About Computation

Aims

Computation (ISSN 2079-3197), a journal of computational science and engineering. It publishes reviews, regular research papers, and communications, and there is no restriction on the maximum length of the papers. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible. Full experimental and/or methodical details must be provided for research articles. There are, in addition, unique features of this journal:

• manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed
• computed data or files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material
• manuscripts concerning summaries and surveys on research cooperation and projects (that are founded by national governments or others) provide information for a broad field of users.

Scope

• computational biology, including, but not limited to:
  • bioinformatics
  • mathematical modeling, simulation and prediction of nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) and protein sequences, structure and functions
  • mathematical modeling of pathways and genetic interactions
  • neuroscience computation including neural modeling, brain theory and neural networks
• computational chemistry, including, but not limited to:
  • new theories and methodology including their applications in molecular dynamics
  • computation of electronic structure
  • density functional theory
  • designing and characterization of materials with computation method
• computation in engineering, including, but not limited to:
  • new theories, methodology and the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
  • optimisation techniques and/or application of optimisation to multidisciplinary systems
  • system identification and reduced order modelling of engineering systems
  • parallel algorithms and high performance computing in engineering

MDPI Publication Ethics Statement

MDPI is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). MDPI takes the responsibility to enforce a rigorous peer-review together with strict ethical policies and standards to ensure to add high quality scientific works to the field of scholarly publication. Unfortunately, cases of plagiarism, data falsification, inappropriate authorship credit, and the like, do arise. MDPI takes such publishing ethics issues very seriously and our editors are trained to proceed in such cases with a zero tolerance policy. To verify the originality of content submitted to our journals, we use iThenticate to check submissions against previous publications.
