About the journal
|
The objective of Journal of Combinatorial Optimization is to advance and promote the theory and applications of combinatorial optimization, which is an area of research at the intersection of applied mathematics, computer science, and operations research and which overlaps with many other areas such as computation complexity, computational biology, VLSI design, communication networks, and management science. It includes complexity analysis and algorithm design for combinatorial optimization problems, numerical experiments and problem discovery with applications in science and engineering.
The Journal of Combinatorial Optimization publishes refereed papers dealing with all theoretical, computational and applied aspects of combinatorial optimization. It also publishes reviews of appropriate books and special issues of journals.

Fax: 781-878-0449
Email: Melissa.Andersen@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 key words. 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 electronic version (of ACCEPTED paper) via one of the methods listed below. Note, in the event of minor discrepancies between the electronic version and hard copy, 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 electronic version 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 authors 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 anonymous ftpftp: ftp.wkap.com
cd: /incoming/production
Send e-mail to KAPfiles@wkap.com to inform Kluwer electronic version is at theis FTP 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

Any questions about the above procedures please send e-mail to: dthelp@wkap.com
Traditional 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-space sheet listing all footnotes, beginning with "affiliation of author" and continuing with numbered footnotes.
- Acknowledgment of financial support may be given if appropriate.
- References should follow the author-date format (Brown, 1994). The reference listing should appear separately in alphabetical order at the end of the paper. 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 copy 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 or paper or board. Use 8 1/2 x 11-inch size sheets if possible, to simplify handling of the manuscript.
- Each figure should be mentioned in the text and numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals. Define any acronyms used in the figure. 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.
- Mark lightly in pencil on the top left corner of the back of each original the name of the author and the figure number.
- 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.
