International Journal of Reliability, Quality and Safety Engineering

Aims & Scope

IJRQSE is a refereed journal focusing on both the theoretical and practical aspects of reliability, quality, and safety in engineering.

The journal is intended to cover a broad spectrum of issues in manufacturing, computing, software, aerospace, control, nuclear systems, power systems, communication systems, and electronics.

Papers are sought in the theoretical domain as well as in such practical fields as industry and laboratory research.

The journal is published six issues per year.

It is intended to bridge the gap between the theoretical experts and practitioners in the academic, scientific, government, and business communities.

Review articles and case studies are also welcome in addition to innovative works in all key areas of the journal.

Submission topics include but are not limited to the following: Reliability, quality assurance and engineering, software, algorithms, design and manufacturing, fuzzy logic, reliability growth and prediction, safety engineering, software testing and reliability, modeling and control issues, concurrent engineering, optimization of system reliability, performance analysis of systems, quality planning and measurements, risk assessment and analysis, fault-tolerant computing, and critical systems design.
