Mathematical Methods and Models in Software Engineering, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

Mathematical methods and modelling target the formal presentation and quantification of problems, the solutions for which have wide applications in practice for activities as control, planning, decision making, and management of complex systems. In particular, the main tools for solving everyday problems are in information, computer and communication environments. These computational and information environments are running under software tools, which operate under formal methods and models. This Special Issue targets the illustration of different solutions, which take part in such virtual environments. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following: advances in information systems and technologies, digital transformation of processes, advances in software and system engineering, Information system management, Internet of things, challenges and applications, autonomic computing, computer aspects of numerical algorithms, scalable computing, advances in network systems and applications, software engineering, and knowledge acquisition and management. We expect the submitted papers to present solutions and examples based on mathematical optimization, algorithms for application domains, approximation algorithms, operation research approaches and other formal approaches. We are inviting submissions to this Special Issue of Mathematics entitled “Mathematical Methods and Models in Software Engineering”.

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. 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.
