King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) is a non-
profit scientific governmental institution. It supports and enhances
scientific applied research and coordinates the activities of
government institutions and scientific research centers in accordance
to the requirements of development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
KACST also distributes its scientific publications to researchers,
students and interested members of the public. It is seeking to
disseminate the written and translated scientific books in order
to be available for a wide range of Arabic readers. All KACST
publications are also available electronically as open content on its
website; http://publications.kacst.edu.sa

KACST has been working on an ecosystem that would enhance the
success of National Plans for Science, Technology and Innovation.
One component of such a complex ecosystem is to provide knowledge
about the 15 strategic technologies for Saudi Arabia.
KACST started with its partner, Springer, in 2011 to publish 5journals; Applied Water Science, Journal of Petroleum Exploration
and Production Technology, Applied Petrochemical Research,
Applied Nanoscience, and 3 Biotech.
Two more journals, Materials for Renewable & Sustainable Energy
and Complex & Intelligent Systems, have been lately added to the
previous ones in 2013 and 2014, respectively.
KACST, by publishing these journals, is providing the researchers
in Saudi Arabia and worldwide with the latest developments and
research in the areas of these journals, in addition of, making them
available for researchers to publish their research results. The
journals are open access and publish without charging the authors.
