Dear Professor,

We would like to inform you about the launch of second issue for “An International Journal of Optimization and Control: Theories & Applications” (IJOCTA). IJOCTA (ISSN 2146-0957) is a peer-reviewed international academic journal dealing with issues about optimization, control, and their applications. For now the journal is an online free access along with a limited paper publication.

This issue is going to be published in January 2012. Therefore, the IJOCTA Editors are currently questing papers for the second issue.

The journal mission is to publish articles on all aspects of optimization:

· Applied Mathematics

· Financial Mathematics

· Control Theory

· Game Theory

· Fractional Calculus

· Fractional Optimal Control

· Modeling of Bio-systems for Optimization and Control

· Linear Programming

· Nonlinear Programming

· Stochastic Programming

· Parametric Programming

· Conic Programming

· Discrete Programming

· Dynamic Programming

· Operational Research in Life and Human Sciences

· Optimization with Artificial Intelligence

· Applications Related to Optimization on Engineering

· Heuristic Algorithms in Optimization

We welcome all submissions relevant to the field of research and theoretical manuscripts, conference proceedings, book reviews and expository papers.

We therefore would like to ask you to forward this mail to members of your department and colleagues so that they may be interested in and aware of the IJOCTA as a potential source for publication. Also we will be welcomed to receive good quality manuscripts from your graduate students researching in the field of optimization.
