About the journal
Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences
|
The primary focus of the journal is on stochastic modelling in the physical and engineering sciences, with particular emphasis on queueing theory, reliability theory, inventory theory, simulation, mathematical finance and probabilistic networks and graphs. Papers on analytic properties and related disciplines are also considered, as well as more general papers on applied and computational probability, if appropriate. Readers include academics working in statistics, operations research, computer science, engineering, management science and physical sciences as well as industrial practitioners engaged in telecommunications, computer science, financial engineering, operations research and management science. |

Instructions to Authors
Contributions are welcomed from all countries and must be written in English
Manuscripts
Three copies of manuscripts should be sent to: SHELDON ROSS, Editor Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences College of Engineering Dept. of Ind. Eng. & Operations Research University of California, Berkeley CA 94720, USA In addition to the three copies of the manuscript, authors are encouraged to provide their article on disk in LaTex or Tex. Please provide two disks, each with the version of the article that exactly matches the paper manuscripts. Authors should also retain one copy of their manuscript for proof checking.
Manuscripts cannot be returned.
Manuscripts are accepted for review with the understanding that the same work has not been and will not be published, nor is presently submitted elsewhere. While under editorial review, it is the responsibility of the author to keep the Editor informed about submissions, publication plans, and actual publication of related research or abstracts thereof in other outlets, including journals, review publications, journals in other disciplines, conference proceedings, and published dissertations. It is also understood that all persons listed as authors have given their approval for the submission of the paper and that any person cited as a source of personal communication has given his/her approval for such citation; written authorization may be required at the Editor’s discretion. An author is required to obtain written permission for material for which he/she does not own copyright.
Manuscript order
Manuscripts should be arranged as follows: 1. Title Page (Page 1) 2. Abstract 3. Text 4. Acknowledgements (optional) 5. Notes (optional) 6. References 7. Appendix(es) (optional) 8. Tables with titles (optional) 9. Figures with captions (optional)
Preparation of manuscrip
tThe entire manuscript, including all notes and references, must be typed, double-spaced on 8.5 x 11 inch or A4 paper leaving wide margins for copyediting. Manuscript pages should be numbered consecutively.
The title page should list (a) the title of the paper in all uppercase letters, (b) a complete mailing address (including name) where proofs can be mailed, (c) name and telephone number of the lead author, (d) a short title of 50 characters or less to be used as a running head, and (e) all authors’ names, affiliations, and e-mail addresses as they should appear for publication. Any footnotes to the authors should be listed on this page. An abstract of 100 words or less should appear here or on the following page and should be clearly differentiated from the text. (Acknowledgements, as well as recognition of Grant or other support, if any, should be listed in a separate section preceding the Notes, if any, or Reference section.)
Equations
All equations must be typewritten and numbered. Equation numbers should appear in parentheses in the right-hand margin. Text references to equations take the following form: “For a further discussion of this material, see Eq. (3.2)”. All superscripts and subscripts in equations must be clearly typed above and below the line, respectively. End of proof signposts should appear as such: n.
Tables and figures
Tables and figures should be numbered consecutively and appear as one unit after the Reference section.
All tables must have titles and all figures must have captions. All tables and figures must have at least one text reference that takes the following form: “For a different view of this matter see Table 1 and Figure 3.” Tables may have footnotes that follow directly after the body of the table. Table source notes should follow table footnotes.
Figures must be submitted “ready for reproduction.” Authors are encouraged to submit figures in electronic form, preferably TIFF (line drawings at least 600 dpi, grey scale at least 300 dpi) or EPS (with fonts embedded) format. If not submitted electronically, figures may be output on a laser printer. Figures should remain legible at a 50% reduction, and letters within a word should not touch one another. Labels on the figures should correspond to text notation as to italic or roman type-face, and superscripts and subscripts should be in superior and inferior positions.
Notes
When more than a simple reference citation is needed, notes may be used. In general, however, they should be avoided.
References and citations
References should be cited in the text using the author’s last name and the reference number in brackets.
For three authors, give all names at the first citation; subsequently use first author and “et al.” Complete bibliographic information should be listed in the Reference section where references should be listed alphabetically. The first reference that appears in the alphabetical list should be numbered “1” and subsequent references should be numbered accordingly. Below are examples of both text citations and a sample reference list.
Smith and Wollensky [4] have ascertained that the stress factor on metal parts varies with the amount of heavy metal ions included in such metal composition. According to Bishop et al. [1], this variance takes on an exponential factor not unlike that shown in the Mathew’s Variable Rate Differential (see Mathew [3, p.110]). Wing stress tests conducted by the Max Einschuss Laboratory [2] have verified such findings.

Copyediting and proofreading
The publisher reserves the right to copyedit all articles accepted for publication. Authors will be asked to review proofs of their articles to correct any typographical or technical errors.
Offprints
The lead author will receive 25 free offprints of the published article. An order form will be enclosed with page proofs to facilitate the ordering of additional offprints. After the article is in print, only reprints, in quantities of 50 copies or more, may be ordered by contacting: Journals Production Department Cambridge University Press 40 West 20th Street New York NY 10011 USA
Copyright Assignmen
tAuthors will be required to transfer their copyright, on certain conditions, to Cambridge University Press.
