Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Total automation of a manufacturing system means that no human is directly involved in its control. All innovations in the process of controlling a manufacturing system are welcome for submission to “Total Automation in Manufacturing Systems” but should provide important contributions on the topic. Some improved methods in the process of controlling manufacturing systems may include (as an example) improvements in the speed, precision, or robustness of such control. Submitted manuscripts will be reviewed by the editorial team based on the following three factors: demonstration of its importance as a contribution to the topic, often attributed to the use of a qualitative approach; quality of the research design and implementation; and level of transparency.
