Networks & Spatial Economics

Journal Title：Networks & Spatial Economics

Networks and Spatial Economics (NETS) is devoted to the mathematical and numerical study of economic activities facilitated by human infrastructure, broadly defined to include technologies pertinent to information, telecommunications, the Internet, transportation, energy storage and transmission, and water resources. Because the spatial organization of infrastructure most generally takes the form of networks, the journal encourages submissions that employ a network perspective. However, non-network continuum models are also recognized as an important tradition that has provided great insight into spatial economic phenomena; consequently, the journal welcomes with equal enthusiasm submissions based on continuum models.

The journal welcomes the full spectrum of high quality work in networks and spatial economics including theoretical studies, case studies and algorithmic investigations, as well as manuscripts that combine these aspects. Although not devoted exclusively to theoretical studies, the journal is "theory-friendly". That is, well thought out theoretical analyses of important network and spatial economic problems will be considered without bias even if they do not include case studies or numerical examples.

网络和空间经济学 (NETS) 致力于对人类基础设施促进的经济活动进行数学和数值研究，其广义定义包括与信息、电信、互联网、交通、能源储存和传输以及水资源相关的技术.由于基础设施的空间组织通常采用网络的形式，该期刊鼓励采用网络视角的投稿。然而，非网络连续统模型也被认为是对空间经济现象提供深刻洞察的重要传统。因此，该期刊以同样的热情欢迎基于连续统模型的投稿。

该杂志欢迎网络和空间经济学领域的全方位高质量工作，包括理论研究、案例研究和算法研究，以及结合这些方面的手稿。尽管不只专注于理论研究，该杂志是“理论友好的”。也就是说，即使不包括案例研究或数值示例，对重要网络和空间经济问题的深思熟虑的理论分析也将不带偏见地予以考虑。

Networks & Spatial Economics创刊于2001年，由SPRINGER出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖社会科学 - 运筹学与管理科学全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度>12周，或约稿，影响因子指数2.379，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
