Logic has found application in virtually all aspects of Information Technology, from software engineering and hardware to programming and artificial intelligence. Indeed, logic, artificial intelligence and theoretical computing are influencing each other to the extent that a new interdisciplinary area of Logic and Computation is emerging.The Journal of Logic and Computation aims to promote the growth of logic and computing, including, among others, the following areas of interest: Logical Systems, such as classical and non-classical logic, constructive logic, categorical logic, modal logic, type theory, feasible maths.... Logical issues in logic programming, knowledge-based systems and automated reasoning; logical issues in knowledge representation, such as non-monotonic reasoning and systems of knowledge and belief; logics and semantics of programming; specification and verification of programs and systems; applications of logic in hardware and VLSI, natural language, cincurrent computation, planning, and databases. The bulk of the content is technical scientific papers, although letters, reviews, and discussions, as well as relevant conference reviews, are included.

International Immunopharmacology is the primary vehicle for the publication of original research papers pertinent to the overlapping areas of immunology, pharmacology, cytokine biology, immunotherapy, immunopathology and immunotoxicology. Review articles that encompass these subjects are also welcome.The subject material appropriate for submission includes:• Clinical studies employing immunotherapy of any type including the use of: bacterial and chemical agents; thymic hormones, interferon, lymphokines, etc., in transplantation and diseases such as cancer, immunodeficiency, chronic infection and allergic, inflammatory or autoimmune disorders.• Studies on the mechanisms of action of these agents for specific parameters of immune competence as well as the overall clinical state. • Pre-clinical animal studies and in vitro studies on mechanisms of action with immunopotentiators, immunomodulators, immunoadjuvants and other pharmacological agents active on cells participating in immune or allergic responses.• Pharmacological compounds, microbial products and toxicological agents that affect the lymphoid system, and their mechanisms of action.• Agents that activate genes or modify transcription and translation within the immune response.• Substances activated, generated, or released through immunologic or related pathways that are pharmacologically active.• Production, function and regulation of cytokines and their receptors.• Classical pharmacological studies on the effects of chemokines and bioactive factors released during immunological reactions. • Studies on the nature and function of drug and hormone receptors on lymphocytes and other cells in the immune system.• Studies of cell-derived or humoral factors that modify the immune system causing cytotoxicity, inducing antibody production and mediating inflammatory responses.• The development of immunologically based assays and their application to disease, including assays for drugs, hormones, cyclic nucleotides, tumor antigens, etc.• The Editors will be pleased to receive published books for possible independent review.Please Bookmark this URL: http://www.elsevier.com/locate/intimpThese Backfiles include Immunopharmacology and the International Journal of Immunopharmacology.

For more than twenty years, the International Information and Library Review has been welcomed by information scientists, librarians and other scholars and practitioners all over the world for its timely articles on research and development in international and comparative librarianship, information sciences, information policy and information ethics, digital values and digital libraries. Contributions to the journal have come from staff or members of many different international organizations, including the United Nations, UNESCO, IFLA, and INTAMEL, and from library and information scientists in academia, government, industry, and other organizations.The peer-reviewed journal focuses on three broad areas:Policy and ethical issues, including digital values, around the world.The ways in which information technologies and policies are used to help in decision-making, problem solving and improving the quality of people's lives. Designing and implementing information systems and services in libraries and other organizations around the world.

International Insolvency Review has a dual mission which is conveniently encapsulated in its title. Insolvency itself, as a subject of unquestioned - indeed, increasing - importance properly commands international interest as an area of study and critical comment. Practitioners and academics alike are aware of the global affinities that exist between the essential circumstances of insolvency, its functional aspects, and the impact of these elements upon the ways in which debtor-creditor relations are conducted. Solutions and innovations developed within one jurisdiction thus have immediate interest and relevance for those working elsewhere. The challenge is constantly experienced of finding appropriate ways of adapting new methods and processes into the different structures of other systems confronted by functionally similar problems. This Review exists in part to serve as a medium for the dissemination of information about recent or impending developments in insolvency law and practice which are likely to be of international interest or significance, and to serve as an archival source for the related documentation. The second connotation of our chosen title however is a direct reflection of the fact that many cases of insolvency actually contain an international - or cross-border - element, whether by virtue of the dispersal of creditors, or assets, between two or more different jurisdictions, or by virtue of the fact that the debtor's affairs and circumstances, or the legal structure of certain transactions, generate questions of a multi-jurisdictional character. In an age of increasing international activity at every level, instances of cross-border insolvency are also on the increase, and their specially complex problems are perforce coming to the attention of a steadily widening community of scholars and practitioners, and also legislators and regulators - indeed all who are in some way concerned with the phenomenon of insolvency and feel called to address its profound and abiding challenges in the most appropriate and resourceful ways currently conceivable. The cross-border aspects of insolvency therefore feature prominently in the pages of this Review. Our principal aims are therefore to provide authoritative information and comment about major issues and developments in the field of insolvency, viewed in an international perspective. The Review is a refereed journal, published thrice yearly, in which every item has been subjected to a rigorous evaluation by the Editor working in conjunction with the members of the Editorial Board. The Board consists of some twenty members, each of whom is a distinguished academic, judge or practitioner having an established international reputation in the field of insolvency, with particular emphasis on its cross-border and comparative dimensions. The contents of each Issue include scholarly articles providing an authoritative treatment of topics of current interest and concern to its international readership. Other features can include case comments, book reviews and notices, special communications and editorial intelligence regarding significant developments. English translations of important new legislation or conventions applicable to international insolvency are published in the Documentation section. Professor Ian F. Fletcher.

International Interactions is a leading interdisciplinary journal that publishes original empirical, analytic, and theoretical studies of conflict and political economy. The journal has a particular interest in research that focuses upon the broad range of relations and interactions among the actors in the global system. Relevant topics include ethnic and religious conflict, interstate and intrastate conflict, conflict resolution, conflict management, economic development, regional integration, trade relations, institutions, globalization, terrorism, and geopolitical analyses. The journal aims to promote interaction among social science disciplines by encouraging interdisciplinary work among political scientists, economists, sociologists, anthropologists, geographers, statisticians, and mathematicians.

Development in higher education is a fast growing area. The purpose of the International Journal for Academic Development is to enable educational developers in higher education across the world to exchange ideas about practice and extend the theory of educational development, with the goal of improving the quality of higher education internationally.The editors welcome original contributions on any aspect of academic development in higher and other post-school education (including staff development, educational development, instructional development and faculty development) and closely related topics.This journal will keep readers informed of best practice and current thinking worldwide.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science publications:Taylor & Francis and The International Consortium for Educational Development make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the Content ) contained in its publications.
