Aims & Scope
Computational Optimization and Applications is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the analysis and development of computational algorithms and optimization modeling technology. Publishes research on general and specific classes of optimization problems, encompassing stochastic and deterministic algorithms. Covers a broad spectrum of optimization topics, including large scale, unconstrained, constrained, nondifferentiable, combinatorial, stochastic, multiobjective, and network optimization. Features research and tutorial papers providing theoretical analysis, complemented by meticulously designed computational experiments. Welcomes submissions that offer both theoretical analysis, along with carefully designed computational experiments.

Frequently asked questions about Computational Optimization and Applications
Is Computational Optimization and Applications a predatory journal?
PubScope has no integrity flags on record for Computational Optimization and Applications: it is indexed in Web of Science, Scopus, and is not on DOAJ's withdrawn list. Its PubScope Trust Score is 90/100. Indexing is a transparency signal, not a guarantee — always confirm fit and policies before submitting.
What is the impact factor of Computational Optimization and Applications?
Computational Optimization and Applications is indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection, so Clarivate publishes an official Journal Impact Factor for it (since the 2023 Journal Citation Reports, every Core Collection journal — including Arts & Humanities and Emerging Sources titles — receives one). PubScope links to Clarivate's official source rather than reprinting the number, which can be out of date. Its open 2-year mean citedness is 2.03.
