Abstracting/Indexing Services and Journal Lists

The field of human factors focuses on the human, the interaction of humans and machines, and humans and computers, whether people serve as operators, maintainers, or users in the system. The field inherently advocates systematic use of such knowledge to achieve compatibility in the design of interactive systems of people, machines, and environments to ensure their effectiveness, safety, and ease of performance. IJHFMS focuses on the development and use of computer simulations and computational algorithms to advance knowledge and understanding of the field.

 Go Top  Objectives

IJHFMS aims to promote knowledge of human factors particularly the advancement of that field using computational methods. It seeks to initiate and support international activities and cooperation in this field. The following principal goals reflect the journal's mission:

  • To advance the science of human factors
  • To advance the science of computational methods and simulation in the area of human factors
  • To enhance the contribution of the human factors discipline to the global society

 Go Top  Readership
IJHFMS is an archival record of original technical publications. The intent is to provide state of the art knowledge to professionals in human factors, ergonomics, animation, modelling and simulation of humans and human factors, academics, researchers, policy makers, and designers.

 Go Top  Contents

IJHFMS publishes peer reviewed original papers, review papers, technical reports, case studies, selected conference reports, management reports, book reviews, notes, commentaries, and news. Special Issues devoted to related human factors modelling and simulation issues are periodically arranged by the editor.

 Go Top  Subject Coverage

IJHFMS will have particular focus on the following:

  • Human factors theory as related to computational models of human performance and interaction with virtual environments
  • Simulator-based evaluations of human factors issues
  • Computer simulation of human behaviour and performance
  • Digital human modelling and simulation
  • Developments in simulation and virtual environments to address human factors and ergonomics issues
  • Human performance modelling
  • Simulation of physiological behaviour, measures, and predictions

 Go Top  Specific Notes for Authors

Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. (N.B. Conference papers may only be submitted if the paper was not originally copyrighted and if it has been completely re-written).

All papers are refereed through a double blind process. A guide for authors, sample copies and other relevant information for submitting papers are available in the Full Submission Guidelines web-page.

AUTHORS MUST SUBMIT THEIR PAPERS THROUGH THE ONLINE SUBMISSION SYSTEM, OTHERWISE THEIR PAPERS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR PUBLICATION

All papers must be submitted online. To submit a paper, please go to Online Submissions of Papers. If you experience any problems submitting your paper online, please contact submissions@inderscience.com, describing the exact problem you experience. Please include in your email the title of the Journal.
