The journal examines the theoretical foundations of conscious machines and analyzes current approaches to machine consciousness. It offers unity and visibility to a wide spread of research, which is now scattered throughout many diverse and often unrelated journals. The journal also allows a publication focus where scholars could present, compare and evaluate their work on machine consciousness both from the theoretical and technical side. Since the topic of machine consciousness is still highly controversial, each issue will endorse a blend of papers covering provocative theories as well as testable models. Machine consciousness is pursued for:

The International Journal of Mathematics publishes original papers in mathematics in general, but giving a preference to those in the areas of mathematics represented by the editorial board. The journal has been published monthly except in June and December to bring out new results without delay. Occasionally, expository papers of exceptional value may also be published. The first issue appeared in March 1990.

The International Journal of Modeling, Simulation, and Scientific Computing (IJMSSC) is a quarterly journal which provides an international forum for researchers, scholars, and engineers in the fields of system modeling, simulation and scientific computing to publish high-quality and refereed papers, and disseminate the latest theoretical results and their practical applications.

Started in 1986, IJMPA has gained international repute as a high-quality scientific journal. It consists of important review articles and original papers covering the latest research developments in Particles and Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology. The journal also features articles of long-standing value and importance which can be vital to research into new unexplored areas.

Launched in 1987, this journal covers the most important aspects as well as the latest developments in Condensed Matter, Statistical, and High Tc Superconductivity. One unique feature of this journal is its review section which contains articles with permanent research value besides the state-of-the-art research work in the relevant subject areas.To ensure top quality, review articles are by invitation only and all research papers undergo stringent refereeing. We welcome you to submit your research papers to IJMPB for publication.Complimentary copies are available upon request.

Gravitation, astrophysics and cosmology are exciting and rapidly advancing fields of research. This journal aims to accommodate and promote this expansion of information and ideas and it features research papers and reviews on theoretical, observational and experimental findings in these fields. Among the topics covered are general relativity, quantum gravity, gravitational experiments, quantum cosmology, observational cosmology, particle cosmology, large scale structure, high energy astrophysics, compact objects, cosmic particles and radiation.

This journal covers the topics on experimental, theoretical and computational nuclear science, and its applications and interface with astrophysics and particle physics. The journal includes both review articles and research papers.

This inter-disciplinary, internationally-reviewed research journal covers all aspects of nanometer scale science and technology. Articles in any contemporary topical areas are sought, from basic science of nanoscale physics and chemistry to applications in nanodevices, quantum engineering and quantum computing. IJN will include articles in the following research areas (and other related areas):

The International Journal of Neural Systems is a bimonthly peer-reviewed journal which covers information processing in natural and artificial neural systems. It publishes original contributions on all aspects of this broad subject which involves physics, biology, psychology, computer science and engineering. Contributions include research papers, reviews, short communications and Letters to the Editor.The journal presents a fresh, undogmatic attitude towards this multi-disciplinary field, aiming to be a forum for novel ideas and improved understanding of collective and cooperative phenomena in systems with computational capabilities.

This journal publishes original research papers and review articles on all areas of Number Theory, including elementary number theory, analytic number theory, algebraic number theory, arithmetic algebraic geometry, geometry of numbers, diophantine equations, diophantine approximation, transcendental number theory, probabilistic number theory, modular forms, multiplicative number theory, additive number theory, partitions, and computational number theory.

This journal publishes both applications and theory-oriented articles on new developments in the fields of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence, and is of interest to both researchers in industry and academia. From the beginning, there has always been a close relationship between the disciplines of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. The recognition and understanding of sensory data like speech or images, which are major concerns in pattern recognition, have always been considered as important subfields of artificial intelligence. On the other hand, topics like knowledge representation, inference, search or learning that belong to the center of artificial intelligence, have constantly attracted the attention of researchers working in pattern recognition. IJPRAI is the first to cover both fields in one periodical, and particular emphasis is put on papers which are in the intersection of both fields. However, it is open to articles from "pure" pattern recognition and "pure" artificial intelligence as well. * Contains current material on applications and theory research in: *Image Processing *Natural Language Processing * Computer Vision * Speech Understanding * Pattern Recognition * Robotics and Related Fields * Expert Systems * Artificial Intelligence * Knowledge Engineering * Neural Networks * Has special issues devoted to relevant and key areas in the field * Is a worthwhile investment for researchers/libraries concerned with research in industry or academia.

The International Journal of Quantum Information (IJQI) provides a forum for the interdisciplinary field of Quantum Information Science. In particular, we welcome contributions in these areas of experimental and theoretical research: * Quantum Cryptography * Quantum Computation * Quantum Communication * Fundamentals of Quantum MechanicsAuthors are welcome to submit quality research and review papers as well as short correspondences in both theoretical and experimental areas. Submitted articles will be refereed prior to acceptance for publication in the Journal.

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.
