ISA交易是一門關于測量和自動化的科學和工程的先進和最先進的期刊，對先進的工業從業者和應用研究人員有價值。測量的主題包括：傳感器、感知系統、分析器、信號處理、過濾、數據壓縮、數據校正、故障檢測、推理測量、軟傳感器、硬件接口等；以及支持它們的任何技術，如人工智能、模糊邏輯、通信系統和過程分析。自動化的主題包括：離散事件和連續過程控制的統計和確定策略、建模和模擬、事件觸發、調度和排序、系統可靠性、質量、維護、管理、損失預防等；以及任何設備；支持他們的技術和最佳做法，如優化、學習系統、戰略制定、安全、人員接口和培訓。目標受眾是控制系統、過程儀表、系統和自動化等領域的學術界和工業界的研發人員。該期刊試圖彌合理論與實踐之間的差距。這種利益的平衡需要技術的簡單、可信的論證、基本的基礎，以及在理論和實踐上與最先進的狀態的連接。

ISA Transactions is a journal of advances and state-of-the-art in the science and engineering of measurement and automation, of value to leading-edge industrial practitioners and applied researchers.The topics of measurement include: sensors, perception systems, analyzers, signal processing, filtering, data compression, data rectification, fault detection, inferential measurement, soft sensors, hardware interfacing, etc.; and any of the techniques that support them such as artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic, communication systems, and process analysis. The topics of automation include: statistical and deterministic strategies for discrete event and continuous process control, modelling and simulation, event triggers, scheduling and sequencing, system reliability, quality, maintenance, management, loss prevention, etc.; and any equipment, techniques and best practices that support them such as optimization, learning systems, strategy development, security, and human interfacing and training.The intended audience is research and development personnel from academe and industry in the fields of control systems, process instrumentation, systems, and automation.The journal seeks to bridge the theory and practice gap. This balance of interests requires simplicity of technique, credible demonstration, fundamental grounding, and connectivity to the state of the art in both theory and practice.
