E: Industrial Engineering This section covers recent advances in industrial engineering theory, techniques, methodology applications and practice, which includes, but is not limited to, operations research and decision-making models, quality engineering, production and inventory control, artificial intelligence in industrial engineering, engineering economy and cost estimation, facilities design and location, maintenance and reliability engineering, materials handling, performance analysis, discrete event system simulation, project control and management, work measurement and methods engineering, heuristics and meta-heuristics, resource optimization, applied statistics, manufacturing processes and designs, human factors and ergonomics and information systems. Transaction E is published bimonthly. Transactions F: Nanotechnology Transactions F (also known as Scientia Nanotechnology) was established in 2010. It covers research in nanoscience and nanotechnology and especially those of an interdisciplinary nature in the areas of structures, materials, and devices with nanometer-scale. Special emphasis is placed on applications in the areas of health and medicine, energy, environment, transportation, and construction.
