Dear Dr. Neumann, 

We would like to welcome and invite you to contribute manuscript(s) 
related to the following Special Issue for consideration and publication 
in Systems (ISSN 2079-8954, http://www.mdpi.com/journal/systems). 

Special Issue: Engineering Socio-Technical Systems 
Website: http://www.mdpi.com/si/systems/eng-soc-tec-syst/ 
Guest Editor: Dr. Thomas V. Huynh 
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 May 2013 

Systems - an online, quarterly published journal on systems science 
and engineering - is one of several open-access, peer-reviewed 
journals published by MDPI; the list of these journals can be found at: 
http://www.mdpi.com/about/journals/.  
Open access (unlimited and free access by readers) increases 
publicity and promotes more frequent citations as indicated by 
several studies. Open access is supported by the authors and 
their institutions. More information is available at: 
http://www.mdpi.com/about/openaccess/. 

The MDPI Editorial Board members, including several Nobel 
Laureates (http://www.mdpi.com/about/nobelists/), are all leading 
active scholars. All MDPI journals maintain rigorous and rapid 
peer-review, manuscript handling, and editorial processes. MDPI 
journals have been found to have increased their impact factors, 
see "2011 Newly Released Impact Factors," 
http://www.mdpi.com/about/announcements/235. 

You may send your manuscript now or up until the deadline. 
Submitted papers should not have been published previously, 
nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere. We also 
encourage authors to email a tentative title and a short abstract 
of their papers prior to the paper submissions for approval to 
the Editorial Office at: systems@mdpi.com. 

Article Processing Charges (APC) are waived for invited papers. 
However, a fee of 250 CHF (Swiss franc) may apply if major 
English editing of the papers must be undertaken by the MDPI 
Editorial Office. Authors, whose primary language is not English 
and who wish to avoid paying this fee, are encouraged to collaborate 
with native English authors or ask an English editing company to help 
with improving the language quality of their papers before submission.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors before submitting a manuscript: 
http://www.mdpi.com/journal/systems/instructions/.
Manuscripts should be submitted through the online manuscript submission 
and editorial system at http://www.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/. 

In case of questions, please contact the Editorial Office at: 
systems@mdpi.com. 

We are looking forward to hearing from you. 

Kind Regards, 
Grace Lu
