Aims & Scope

Optimization publishes refereed, theoretical and applied papers on the latest developments in fields such as linear, nonlinear, stochastic, parametric, discrete and dynamic programming, control theory and game theory. A special section is devoted to review papers on theory and methods in interesting areas of mathematical programming and optimization techniques. The journal also publishes conference proceedings, book reviews and announcements. All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.
