About the Journal
Statement of purpose
Computing in Geometry and Topology aims to support the broader computational geometry and topology community by being a peer-reviewed scientific journal that provides diamond open access. Computing in Geometry and Topology is sponsored by the Society for Computational Geometry.
With the broader computational geometry and topology community, we include researchers in discrete and combinatorial geometry, and any application area of computational geometry and topology. We also include algorithm engineering for geometric computations.
The journal publishes two types of papers. Firstly, the journal publishes original research of sufficient depth and interest. Secondly, the journal publishes high-quality survey papers. Every paper has been thoroughly reviewed by experts in the area.
To emphasize the breadth of the interpretation of computational geometry and topology, the editorial board has different sections that represent the algorithmic and mathematical aspects, the applied aspects, and the engineering aspects.
Open Access Policy
CGT publishes in the diamond open access model: CGT articles and supplementary data are freely available for download and CGT charges no publishing fees of any kind.
Authors who publish with this journal agree to the following terms:
Authors retain copyright and grant the journal right of first publication with the work simultaneously licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution License (v 4.0) that allows others to share the work with an acknowledgement of the work's authorship and initial publication in this journal.
Authors are able to enter into separate, additional contractual arrangements for the non-exclusive distribution of the journal's published version of the work (e.g., post it to an institutional repository or publish it in a book), with an acknowledgement of its initial publication in this journal.
Authors are permitted and encouraged to post their work online (e.g., in institutional repositories or on their website) prior to and during the submission process, as it can lead to productive exchanges, as well as earlier and greater citation of published work (See The Effect of Open Access).
All CGT issues and articles are assigned a DOI. The articles and data are also archived at the German national library.
Special Issues
CGT publishes special issues for selected contributions of established conferences and workshops of the field. The contributions are selected by the program committees of the respective conferences or workshops, and the PC chairs serve as guest editors to handle the review process. The review process and the criteria for acceptance are the same as for regular submissions to CGT.
