Journal Guide

Design for Augmented Humanity (DAH) is an international journal enabling reporting and archiving of advances in knowledge for the meaningful integration and development of technology to enhance and extend human capabilities and well-being. The scope of the journal encompasses physical, mental and holistic considerations. DAH welcomes articles which report on and discuss related research issues including but not restricted to interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research on human augmentation and enhancements for individuals and social groupings including cognitive and socio-psychological aspects; design theory and methodology for human augmentations; advanced applications, insights and case studies on augmented humanity.

DAH serves as a platform for researchers, designers, and technologists to share innovative work, discuss emerging trends, and explore the social, ethical, and psychological implications of human enhancement technologies. The journal is committed to fostering dialogue and collaboration between disciplines to inspire novel approaches that promote the responsible and meaningful development of technologies that augment human life in both individual and collective contexts.

The scope of DAH includes interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research that addresses a wide range of topics, such as cognitive and socio-psychological aspects of human enhancement, advanced design methodologies for human augmentation, and cutting-edge applications in augmented humanity. Contributions are invited from diverse fields, with a focus on practical insights, case studies, and theoretical advancements that contribute to the evolving landscape of human-centered design and technology.

Designed Monomers and Polymers (DMP) provides a forum for the prompt publication of peer-reviewed, English-language papers on all areas of macromolecular design and application. Emphasis will be placed on the macromolecular preparations including the synthesis, characterization and application of monomers. The experimental part should be provided in such detail (including specific observations, precautionary notes, use of new materials, techniques, and their possible problems, etc.) that it could be reproduced by any researcher wishing to repeat the work. The subjects of macromolecular science, initiators, macroinitiators for macromolecular design, as well as the kinetics, mechanism and modeling aspects of polymerization, will be included too.

Designed Monomers and Polymers provides an interface between organic, and polymer chemistries and aims to bridge the gap between monomer synthesis and the design of new polymers. The subject of monomers may include old monomers but new methods of synthesis. Authors must show the evidence for polymerization (including polycondensation, sequential combination, oxidative coupling, radiation, plasma polymerization, etc.) for new monomers. The field of monomers encompasses functional prepolymers of various architectures such as hyperbranched polymers, telechelic polymers, macromonomers, or dendrimers.

There is a great deal of activity in design theory, coding theory and cryptography and recently there has been considerable research done which brings together more than one of the subjects. Designs, Codes and Cryptography provides a forum for high quality papers of both a theoretical and a practical nature which bridge more than one of these areas, encouraging interaction between them. It emphasizes the algebraic and geometric aspects of design theory, coding theory and cryptography. The journal is widely read by engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists and others in education, industry and government.

Founded in 1857 as Berliner Entomologische Zeitschrift, the journal Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift is an international journal of systematic entomology. It publishes original research papers in English on the systematics, taxonomy, phylogeny, comparative morphology, and biogeography of insects. Other arthropods are also considered where of relevance to the biology of insects. The geographical scope of the journal is worldwide. Priority is given to revisional work and comprehensive studies of phylogenetic, biological or zoogeographical relevance. We also invite review articles pertaining to the systematics and biology of insects. Impact Factor 0.400* * Thomson Reuters Citation Report 2009 Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift is dedicated to provide a high-quality forum to contribute to the documentation of insect species, their distribution, their properties, and their phylogenetic relationships. All submitted manuscripts are subject to peer-review by the leading specialists for the respective topic. Distinguished authorities form the international advisory board which guarantees the high scientific profile of the journal. This reflected by an outstanding print quality which is adept in conveying the valuable information contained in the often detailed line drawings and photographs of scientific illustrations. Authors are provided - without any page charge - 25 reprints and a high-resolution pdf of their article. For detailed information readers and authors are asked to refer to the following URL for the journal at Wiley Interscience and the Museum fur Naturkunde, respectively:.
