The Journal of Automata, Languages and Combinatorics(JALC) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal of computer science. It was established in 1965 as the Journal of Information Processing and Cybernetics (German: Elektronische Informationsverarbeitung und Kybernetik) and obtained its current title in 1996 with volume numbering reset to 1. The main focus of the journal is on automata theory, formal language theory, and combinatorics.
The editor-in-chief of the journal was, until 2015, Jürgen Dassow of the Otto von Guericke University of Magdeburg. From 2016, the editors in chief are Markus Holzer and Martin Kutrib, and the publication is handled by the Institute of Informatics at the University of Giessen.
Bibliographic databases indexing the journal include the ACM Guide to Computing Literature, [1] the Digital Bibliography & Library Project, [2] the MathSciNet database, and the Zentralblatt MATH.
According to Google Scholar, the following articles have been cited most often (≥ 100 times):
Theoretical computer science (TCS) is a subset of general computer science and mathematics that focuses on mathematical aspects of computer science such as the theory of computation, lambda calculus, and type theory.
Béla Bollobás FRS is a Hungarian-born British mathematician who has worked in various areas of mathematics, including functional analysis, combinatorics, graph theory, and percolation. He was strongly influenced by Paul Erdős since the age of 14.
Jeffrey Outlaw Shallit is a computer scientist, number theorist, and a noted critic of intelligent design. He is married to Anna Lubiw, also a computer scientist.
Mathematical Reviews is a journal published by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) that contains brief synopses, and in some cases evaluations, of many articles in mathematics, statistics, and theoretical computer science. The AMS also publishes an associated online bibliographic database called MathSciNet which contains an electronic version of Mathematical Reviews and additionally contains citation information for over 3.5 million items as of 2018.
Marcel-Paul "Marco" Schützenberger was a French mathematician and Doctor of Medicine. He worked in the fields of formal language, combinatorics, and information theory. In addition to his formal results in mathematics, he was "deeply involved in [a] struggle against the votaries of [neo-]Darwinism", a stance which has resulted in some mixed reactions from his peers and from critics of his stance on evolution. Several notable theorems and objects in mathematics as well as computer science bear his name. Paul Schützenberger was his great-grandfather.
Christos Charilaos Papadimitriou is a Greek theoretical computer scientist and the Donovan Family Professor of Computer Science at Columbia University.
Noga Alon is an Israeli mathematician and a professor of mathematics at Princeton University noted for his contributions to combinatorics and theoretical computer science, having authored hundreds of papers.
Jaroslav (Jarik) Nešetřil is a Czech mathematician, working at Charles University in Prague. His research areas include combinatorics, graph theory, algebra, posets, computer science.
Discrete Mathematics is a biweekly peer-reviewed scientific journal in the broad area of discrete mathematics, combinatorics, graph theory, and their applications. It was established in 1971 and is published by North-Holland Publishing Company. It publishes both short notes, full length contributions, as well as survey articles. In addition, the journal publishes a number of special issues each year dedicated to a particular topic. Although originally it published articles in French and German, it now allows only English language articles. The editor-in-chief is Douglas West.
Albert Ronald da Silva Meyer is Hitachi America Professor emeritus of computer science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Informatics is the study of computational systems. According to the ACM Europe Council and Informatics Europe, informatics is synonymous with computer science and computing as a profession, in which the central notion is transformation of information. In other countries, the term "informatics" is used with a different meaning in the context of library science, in which case it is synonymous with data storage and retrieval.
Information Services & Use is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering the area of information technology, especially information management and applications. It is peer-reviewed. Its current editors-in-chief are Arnoud De Kemp and Elliot R. Siegel. The journal was established in 1981 and is published by IOS Press.
Higher-Order and Symbolic Computation was a computer science journal published by Springer Science+Business Media. It focuses on programming concepts and abstractions and programming language theory. The final issue appeared in 2013.
International Journal of Geographical Information Science is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Taylor & Francis. The editor-in-chief is May Yuan, who succeeded Brian Lees ) in January 2017. The journal covers original research in fundamental and computational geographic information science, including applying geographical information science to monitoring, prediction, and decision making, as well as natural resources, social systems, computer science, cartography, surveying, geography, and engineering, in both developed and developing countries.
The Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Artificial Intelligence is a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Taylor and Francis. It covers all aspects of artificial intelligence and was established in 1989. The editor-in-chief is Eric Dietrich, the deputy editors-in-chief are Li Pheng Khoo and Antonio Lieto.
Ludwig Staiger is a German mathematician and computer scientist at the Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg.
