EURO Journal on Decision Processes

Published in collaboration with the Association of European Operational Research Societies (EURO)

The open access Article Publishing Charge (APC) fee will be covered by EURO for a limited number of articles submitted by 31st December 2025. Only applicable to articles where the authors institution does not provide open access support. Contact the Journal Manager for more information.

The EURO Journal on Decision Processes (EJDP) promotes and publishes scientific knowledge on the theoretical, methodological, behavioural and organizational topics that contribute to the understanding and appropriate use of operational research in supporting different phases of decision making processes. Methodologically, EDJP covers both qualitative and quantitative approaches to the scoping, modelling and solution of decision problems.

The scope of EJDP is focussed on the connections between operational research and decision processes. Thus, for instance, EJDP welcomes submissions which (i) present relevant advances in problem structuring, decision analysis and multi-criteria decision aiding, (ii) address questions of process design, model validity and communication in connection with techniques like data mining, forecasting, optimization, simulation, and performance measurement or (iii) provide reflective accounts of decision processes that exemplify uses of operational research in application domains such as energy, engineering, environment, finance, health care and operations management. EJDP primarily publishes original research articles, but surveys and tutorials can be considered as well.

• Disseminates original research on the contribution of operational research to improved decision making processes

• Contains reflective analyses of applications where operational research has an impact on decision processes

In 2023, submissions of papers on how Operational Research can contribute decision processes for alleviating and mitigate the Big Challenges of today (Climate Change, Corona Crisis, Risk Analysis) are especially welcome.
