Scope

• Architectures for industrial cyber-physical systems form the first area, covering reference architectures, system composition and the integration of heterogeneous industrial assets工业信息物理系统的体系结构是第一个领域，涵盖参考模型、系统构成以及异构工业资产的集成。
• Enabling technologies are treated separately from architecture, including sensing, industrial networking, edge and cloud computing and real-time computation embedded in physical plant使能技术与体系结构分开处理，包括感知、工业网络、边缘与云计算以及嵌入物理装备的实时计算。
• Methods and tools for engineering and managing systems of industrial cyber-physical systems are in scope, from model-based design and verification to lifecycle and configuration management面向工业信息物理系统之系统的工程与管理方法与工具属收稿范围，从基于模型的设计与验证到生命周期与配置管理。
• Artificial intelligence applied to industrial cyber-physical systems is a distinct heading, covering learning-based control, industrial artificial intelligence and predictive maintenance应用于工业信息物理系统的人工智能是独立方向，涵盖基于学习的控制、工业人工智能与预测性维护。
• Trustworthiness and reliability are addressed as first-class problems, including safety, security, resilience and the certification of autonomous industrial systems可信与可靠被当作首要问题处理，包括安全性、信息安全、韧性与自主工业系统的认证。
• Applications of industrial cyber-physical systems are published where the industrial problem drives the contribution, such as smart manufacturing, energy systems, robotics and process automation工业信息物理系统的应用类论文须由工业问题驱动贡献，例如智能制造、能源系统、机器人与过程自动化。
• Education and training for industrial cyber-physical systems, including curricula and workforce development, complete the scope and reflect the society's interest in the talent pipeline工业信息物理系统的教育与培训（含课程设置与人才队伍建设）构成收尾领域，反映学会对人才供给的关注。

History

• The journal was created by the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society and its first issue was published in February 2023, making it the society's newest transactions title该刊由（IEEE）工业电子学会创办，创刊号于 2023 年 2 月出版，是学会最新的汇刊类期刊。
• Okyay Kaynak was the founding editor-in-chief, recruited before launch to build the editorial board and the review pipeline, and he led the journal from 2023 to 2026（Okyay Kaynak）为创刊主编，在刊物启动前即受聘组建编委会与审稿流程，任期为 2023 至 2026 年。
• In June 2026 the journal received its first Journal Citation Report impact factor of 7.4 and was placed in the first quartile of both multidisciplinary engineering and information systems categories2026 年 6 月该刊获得首个期刊引证报告影响因子 7.4，在多学科工程与信息系统两个类别均列第一四分位。
• Articles are published continuously in annual volumes without issue numbers, and full texts are hosted on IEEE Xplore with indexing in the Emerging Sources Citation Index文章按年卷连续发表而不编期号，全文发布于（IEEE Xplore），并被（Emerging Sources Citation Index）收录。
• Review is single blind and each published article has been assessed by at least two independent reviewers, with submissions screened for plagiarism before they enter review评审采用单盲方式，每篇发表文章至少经两位独立审稿人评审，稿件在进入评审前先做重复率筛查。
• Publication follows the IEEE PSPB Operations Manual, and the journal operates on the IEEE subscription model with an open access option for authors who wish to make their papers freely available出版遵循（IEEE）出版委员会的运行手册，期刊采用订阅模式，并为希望免费开放论文的作者提供开放获取选项。

Editors

• Changyun Wen of Nanyang Technological University in Singapore has been editor-in-chief since March 2026, appointed by the society for the 2026 to 2028 term新加坡（Nanyang Technological University）的（Changyun Wen）自 2026 年 3 月起任主编，由学会任命，任期至 2028 年。
• Wen is an IEEE Fellow and a Fellow of the Academy of Engineering Singapore, known for adaptive and nonlinear control and for prescribed-time control of interconnected systems（Changyun Wen）是（IEEE）会士与新加坡工程院院士，以自适应控制、非线性控制及互联系统的预设时间控制著称。
• He combines this role with a co-editorship of IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, an associate editorship at Automatica and the executive editorship of the Journal of Control and Decision他还兼任（IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics）共同主编、（Automatica）副编辑以及（Journal of Control and Decision）执行主编。
• Associate editors are drawn from control, communications, computing and industrial artificial intelligence, matching the four technical strands that the journal combines副编辑来自控制、通信、计算与工业人工智能四个方向，与该刊所融合的四条技术主线相对应。
• Manuscripts are submitted through the IEEE Manuscript Central site, and the society appoints the editor-in-chief in three-year terms at its administrative committee meetings稿件通过（IEEE）的投稿系统提交，主编由学会在管理委员会会议上按三年一届任命。
