The ease of migration has brought global change and a multitude of new issues and opportunities for nations and immigrants. To reflect an interdisciplinary and broader range of subjects, the Journal of Immigrant & Refugee Services has been renamed the Journal of Immigrant & Refugee Studies. As always, the journal remains a peer-reviewed publication that is now interdisciplinary and international in scope exploring issues such as immigration policy, health and mental health of immigrants, sociological and/or economic implications of immigration/emigration, and business practices in serving immigrants and refugees, present and future programs and services, and other related topics.The Journal of Immigrant & Refugee Studies explores the effects of worldwide migration. The range of opportunities offered across the globe as well as traumas caused by war, revolutions, famine, terrorism, and economic difficulties have seen the movements of thousands of people who have left their homes, migrating either across regions or across borders. Nations are faced with the task of developing policies and programs to accommodate these waves of migration, particularly in the face of the increasing displacement of large groups of people. Countries losing citizens must adapt to the drains on their workforces. On the other hand, movements of people also provide unanticipated opportunities to nations that accept newcomers, many of whom may bring substantial human, social, and financial capital. Migration, then, has benefits and difficulties both for those migrating and for the nations affected. Resources entering countries can enhance and strengthen them; however, xenophobia, cross-cultural conflicts, and adaptation difficulties can be particularly troubling. This journal explores the experiences of migration, its social, economic, and political impact on receiving nations and regions, and the effects of emigration on the home territories. It provides a forum for quality knowledge and research in an area that is expected to continue to grow substantially.The Journal of Immigrant & Refugee Studies is international in scope, with full-length theoretical, empirical, and programmatic articles from national and international authorities discussing the pressing concerns of those who migrate into, through, or out of a country and those nations affected by them.

The Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems is devoted to scholarly research on the development, planning, management, operation and evaluation of intelligent transportation systems. Intelligent transportation systems are innovative solutions that address contemporary transportation problems. They are characterized by information, dynamic feedback and automation that allow people and goods to move efficiently. They encompass the full scope of information technologies used in transportation, including control, computation and communication, as well as the algorithms, databases, models and human interfaces. The emergence of these technologies as a new pathway for transportation is relatively new. The Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems is especially interested in research that leads to improved planning and operation of the transportation system through the application of new technologies. The journal is particularly interested in research that adds to the scientific understanding of the impacts that intelligent transportation systems can have on accessibility, congestion, pollution, safety, security, noise, and energy and resource consumption. The journal is inter-disciplinary, and accepts work from fields of engineering, economics, planning, policy, business and management, as well as any other disciplines that contribute to the scientific understanding of intelligent transportation systems. The journal is also multi-modal, and accepts work on intelligent transportation for all forms of ground, air and water transportation. Example topics include the role of information systems in transportation, traffic flow and control, vehicle control, routing and scheduling, traveler response to dynamic information, planning for ITS innovations, evaluations of ITS field operational tests, ITS deployment experiences, automated highway systems, vehicle control systems, diffusion of ITS, and tools/software for analysis of ITS. All articles appearing in the Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems undergo a rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and at least two anonymous peer reviewers providing comments.
