The Journal of Combinatorial Designs is an international journal devoted to the timely publication of the most influential papers in the area of combinatorial design theory. All topics in design theory, and in which design theory has important applications, are covered, including: block designs, t-designs, pairwise balanced designs and group divisible designs Latin squares, quasigroups, and related algebras computational methods in design theory construction methods applications in computer science, experimental design theory, and coding theory graph decompositions, factorizations, and design-theoretic techniques in graph theory and extremal combinatorics finite geometry and its relation with design theory. algebraic aspects of design theory.Researchers and scientists can depend on the Journal of Combinatorial Designs for the most recent developments in this rapidly growing field, and to provide a forum for both theoretical research and applications. All papers appearing in the Journal of Combinatorial Designs are carefully peer refereed.A subscription to the Journal of Graph Theory includes a subscription to the Journal of Combinatorial Designs .

This journal advances and promotes the theory and applications of combinatorial optimization, which is an area of research at the intersection of applied mathematics, computer science, and operations research and which overlaps with many other areas such as computation complexity, computational biology, VLSI design, communication networks, and management science. It includes complexity analysis and algorithm design for combinatorial optimization problems, numerical experiments and problem discovery with applications in science and engineering. The Journal of Combinatorial Optimization publishes refereed papers dealing with all theoretical, computational and applied aspects of combinatorial optimization. It also publishes reviews of appropriate books and special issues of journals.
