Short Communications

In this section, we would like to publish original short communications from authors, not exceeding 1-3 pages. The objective is to disseminate the technical idea of the originator without losing time. The IJPE Short Communications provides researchers with a venue where they can share their most current results and developments in the shortest possible time. The short communications, like regular papers in the IJPE, will be reviewed by expert reviewers and evaluated by the editor. But unlike regular papers, the communications will be published within three months of their submission. Contributions from all constituent areas of performability engineering ( refer to Scope of the Journal ) are welcomed. Please refer to Guidelines for Short Communications for the procedure of preparing and submitting the short communications.
