There was an insane amount of police from the train station up to Markt today (a parked police car/van + 3/4 agents every 100 meters almost), I’m trying to find if there’s some important event taking place but I can’t find anything. Anybody knows what’s the occasion?
Hey all,
I’m doing my thesis in optimisation / algorithms and, in a nutshell, I have come up with a novel (to the best of my knowledge) polynomial algorithm for a problem that was already known to be polynomial only through LP machinery though.
Now (assuming every proof holds and the approach is indeed novel) I am trying to find a place to submit the paper to be published, but I have no idea how to choose one. Most of the papers I have used for references come from either Mathematics of Operations Research or OR Letters. Are these the right places to target? Is peer review biased? (ie. They see I’m a BSc student and they disregard the paper right away - maybe an exaggeration but you get my point). Would love some insight from academics in the field / reviewers / people affiliated with publishing etc.
Any comments / questions are welcome!!
Thank you for reading
Hi all,
I’m a final year BSc student working on a scheduling problem for my thesis. The idea is that for my model its complexity is already known, so it’s proven to be polynomial but only through LP machinery arguments. There doesn’t exist a concrete algorithm for it (to the best of my knowledge). I have managed to come up with one and prove its correctness and I was wondering would this be worthy of publication at a serious place like Journal of Scheduling or OR Letters? This is my first time ever doing research and I really really like it but I’m trying to understand the whole publication world and the scope overall.
Any suggestions / questions are welcome!
Thank you
