Overview
Applied Network Science (ANS) is an open-access and strictly peer-reviewed journal giving researchers and practitioners in the field the ability to reach a larger audience. ANS encompasses all established and emerging fields that have been or can be shown to benefit from quantitative network-based modeling. Contributions from all fields of science, technology, medicine and humanities will be considered, in particular from newly emerging research areas formed and developing at the interfaces of presently established sub-disciplines. The focus of the journal is based on novel or anticipated applications of network sciences, on related techniques that may be used in applications of complex network methodologies, and on innovative modeling approaches that will enhance specific applications and lead to more widespread use of network science concepts. Overall, articles that have a direct application to real world problems form the core publications of this journal.

The Impact Factor (IF) is a metric that reflects the yearly average number of citations to recent articles published in a journal.
Impact Factor = Total citations in the current year to articles published in the previous two years / Total number of articles published in the previous two years
This metric, provided by databases like Scopus and Clarivate Analytics, helps researchers identify influential journals in their field.
H-index
The H-index of this journal is27

What is H-index?
The H-index is a metric used to measure the productivity and citation impact of a researcher or journal. It is defined as the maximum value of h such that the entity has published h papers that have each been cited at least h times.
Formula: Identify the largest number h where at least h publications have received at least h citations.
The H-index provides a balanced measure of both the quantity (number of publications) and quality (citations) of the output.
SJR
The SJR value of this journal is0.526

What is SJR?
The Scimago Journal Rank (SJR) is a prestige metric that ranks journals based on their scientific influence and the quality of citations they receive. It is developed from the information in the Scopus database.
SJR is calculated based on the weighted citations received in a given year. The weights are determined by the prestige of the citing journal.
SJR takes into account both the number of citations and the importance of the citing journals, offering a balanced perspective on the scientific impact of a journal.
