Aim & Scope
Journal of Optimization & Decision Making (JODM) is an open access, peer-reviewed journal which includes original scientific papers covering the full scope of operations research. Special emphasis is placed on quantitative methods and their application as a tool to solve economic, social and management problems. In particular, the articles published deal with the following subjects:
• Business Intelligence
• Business Operations Management
• Computational Intelligence
• Decision Support Systems
• Econometric and Statistical Methods
• Forecasting
• Game Theory
• Information Management
• Mathematical Programming
• Optimization
• Production, Manufacturing and Logistics
• Project Management
• Simulation
The papers presented contain substantial theoretical discussions concerning the methodology of operational research and decision making, as well as descriptions of quantitative methods and applications of these techniques to solving practical problems of an economic and social nature.
The journal observes a code of ethics based on academic standards. A basic element in fully understanding these ethical rules and abiding by them is reading the ethical standards of the journal.
The full texts of articles are freely available from the Journal of Optimization and Decision Making web site according to a Creative Commons Licence (CC BY-NC-ND).
The definitive version of the journal is the online version. The journal is published by the Industrial Engineering Department of AYBU.

Ethical Principles and Publication Policy
The JODM is a peer-reviewed journal published two times a year by Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University.
Manuscripts written in English or Turkish language are accepted.
Original research articles presenting detailed theoretical or practical content are published. Articles in this category are expected to bring a new dimension to the existing knowledge in the field of engineering or to contribute to extending knowledge in the field or to present a comprehensive practical application.
Technical notes, letters to the editor, discussion papers, case presentations and translations are not published in the journal.
Manuscripts submitted to the journal must not be published in any place or sent to any other journal for publication.
Manuscripts are evaluated by national and/or international referees. This journal uses double-blind review, which means that both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process.

Manuscripts which are rejected by the majority of the referees are rejected in accordance with the suggestion of the field editor.
The responsibility of the manuscript belongs to the respective authors. In order to comply with ethical standards, manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with internationally recognized code of ethics.
Only one article with the same author can be published within the same issue.
The copyright of the articles accepted to be published in the journal are transferred to the journal.
There are no manuscript submission fees or manuscript processing fees for the journal.
A conflict of interest and author contribution declaration are required for each article published within the journal.
