BAREKENG : Jurnal Ilmu Matematika dan Terapan (BAREKENG : Journal of Mathematics and Its Applications),  is one of the scientific publication media, which publish the article related to the result of research or study in the field of Pure Mathematics (analysis, algebra & number theory), Applied Mathematics (Fuzzy, Artificial Neural networks, Mathematics Modeling & Simulation, Control & Optimization, Ethno-mathematics, etc.), Statistics, Actuarial Science, Logic, Geometry & Topology, Numerical Analysis, Mathematics Computation, and Mathematics Education. BAREKENG : Jurnal Ilmu Matematika dan Terapan (BAREKENG : Journal of Mathematics and Its Applications), is published by Pattimura University (link website) in Collaboration with the Indonesian Mathematical Society (IndoMS) (link website).

The meaning word "BAREKENG" is one of the words from the Moluccas language which means "Counting" or "Calculating". Counting is one of the main and fundamental activities in the field of Mathematics. Therefore we tried to promote the word "Barekeng" as the name of our scientific journal and also to promote the culture of the Maluku Area.
