The International Association of Engineers (IAENG) is a non-profit international association for engineers and computer scientists. IAENG was founded by a group of engineers and computer scientists in 1968, originally as a private club network for its founding members.[1] Nowadays, IAENG has its secretariat office in Hong Kong with more than 140,000 members (May 2014) and holds the annual congress World Congress on Engineering [2] for the engineering research communities.
The association is a promoter of the open-access publications. All of its current publications [3] [4] [5] have adopted the open-access policy, including its popular title Engineering Letters.[6] The association also cooperates with publishers like Springer, American Institute of Physics and World Scientific Publishing etc. to publish the book series IAENG Transactions on Engineering Technologies.[7] [8] [9]
