The Materials and Manufacturing Collection (www.inderscience.com/materials) is a major source in the field. Materials are linked with product technology, structural integrity, innovation, microstructure and properties, machining and machinability, nano and biomaterials, and computational materials science and surface science and engineering. Internet manufacturing and services is included in the manufacturing journals, along with manufacturing technology and management, research, mechatronics, nanomanufacturing, remanufacturing, and rapid and sustainable manufacturing. Specialised topics involve abrasive technology, precision technology, supply management and logistics, RFID, and computational vision and robotics.

Our pick-and-mix strategy enables you to choose any, some or all of the titles, the last two options at discount rates.

Professor Fengzhou Fang, Director of the Centre of MicroNano Manufacturing Technology in the College of Precision Instruments & Opto-Electronics Engineering at Tianjin University in China, has agreed to take over the editorship of the International Journal of Nanomanufacturing. He will be assisted in this task by Professor Jack Luo of the Centre for Materials Research and Innovation at the University of Bolton in the UK. The Journal, now in its fifth volume, has made a successful start under previous Editors, Dr. Mark Jackson and Professor Waqar Ahmed, who have now moved on to pursue other interests.

Professor Anca Ralescu from the University of Cincinnati Department of Computer Science has agreed to join the Editorial Team of the International Journal of Advanced Intelligence Paradigms as a Co-Editor-in-Chief. The journal is publishing its second volume in 2010 and Professor Ralescu will help maintain and build on its successful start.

Professor D.Y. Li of the Departments of Chemical and Materials Engineering, and Bio-medical Engineering at the University of Alberta in Edmonton will take over editorship of the International Journal of Nano and Biomaterials. Professor Li's research interests include nano- and bio-tribology, photocatalytic materials, surface science/engineering, computational materials science, and bio-medical interfacial interaction. IJNBM will be into its third year of publishing next year.

Professor Jonathan Liu, International Visiting Professor in Global Business Management at the Regent's Business School of Regent's College, London, has agreed to take over the running, as Executive Editor, of the well-established International Journal of Business Performance Management, which will be publishing its 12th volume next year.
