization design, strategic planning, conflict
management, negotiating, risk management, globalization, networking, and change
management are of interest.

engineering education. The Journal publishes articles on a wide variety of
topics relevant to engineering education. Among the topics are the following:
educational innovations that improve student learning or performance as
typified by experiments involving courses, laboratories, experiential
activities, and support and intervention programs; expositions synthesizing
papers or reports that have influenced engineering education today, where it is
headed, or where it should be headed; developments in assessment processes and
methodologies used to evaluate the effectiveness of educational experiments or
programs; and outreach and transition activities involving elementary and
secondary education programs, pre-engineering transfer institutions,
intra-campus or inter-campus collaborations, or efforts to improve technical
literacy.
q Fatigue and Fracture
of Engineering Materials and Structures.
Fatigue &
Fracture of Engineering Materials & Structures encompasses the broad topic
of structural integrity, which is founded on the mechanics of fatigue and
fracture, and is concerned with the reliability and effectiveness of structural
components of any scale, geometry or material. The journal is interdisciplinary
and includes papers from engineers, metallurgists, materials scientists,
computer scientists, physicists, chemists, and mathematicians.
