• control of manufacturing systems
• control in power electronics
• control of process systems
• control theory
• cyber-physical-systems and control
• data processing
• delay systems
• design of control systems
• discrete event systems
• distributed parameter systems
• economic and financial Systems
• estimation and filtering
• hybrid systems
• human interaction
• identification and observation
• information-based control
• intelligent systems
• iterative learning control
• model-predictive control
• multi-agent systems
• networked control
• optimal control
• power & water management
• quantum control
• repetitive Control
• robust control
• robotics & UAV
• traffic & automobile control
• social systems
• system-wide coordination control
• shipping & marine vessels control

IJC encourages original submissions in these and other related control areas. The journal will consider regular papers, survey papers with no page limit 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 blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
 
Queries regarding submissions can be made by contacting the Editor-in-Chief, whose decision is final.
