About the journal
Aims & Scope
Computational Optimization and Applications is a peer reviewed journal that is committed to timely publication of research and tutorial papers on the analysis and development of computational algorithms and modeling technology for optimization. Algorithms either for general classes of optimization problems or for more specific applied problems are of interest. Stochastic algorithms as well as deterministic algorithms will be considered. Papers that can provide both theoretical analysis, along with carefully designed computational experiments, are particularly welcome.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
- Large Scale Optimization,
- Unconstrained Optimization,
- Linear Programming,
- Quadratic Programming Complementarity Problems, and Variational Inequalities,
- Constrained Optimization,
- Nondifferentiable Optimization,
- Integer Programming,
- Combinatorial Optimization,
- Stochastic Optimization,
- Multiobjective Optimization,
- Network Optimization,
- Complexity Theory,
- Approximations and Error Analysis,
- Parametric Programming and Sensitivity Analysis,
- Parallel Computing, Distributed Computing, and Vector Processing,
- Software, Benchmarks, Numerical Experimentation and Comparisons,
- Modelling Languages and Systems for Optimization,
- Automatic Differentiation,
- Applications in Engineering, Finance, Optimal Control, Optimal Design, Operations Research, Transportation, Economics, Communications, Manufacturing, and Management Science.
Computational Optimization and Applications is published 9 times per year with distribution to librarians, researchers in optimization, and mathematical and computer scientists with a strong interest in the above topics. The journal maintains strict refereeing procedures through its editorial policies in order to publish papers of only the highest quality.
Please, visit the unique COAP Software Forum at http://www.math.ufl.edu/~coap/ for the following optimization software information:
- Benchmarks,
- A decision tree,
- Test problems,
- Software associated with journal articles.
Instructions to Authors
Authors are encouraged to submit high quality, original work that has neither appeared in, nor is under consideration by, other journals.
Process for Submission
- Authors should submit five hard copies of their final manuscript to:

E-mail: cheryl.knight@wkap.com
For prompt attention, all correspondence can be directed to this address.
- Enclose with each manuscript, on a separate page, from three to five keywords.
- Enclose originals for the illustrations, in the style described below, for one copy of the manuscript. Photocopies of the figures may accompany the remaining copies of the manuscript. Alternatively, original illustrations may be submitted after the paper has been accepted.
- Enclose a separate page giving the preferred address of the contact author for correspondence and return of proofs. Please include a telephone number, fax number and e-mail address, if available.
- The refereeing is done by anonymous reviewers.
Electronic Delivery
Please send only the electronic version (of ACCEPTED paper) via one of the methods listed below. Note, in the event of minor discrepancies, the electronic file will be used as the final version.
The Kluwer LaTeX journal style file is no longer the preferred format for accepted paper submissions. Kluwer will accept any format for accepted paper submissions.
Via electronic mail
- Please e-mail ACCEPTED, FINAL papers to: KAPfiles@wkap.com
- Recommended formats for sending files via e-mail:
- Binary files - uuencode or binhex
- Compressing files - compress, pkzip, or gzip
- Collecting files - tar
- The e-mail message should include the author‘s last name, the name of the journal to which the paper has been accepted, and the type of file (e.g., LaTeX or ASCII).
Via anaonymous FTPftp: ftp.wkap.com
cd:/incoming/production
Send e-mail to KAPfiles@wkap.com to inform Kluwer electronic version is at this FT site.
Via disk
- Label a 3.5 inch floppy disk with the operating system and word processing program along with the authors‘ names, manuscript title, and name of journal to which the paper has been accepted.
- Mail disk to:
Kluwer Academic Publishers
Desktop Department
101 Philip Drive
Assinippi Park
Norwell, MA 02061, USA
Any questions about the above procedures please send e-mail to: dthelp@wkap.com
Style for Manuscript
- Typeset, double or 1 1/2 space; use one side of sheet only (laser printed, typewritten and good quality duplication acceptable).
- Use an informative title for the paper and include an abstract of 100 to 250 words at the head of the manuscript. The abstract should be a carefully worded description of the problem addressed, the key ideas introduced, and the results. Abstracts will be printed with the article.
- Provide a separate double-spaced sheet listing all footnotes, beginning with "Affiliation of author" and continuing with numbered footnotes. Acknowledgment of financial support may be given if appropriate. References in the text should be denoted by numbers in square brackets, e.g. [12].
- References should appear in a separate bibliography at the end of the paper double spaced with items referred to by numerals and put in alphabetical order. References should be complete, in the following style:
Style for papers:
Author(s) initials followed by last name for each author, paper title, publication name, volume, inclusive page numbers, month and year.
Style for books:
Author(s), title, publisher, location, year, chapter or page numbers (if desired). Examples as follows:
- (Book) D. Marr, Vision, A Computational Investigation into the Human Representation & Processing of Visual Information, Freeman: San Francisco, CA, 1982.
- (Journal Article) A. Rosenfeld and M. Thurston, "Edge and curve detection for visual scene analysis," IEEE Trans. Comput., vol. C.-20, pp. 562-569, 1971.
- (Conference Proceedings) A. Witkin, "Scales space filtering," in Proc. Int. Joint Conf. Artif. Intell., Karlsruhe, West Germany, 1983, pp. 1019-1021.
- (Lab. memo.) A.L. Yuille and T. Poggio, "Scaling theorems for zero crossings," M.I.T. Artif. Intell. Lab., Massachusetts Inst. Technol., Cambridge, MA, A.I. Memo. 722, 1983.
- Type or mark mathematical expressions exactly as they should appear in print. Journal style for letter symbols is as follows: variables, italic type (indicated by underline); constants, roman text type; matrices and vectors, boldface type (indicated by wavy underline). In word-processor manuscripts, use appropriate typeface. It will be assumed that letters in displayed equations are to be set in italic type unless you mark them otherwise. All letter symbols in text discussion must be marked if they should be italic or boldface. Indicate best breaks for equations in case they will not fit on one line.
Style for Illustrations
- Originals for illustrations should be sharp, noise-free, and of good contrast. We regret that we cannot provide drafting or art service.
- Line drawings should be in laser printer output or in India ink on paper, or board. Use 8 1/2 x 11-inch (22 x 29 cm) size sheets if possible, to simplify handling of the manuscript.
- Each figure should be mentioned in the text and numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals. Specify the desired location of each figure in the text, but place the figure itself on a separate page following the text.
- Number each table consecutively using Arabic numerals. Please label any material that can be typeset as a table, reserving the term "figure" for material that has been drawn. Specify the desired location of each table in the text, but place the table itself on a separate page following the text. Type a brief title above each table.
- All lettering should be large enough to permit legible reduction.
- Photographs should be glossy prints, of good contrast and gradation, and any reasonable size.
- Number each original on the back.
- Provide a separate sheet listing all figure captions, in proper style for the typesetter, e.g., "Fig. 3. Examples of the fault coverage of random vectors in (a) combinational and (b) sequential circuits."
Proofing
Page proofs for articles to be included in a journal issue will be sent to the contact author for proofing, unless otherwise informed. The proofread copy should be received back by the Publisher within 72 hours.
Copyright
It is the policy of Kluwer Academic Publishers to own the copyright of all contributions it publishes. To comply with the U.S. Copyright Law, authors are required to sign a copyright transfer form before publication. This form returns to authors and their employers full rights to reuse their material for their own purposes. Authors must submit a signed copy of this form with their manuscript.
