The coverage spans a range of environments from manufacturing to mining, sports, transportation, finance, government and health services. The journal explores a variety of technical approaches, including multi-criteria decision methods, heuristics, decision support systems, and simulation. Because operational research is mainly an applied science, high-quality case studies are prominent in the articles published by the journal.Published 12 times a year, JORS is the flagship journal of the Operational Research Society.The journal is a well-established source of information that benefits a worldwide audience of practitioners, researchers, consumers, teachers and students of operational research.
