International Journal of Management Science and Engineering Management (IJMSEM) is a peer-reviewed quarterly journal that provides an international forum for researchers and practitioners of management science and engineering management. The journal focuses on identifying problems in the field, and using innovative management theories and new management methods to provide solutions. IJMSEM is committed to providing a platform for researchers and practitioners of management science and engineering management to share experiences and communicate ideas. Articles published in IJMSEM contain fresh information and approaches. They provide key information that will contribute to new scientific inquiries and improve competency, efficiency, and productivity in the field. IJMSEM focuses on the following: 1. identifying Management Science problems in engineering; 2. using management theory and methods to solve above problems innovatively and effectively; 3. developing new management theory and method to the newly emerged management issues in engineering; IJMSEM prefers papers with practical background, clear problem description, understandable physical and mathematical model, physical model with practical significance and theoretical framework, operable algorithm and successful practical applications. IJMSEM also takes into account management papers of original contributions in one or several aspects of these elements.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
