Focus and Scope

International Journal of Quantitative Research and Modeling (IJQRM) is published 4 times a year and is the flagship journal of the Research Collaboration Community (RCC). It is the aim of IJQRM to present papers which cover the theory, practice, history or methodology of Quatitative Research (QR) and Mathematical Moodeling (MM). However, since Quatitative Research (QR) and Mathematical Moodeling (MM) are primarily an applied science, it is a major objective of the journal to attract and publish accounts of good, practical case studies. Consequently, papers illustrating applications of Quatitative Research (QR) and Mathematical Modeling (MM) to real problems are especially welcome.

  • In real applications of Quatitative Research (QR) and Mathematical Moodeling (MM): forecasting, inventory, investment, location, logistics, maintenance, marketing, packing, purchasing, production, project management, reliability and scheduling.
  • In a wide variety of environments: community Quatitative Research (QR) and Mathematical Moodeling (MM), education, energy, finance, government, health services, manufacturing industries, mining, sports, and transportation.
  • In technical approaches: decision support systems, expert systems, heuristics, networks, mathematical programming, multicriteria decision methods, problems structuring methods, queues, and simulation

Articles

Checked Open Submissions Checked Indexed Checked Peer Reviewed
 

Peer Review Process

The submitted manuscript is first checked by an editor, whether it is suitable with our focus and scope, in two weeks. A editorial assistant will check whether the requirements are complete in one week. Authors will be given two weeks after notification is sent to complete the incomplete requirements. Every submitted manuscript which pass this step will be reviewed by two or three reviewers (double blind peer-review). At least one of the reviewer is appointed from other institutions. These manuscript will be sent to the reviewer anonymously. Reviewers comment are then sent to corresponding author to take the necessary actions and responses. The decision of the revised manuscript will be then evaluated in editorial board meeting, the final decision of whom are sent to the corresponding author. The accepted manuscript will be checked by copyeditor for language editing.

Publication Ethics

International Journal of Quantitative Research and Modeling (IJQRM) and is the flagship journal of the Research Collaboration Community (RCC), it is the aim of IJQRM to present papers which cover the theory, practice, history or methodology of Quantitative Research and Modeling (QRM). However, since QRM is primarily an applied science, it is a major objective of the journal to attract and publish accounts of good, practical case studies. Consequently, papers illustrating applications of OR to real problems are especially welcome. This statement of scientific code of ethics is a statement of code of ethics for all parties involved in the publication process of this scientific journal, namely the writer, editor, reviewer.

1. Standard for Authors

  • Article standard, Authors must certify that their manuscripts are their original work. Plagiarism, Duplicate, Data Fabrication and Falsification, and Redundant Publications are forbidden.
