Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation (TOMACS) for the period January 1, 2007 -- December 31, 2007:
:
# Papers submitted: 67
# Papers accepted: 21
# Papers rejected: 32
# Papers withdrawn: 0

As of March 4, 2007, there were 35 papers in review and 17 papers were being revised by the authors. As reported by Manuscript Central for the calendar year 2007, the average time from submission to the first editorial feedback was 75 days; and for all papers with a final decision during 2007, the average time from original submission to final decision was 59 days.
From the ACM TOMACS Editorial Scope and Charter: The ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation (TOMACS) provides a single archival source for the publication of high-quality research and developmental results in computer simulation. The subjects of emphasis are discrete event simulation, combined discrete and continuous simulation, as well as Monte Carlo methods. Papers in continuous simulation will also receive serious consideration if their contributions to modeling and simulation in general are substantial. For more information on TOMACS, visit
