Instructions to Authors
This journal uses ScholarOne Manuscripts (previously Manuscript Central) to peer review manuscript submissions. Please read the guide for ScholarOne authors before making a submission. Complete guidelines for preparing and submitting your manuscript to this journal are provided below.
Please note that Quality Engineering ® uses CrossCheck™ software to screen papers for unoriginal material. By submitting your paper to Quality Engineering ® you are agreeing to any necessary originality checks your paper may have to undergo during the peer review and production processes.
Manuscript Submission
Quality Engineering ® receives all manuscript submissions electronically via their ScholarOne Manuscripts website located at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/lqen. ScholarOne Manuscripts allows for rapid and easy submission of original and revised manuscripts, as well as reviewing and internal communication between authors, editors and reviewers via a web-based platform. For ScholarOne Manuscripts technical support, you may contact them by e-mail or phone support via http://scholarone.com/services/support/. All other questions should be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief at peter.a.parker@nasa.gov.

Guidelines:
We recommend submitting one or more PDF documents which contain all text, tables and figures during initial review. We encourage authors to review articles in Quality Engineering for examples of scope, level, and overall style of the journal.
Manuscript Preparation authors are responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyrighted material from other sources and must sign an agreement for transfer of copyright to the publisher upon acceptance. To download the form, go to: http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/pdf/copyright form.pdf. All accepted manuscripts, artwork, and photographs become property of the publisher. A cover letter should indicate clearly that the work being submitted for publication constitutes original research and that it has not been published and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
Note that uploading of higher resolution images may take significantly longer; therefore authors are strongly encouraged to submit lower resolution images during the review process to streamline uploading.
Note that ScholarOne Manuscripts will automatically assign pages a running head and footer, as well as page numbers and line numbers to your manuscript. Best online viewing results for authors and reviewers will be obtained with original files that DO NOT contain page numbers, line numbers, or any information in the manuscript header or footer. Upon re-submission and acceptance, authors will be able to submit publication quality high resolution images as needed. Revised manuscripts should be submitted via ScholarOne Manuscripts' Author Center to ensure that they are linked to the original submission.
Color Reproduction. Color art will be reproduced in color in the online publication at no additional cost to the author. Color illustrations will also be considered for print publication; however, the author will be required to bear the full cost involved in color art reproduction. Please note that color reprints can only be ordered if print reproduction costs are paid.
Print Rates: $900 for the first page; $450 per page for the next three pages of color. A custom quote will be provided for articles with more than four pages of color. Art not supplied at a minimum of 300 dpi will not be considered for print.
