There are really no independent sources on this journal; plus, the company that publishes it, MDPI, has come under fire as a publisher of predatory journals (see this). Thus, the information about being "peer-reviewed" is almost certainly false, and demonstrates the unreliability of this article. Because of this, it should be deleted under our general notability criteria and our verifiability policy. RileyBugz^{私に叫ぼう}_私の編集 02:09, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't think our unsubstantiated opinions about the quality of review at this journal are worth much as a reason for deletion. (In my own case, I know nothing about its standards for peer review, but I am troubled by the fact that, although it occasionally publishes work by reputable researchers, the vast majority of the papers published in this journal are not on what I recognize as the design and analysis of algorithms.) But as the only real notability guideline for journal notability is WP:GNG (WP:NJournals is suggestive but not definitive), and no in-depth independently published sources are evident, we have no basis for keeping the article. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:49, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
