Selected papers will be published as a special issue of the journal

Manufacturing contributes significantly to modern civilization and creates momentum that drives today’s economy. Much research work has been devoted to improving manufactured product quality and manufacturing process efficiency for many decades. Thanks to recent advances in computer and network technologies, sensors, control systems and manufacturing machines, manufacturing research has progressed to a new level.

In addition, new research areas in manufacturing are emerging to address problems encountered in the evolving manufacturing environment, such as the increasing business practice of globalisation and outsourcing. This dedicated research journal has been established to report state-of-the-art and new developments in modern manufacturing research.

IJMR is a refereed international journal, aimed at fostering discussion and providing an authoritative source of information on modern manufacturing research. IJMR focuses on publishing innovative methodologies and disseminating solutions to problems that challenge today’s manufacturing operations.

 Go Top  Objectives

The objectives of IJMR are to establish active channels of communication between academic researchers and manufacturing practitioners, and to promote innovative research on improving manufacturing flexibility, efficiency and adaptability in decentralised dynamic environments. The international dimension is emphasised in order to solve problems associated with manufacturing outsourcing and globalisation. Knowledge sharing and technology transfer can also be accelerated through this journal. The primary focus of IJMR is on the state-of-the-art of manufacturing research, targeting today’s challenges and tomorrow’s needs.

 Go Top  Readership

IJMR provides a forum to help academic researchers, manufacturing practitioners, and university students, working in the field of manufacturing research, to disseminate information and to share knowledge for manufacturing advancement.
