Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science
(DMTCS) is a non-profit organization governed by the French law
of 1901. It is only concerned with the management and distribution
of DMTCS.
sponsoring
DMTCS is offered the web services for the primary web server
by the LORIA
and INRIA and the
mirror sites by EMIS. We are very grateful for
this sponsoring and like to encourage other public institutions to
help us and similar projects in the scientific community.
financing
At the moment, DMTCS is a money free zone. This has the
advantage of making administration easier but at some point
soon it might be useful to have some money for paying someone doing the final
layout and such things.
One idea to have some inflow of money would be by selling a printed
version of the journal. But we clearly lack competence and
interest of
doing this ourselves. Please, don't hesitate to contact us if you have
ideas about that.
work
All work for the journal is done by volunteers. This
concerns several different types of work and really a lot of people
after all:
editors
referees
webmasters
LaTeXnicians
history
The journal DMTCS was founded 1997 by an initiative of some friends and colleagues guided
by the first editor in chief of the journal,
Daniel Krob.
After an initial tentative with a commercial editing house DMTCS was
run by the MIMD. MIMD passed the
journal over to the association DMTCS on April 14, 2002.
heads
The association is managed by people from the editorial
board. Its president is the current editor in chief, Jens Gustedt.
