Special Issue Information
Hardware development and the consequent increase in computing power have prompted even further the theoretical development and the empirical implementations and validation of complex econometric models. However, as some recent studies point out, this often requires the development of software capable of producing reliable and accurate parameter estimates. Econometric packages are often inadequate or producing spurious estimation differences when dealing with econometric models, even simpler ones. Accurate computing principles are then in much demand in econometric computing.
We therefore invite submissions for the special issue of Econometrics on Econometric Computing. Research topics should be related to econometric computing. Papers pointing out shortcomings and causes of current state-of-art econometric software are also welcomed. All papers submitted must contain original unpublished work that is not being submitted for publication elsewhere. Ideally, software, programming code and data should be made available to the scientific community as reference.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Econometrics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
