Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to publishing original research papers that explore the intersection of mathematics and software engineering, particularly in the realm of computational advancements. It emphasizes the development of innovative theories and methods that contribute to this dynamic field. The scope of this Special Issue encompasses the design, implementation, and analysis of sophisticated algorithms and software tools. These tools are pivotal for mathematical computation and reasoning, especially in their application to scientific and engineering challenges.
A key area of focus is the convergence of mathematical computation with software engineering. This convergence, though highly abstract, is instrumental in advancing computer science. At its core, this Special Issue explores software tools and algorithms grounded in mathematical models, underscoring the foundational role of mathematics in computer science. It delves into applied mathematics, particularly discrete mathematics, which plays a crucial role in converting continuous models into discrete forms, thereby facilitating the interaction between computers and human understanding.
Furthermore, this Special Issue highlights the growing importance of mathematical proofs in computer science. These proofs are essential for certifying the reliability of software and hardware systems, offering assurances beyond what testing alone can provide.
Overall, this Special Issue seeks to capture the latest developments and research in mathematical computation and software engineering, covering a wide range of methods, approaches, and related topics.
Topics of this Special Issue include (but not limited to):
- Algorithmic game theory and mechanism design in software engineering;
- Mathematical modelling of software engineering metrics;
- Fuzzy logic and fuzzy systems;
- Fuzzy cognitive maps, fuzzy decision making, and fuzzy optimization;

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).
