網(wǎng)絡(luò)問(wèn)題在我們現(xiàn)代科技社會(huì)中無(wú)處不在，我們對(duì)提供電力、通信和交通的物理網(wǎng)絡(luò)的依賴就是明證。此外，可以使用邏輯網(wǎng)絡(luò)對(duì)許多過(guò)程建模，例如在相互依賴任務(wù)的調(diào)度、考古文物的年代測(cè)定或包含大型計(jì)算機(jī)程序的子例程的編譯中。網(wǎng)絡(luò)為提出和研究問(wèn)題提供了一個(gè)共同的框架，而這些問(wèn)題往往比它們最初的背景具有更廣泛的適用性。這本雜志的目的是提供一個(gè)中心論壇，及時(shí)發(fā)布有關(guān)網(wǎng)絡(luò)問(wèn)題的信息，它們的設(shè)計(jì)和數(shù)學(xué)分析，以及對(duì)網(wǎng)絡(luò)進(jìn)行優(yōu)化的有效算法。使用網(wǎng)絡(luò)和網(wǎng)絡(luò)概念對(duì)不同流程進(jìn)行非標(biāo)準(zhǔn)建模也很有意義。因此，對(duì)研究網(wǎng)絡(luò)有用的學(xué)科是多種多樣的，包括應(yīng)用數(shù)學(xué)、運(yùn)籌學(xué)、計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)、離散數(shù)學(xué)和經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)。網(wǎng)絡(luò)出版關(guān)于使用網(wǎng)絡(luò)建立問(wèn)題模型、分析網(wǎng)絡(luò)問(wèn)題、設(shè)計(jì)計(jì)算效率高的網(wǎng)絡(luò)算法和成功網(wǎng)絡(luò)應(yīng)用的創(chuàng)新案例研究的材料。由于本雜志的讀者必然廣泛，因此影響多個(gè)應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域或創(chuàng)造性地使用新方法或現(xiàn)有方法的文章尤其合適。我們力求發(fā)表原創(chuàng)的、文筆優(yōu)美的研究論文，為知識(shí)庫(kù)做出實(shí)質(zhì)性貢獻(xiàn)。此外，指南和調(diào)查文章是受歡迎的。所有手稿都經(jīng)過(guò)仔細(xì)審閱。

英文簡(jiǎn)介

Network problems are pervasive in our modern technological society, as witnessed by our reliance on physical networks that provide power, communication, and transportation. As well, a number of processes can be modeled using logical networks, as in the scheduling of interdependent tasks, the dating of archaeological artifacts, or the compilation of subroutines comprising a large computer program. Networks provide a common framework for posing and studying problems that often have wider applicability than their originating context.The goal of this journal is to provide a central forum for the distribution of timely information about network problems, their design and mathematical analysis, as well as efficient algorithms for carrying out optimization on networks. The nonstandard modeling of diverse processes using networks and network concepts is also of interest. Consequently, the disciplines that are useful in studying networks are varied, including applied mathematics, operations research, computer science, discrete mathematics, and economics.Networks publishes material on the modeling of problems using networks, the analysis of network problems, the design of computationally efficient network algorithms, and innovative case studies of successful network applications. Since the audience for this journal is then necessarily broad, articles that impact multiple application areas or that creatively use new or existing methodologies are especially appropriate. We seek to publish original, well-written research papers that make a substantive contribution to the knowledge base. In addition, tutorial and survey articles are welcomed. All manuscripts are carefully refereed.
