Objective

IPSUMTEC is a peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to the dissemination of original theoretical and applied research in the fields of engineering and emerging technologies. Its purpose is to serve as a scientific forum that promotes dialogue among the academic community, industry, and society, fostering technological innovation and its impact on sustainable development.

The journal welcomes original contributions in the form of research articles, review articles, case studies, and technical notes within the following thematic tracks:

Artificial Intelligence, Data, and Automation

Research oriented toward the development, integration, and application of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), data science, applied analytics, computer vision, and smart manufacturing in industrial processes, automation, and precision agro-industry (crop monitoring, irrigation control, automated pest detection, and agricultural field optimization).

Energy and Sustainable Mobility

Studies on renewable energy, energy efficiency, smart grid integration, sustainable mobility systems, technologies for energy transition, and the energy valorization of biomass and agro-industrial waste (bioenergy, biogas, biofuels production, and thermal optimization in post-harvest processing).

Technology Management and Industrial Innovation

Research on digital transformation, technology management, applied engineering in production processes, and innovation in industrial systems and agri-food supply chains, with emphasis on strategic management, logistics, quality control, circular economy, and innovation management in sustainable systems.

Engineering Education and Interdisciplinary Development

Studies on engineering education, technological pedagogy, technical competency development, knowledge transfer, and interdisciplinary solutions aimed at the sustainable development of society, rural community strengthening, and technological adaptation to climate change.
