Abstract
This talk focuses on the history, current state, and future projections of Operations Research and Management Science (OR-MS) journals. Using JORS, the first OR journal in the world, as an example, we present the evaluation methods for these OR-MS journals based on major data base such as Web of Science and Scimago Journal Ranking and previous studies. The main objective of this study is to identify some of the high impact/quality journals in OR-MS and related field for young researchers to select targeted publication outlets based on the issues and methodology of their research.
