From Editorial Policy
The European Journal of Operational Research (EJOR)
publishes high quality, original papers that contribute to
the methodology of Operational Research (OR) and to
the practice of decision making.
The relation with ongoing research should be demonstrated
by providing proper reference to the recent OR literature.
With application papers, originality should be demonstrated by
applying OR to a problem with interesting new aspects or by
providing fresh insights leading to successful implementation.

43Final remarks
With the current pressure on publications in top tier journals,
the number of submissions to EJOR has grown significantly.
In this situation, the Editors of EJOR had to adjust their
editorial policy and became more strict regarding the focus
of the submissions on Operational Research (OR).
Although diversity and interface of OR with other disciplines are still
strong points of EJOR, the Editors are now more demanding
regarding the centrality of the use of OR methodology to support
decision-making on real-world inspired problems.
