Operations and Supply Chain Management with the Application of Mathematical Models, 2nd Edition
This special issue belongs to the section “E2: Control Theory and Mechanics“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to the application of mathematical models in operations and supply chain management to deal with various operations and supply chain practices, as well as to develop efficient and effective approaches that can be implemented to improve operations and supply chain performance. We request high-quality papers that explore state-of-the-art approaches and techniques in enabling sustainable operations and supply chain management (OSCM), as well as creative applications of mathematical models related to all aspects of OSCM.
Prof. Dr. Huajun Tang
Guest Editor
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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
