About Computation
Aims
Computation (ISSN 2079-3197) is an international open access journal of computational science and engineering. It focuses on publishing regular research papers and reviews.
The aim of Computation is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the maximum length of the papers. Full experimental details should be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
There are, in addition, unique features of this journal:
- manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed
- computed data or files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material
- manuscripts concerning summaries and surveys on research cooperation and projects (that are founded by national governments or others) provide information for a broad field of users
Scope
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Computational biology:
- bioinformatics
- mathematical modeling, simulation and prediction of nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) and protein sequences, structure and functions

MDPI Publication Ethics Statement
MDPI is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
MDPI takes the responsibility to enforce a rigorous peer-review together with strict ethical policies and standards to ensure to add
high quality scientific works to the field of scholarly publication. Unfortunately, cases of plagiarism, data falsification, inappropriate
authorship credit, and the like, do arise. MDPI takes such publishing ethics issues very seriously and our editors are trained to proceed in
such cases with a zero tolerance policy. To verify the originality of content submitted to our journals, we use iThenticate to check submissions against previous publications.
