Emerald Publishing invites applications for the positions of Associate Editor with COMPEL: The international journal for computation and mathematics in electrical and electronic engineering. We are expanding our board to better reflect the diverse regions that the journal serves. As part of this effort, we are especially interested in welcoming new members from East Asia to enhance our regional insights and representation. We also encourage applications from individuals across all geographies and backgrounds. Our goal is to build a wider board that reflects a wide range of perspectives, experiences, and voices.


Journal Scope

COMPEL's aim is to provide a forum for the discussion and dissemination of computational and analytical methods in electrical and electronic engineering. It also carries a prestigious selection of top quality, refereed articles with the emphasis on new methods and techniques, as well as the application of existing techniques in a novel way. While some contributions have immediate relevance to particular engineering problems, others form a basis for further developments in the area of study.
