Abstract :
In this issue of IEEE Control Systems Magazine (CSM), we speak with two editors of control publications¿and one former editor. Jie Chen of the University of California at Riverside and Brett Ninness of the University of Newcastle are the editors, respectively, of the Journal of Control Science and Engineering and IET Control Theory. The former journal is the first Web-based control journal, while the latter journal has a long history of operation under several names. We took this opportunity to find out more about the development and operation of these publications as well as their plans for the future. Jie and Brett are both active researchers in the control field, and we learn about their interests and views on control research and education.
