Use when targeting SIAM Review (SIAM Rev.) or deciding whether an applied- or computational-mathematics manuscript fits this expository, broad-readership SIAM venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, expository-and-rigor bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# SIAM Review (siam-review)
## Journal positioning
SIAM Review, published by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, is the flagship general-readership journal of the applied- and computational-mathematics community. Its defining character is expository excellence for a broad audience: it does not exist primarily to publish narrow primary results, but to survey, contextualize, and illuminate. The journal is organized into distinct sections — Survey and Review (authoritative surveys of active areas), Research Spotlights (accessible accounts of a focused new result), SIGEST (revised reprints of outstanding papers from specialized SIAM journals, made accessible to the wider community), and Education (material of pedagogical value). The common thread is that articles must be readable, significant, and valuable to applied mathematicians, scientists, and engineers well beyond the immediate specialty.
This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the SIAM Review site and confirm the requirements for the specific section you are targeting.
## When to trigger
- The author wants to write an authoritative survey or an accessible account of applied/computational mathematics for a broad readership.
- A focused new result has wide appeal and could be presented as a Research Spotlight rather than a specialized primary paper.
- The author has a topic of strong pedagogical value suited to the Education section, or is considering nominating/preparing a SIGEST reprint.
- The author needs to understand which SIAM Review section fits, the expository bar, and common rejection reasons before submission.
