Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mathematical modeling and optimization are essential tools for logistics and manufacturing in today’s global economy. These techniques can be used to solve a wide range of problems, including routing, scheduling, inventory management, and production planning. By using mathematical modeling and optimization, businesses can become more efficient, reduce costs, and improve customer satisfaction. Mathematical modeling and optimization are powerful tools that can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of logistics and manufacturing operations. In addition, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and digital twins are all playing increasingly important roles in logistics and manufacturing. These technologies are used to automate tasks, improve decision-making, and optimize operations. Digital twins are virtual representations of physical systems. They can simulate real-world processes and predict how such processes will behave in the future. Machine learning, artificial intelligence, and digital twins are all powerful technologies that have the potential to revolutionize logistics and manufacturing.
As the Guest Editor of this Special Issue, I invite practitioners, professionals, and researchers to submit studies of the application of optimization, simulation, and digital twin techniques to improve organizations’ logistics and manufacturing processes.
Prof. Dr. Jose Antonio Marmolejo-Saucedo
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 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.
