Use when targeting INFORMS Journal on Computing (IJOC) or deciding whether an algorithms / optimization / computational-methods / ML-for-OR manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# INFORMS Journal on Computing (informs-journal-on-computing) ## Journal positioning The INFORMS Journal on Computing (IJOC) sits at the interface of operations research and computer science. It publishes work on the design, analysis, and implementation of algorithms and computational methods for OR and management science: exact and heuristic optimization, computational stochastic and simulation methods, and increasingly machine learning and analytics for OR. The distinguishing requirement is a *computational* contribution — a new algorithm, a substantial methodological advance, or rigorous, reproducible computational science — not just a model or an application. The readership is the computational OR/CS-interface community. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the INFORMS / IJOC site and the editorial submission system. ## When to trigger - The author names IJOC (or the OR/computing interface) as the target venue. - An algorithmic, optimization-computation, simulation-method, or ML-for-OR paper needs a computing-focused INFOR

What does the informs-journal-on-computing skill do?
Use when targeting INFORMS Journal on Computing (IJOC) or deciding whether an algorithms / optimization / computational-methods / ML-for-OR manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill informs-journal-on-computing --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
