Editorial Policy

SIMAX publishes papers in matrix analysis and its applications and papers of interest to the numerical linear algebra community. Applications include such areas as signal processing, systems and control theory, statistics, Markov chains, and mathematical biology. In addition, papers that are of a theoretical nature but have a possible impact on applications will also be considered for publication.

Due to space limitations, it is recommended that papers be limited to 20 journal pages. Longer papers can be considered but authors should be aware that such papers are harder to referee and therefore take more time to review. Submission of a manuscript to a SIAM journal is representation by the author that the manuscript has not been published or submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. In general, papers that have appeared in conference proceedings will not be considered unless significantly revised. If a paper has appeared previously, in any form, authors must clearly indicate this in both their cover letter and in a footnote on the first page of the paper.
