KRM is now SCI-E, covered in Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCIE) including the Web of Science ISI Alerting Service Current Contents/Physical, Chemical & Earth Sciences (CC/PC&ES).

KRM publishes high quality papers of original research in the areas of kinetic equations spanning from mathematical theory to numerical analysis, simulations and modelling. It includes studies on models arising from physics, engineering, finance, biology, human and social sciences, together with their related fields such as fluid models, interacting particle systems and quantum systems. A more detailed indication of its scope is given by the subject interests of the members of the Board of Editors. Invited expository articles are also published from time to time.

KRM was launched in 2008 as a quarterly publication in March, June, September and December. It is edited by a group of energetic leaders to guarantee the journal's highest standard and closest link to the scientific communities. A unique feature of this journal is its streamlined review process and rapid publication. Authors are kept informed throughout the process through direct and personal communication between the authors and editors.
