IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine Vol.23 No.11 Nov 2008

Aims and Scope

The IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine publishes articles and tutorials concerned with the various aspects of systems for space, air, ocean, or ground environments as well as news and information of interest to IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society members and practitioners in the fields of interest of the Society. Many of our readers are concerned with the practice of systems engineering. The boundaries of acceptable subject matter has been intentionally left flexible so that the Magazine can follow the research activities, technology applications and future trends to better meet the needs of the members of the Society. Our goal is to inform the readers of technologies, state of the art, design trades, historical achievements, etc. so that they will gain insights into a field heretofore unknown to them, technology applications, and ! on current or historical achievements. We want to introduce technical specialties to readers in the hope that something in the articles will give them some insight for their own fields of endeavor. In doing so we span professional interests in the organization, design, development, integration and operation of systems, including complex systems and systems-of-systems.

For more technically complex papers authors should consider submitting to the IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems.

We welcome letters; we reserve the right to edit for space, style, and clarity. Include address and daytime phone number.
