The International Journal of Applied Metaheuristic Computing (IJAMC) is a rigorous refereed journal that publishes high quality, innovative research on the latest developments, models, and applications within the transdisciplinary fields related to metaheuristic computing. Providing researchers, practitioners, and academicians with insight into a wide range of topics such as genetic algorithms, differential evolution, and ant colony optimization, this journal contains useful articles for those seeking to learn, analyze, improve, and apply technologies within metaheuristic computing.

The mission of International Journal of Applied Metaheuristic Computing (IJAMC) is to publish and disseminate original research on modeling, analysis, and applications in metaheuristic computing. The engineering and business problems the world faces today have become more impenetrable and unstructured, making the design of a satisfactory problem-specific algorithm nontrivial. Alternatively, researchers and practitioners look for generic metaheuristic computing that guides the course of a heuristic to search beyond the local optimality, which impairs the capability of traditional computation methods. Providing a forum for researchers, scientists, practitioners and students who wish to learn, analyze, improve and apply technologies in metaheuristic computing, IJAMC provides insights into all aspects of metaheuristic computing that take full advantage of higher level problem solving without a hassle to design problem-specific operations each time a new application appears.

IGI Global Scientific Publishing holds its journals to the highest ethical practices.
View Full Publication Ethics StatementArticle Processing Charge (APC):
Payment of the APC fee (directly to the publisher) by the author or a funding body is not required until AFTER the manuscript has gone through
the full double-anonymized peer review process and the Editor(s)-in-Chief at his/her/their full discretion has/have decided to accept the manuscript based
on the results of the double-anonymized peer review process.
What Does IGI Global Scientific Publishing's Open Access APC Cover?
In the traditional subscription-based model, the cost to the publisher to produce each article is covered by the revenue generated by journal subscriptions.
Under OA, all the articles are published under a Creative Commons (CC BY) license; therefore, the authors or funding body will pay a one-time
article processing charge (APC) to offset the costs of all of the activities associated with the publication of the article manuscript, including:
- Digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process
- Typesetting, formatting and layout
- Online hosting
- Submission of the journal's content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes
- Third-party software (e.g. plagiarism checks)
- Editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, and communications with authors and reviewers
- All promotional support and activities which include metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents
- The fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by
the authors - Professional line-by-line English language copy editing and proofreading*
*This service is only performed on article manuscripts with fully paid (not discounted or waived) APC fees.
APC Subsidizing and Funding
To assist researchers in covering the costs of the APC in OA publishing, there are various sources of OA funding.
Additionally, unlike many other publishers, IGI Global Scientific Publishing offers flexible subsidies, 100% Open Access APC funding, discounts, and more.

IGI Global Scientific Publishing recognizes that many researchers may not know where to begin when searching for OA funding opportunities. IGI Global Scientific Publishing launched an Open Access Funding Resources page for researchers to browse. This page provides a comprehensive list of OA funding sources available for researchers to secure funds for their various OA publications.
Recognizing the importance of securing funding for article processing charges (APCs) during the publication process, IGI Global Scientific Publishing has offered guidance on the optimal timing for obtaining funding.
IGI Global Scientific Publishing also provides valuable insights on how researchers can secure funding for APCs through research grants, crowdfunding, and institutional agreements, helping researchers make their work more accessible. Read more here.
