Congratulations!

“Congratulations” to two of our area editors who have been elevated to INFORMS Fellows. INFORMS selects only 12 members for this distinction each year so it is competitive indeed. Both Andrea Lodi, Area Editor of Design & Analysis of Algorithms—Discrete, and Ted Ralphs, Area Editor of Software Tools, were awarded this quite prestigious honor in October.

IJOC AI Policy

Reviewing a technical manuscript implies responsibilities that can only be attributed to humans. The critical thinking and assessment required for peer-review are outside the scope of generative AI and AI-assisted technologies, and there is a risk that the technology will generate incorrect, incomplete, or biased outcomes. These considerations, together with the principle that submitted manuscripts are to be treated as confidential documents, results in the IJOC Generative AI policies for reviewers and editors; get the details here, under "Preparing Your Manuscript": Artificial Intelligence: Reviewing and Generative Artificial Intelligence Policy.

IJOC Length Policy

The INFORMS Journal on Computing has a new length policy for submissions to ScholarOne Manuscripts, effective September 1, 2023. For more information, visit our Submission Guidelines for the Length Policy located under "Preparing Your Manuscript."
