Journal of Optimization & Decision Making (JODM) is an open access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing original research in industrial engineering, optimization, and management science. The journal emphasizes quantitative methods and their practical applications to address complex challenges in economic, social, and managerial contexts. JODM aims to serve as a platform for cutting-edge research that advances theoretical and applied approaches in operations research, decision analysis, and systems engineering. In particular, the articles published deal with the following subjects:

• Decision Support Systems

• Mathematical Programming

• Optimization

• Production planning and  Manufacturing system

• Supply chain management and Logistics

• Machine learning and data-driven optimization

• Sustainable decision-making and green optimization

• Business Intelligence and Operations Management

• Computational Intelligence

• Econometric and Statistical Methods

• Queueing theory with applications

• Stochastic processes

• Healthcare optimization

• Forecasting

• Game Theory

• Information Management

• Project Management

• Inventory management

• Simulation

The journal features papers with substantial theoretical discussions on operational research and decision-making methodologies, as well as detailed descriptions of quantitative methods and their application to solving practical economic and social problems.

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.

The journal publishes manuscripts either in Turkish or in English.

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.

Articles uploaded to the journal are scanned with the iThenticate plagiarism package program before they are taken into the valuation process. For articles with a similarity rate of more than 20%, correction is requested from the author. If the required correction is not made within 10 days, the article is rejected.

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.

There is no article submission, article-editorial processing, publication charges or any other charges.

All accepted articles are freely available online upon publication.
