摘要：The role of artificial intelligence (AI) in augmenting healthcare is expected to grow substantially in future decades. Current research in medical AI focuses on developing, validating, and implementing point-level AI applications in an ad hoc manner. To harness the full power of AI to improve the patient experience and outcomes at a societal scale, however, requires a gestalt shift-with a systematic understanding of AI in the context of healthcare-and so results in its widespread adoption. Thi...

摘要：As innovation is critical in driving growth and competitiveness, companies establish innovation (or new product) portfolio processes to select the right innovation projects that are allocated the necessary resources. These processes have attracted considerable interest from both academics and practice. However, the results of innovation portfolio management processes are widely perceived as unsatisfactory. This study provides a systematic overview of portfolio management approaches and researc...

摘要：Business platforms have become widespread in business to consumer (B2C) markets and their adoption is on the rise in the business to business (B2B) world. However, our understanding of platform adoption in B2B is less developed than for B2C. In the few cases where B2B platforms have been explicitly examined, it is often assumed that they can be understood using principles developed from the study of B2C platforms. However, the two types of platforms have important differences that often requir...

摘要：This study reviews the research on planning and scheduling in healthcare published in Production and Operations Management (POM) and other prestigious operations management journals over the past 30 years, identifies trending topics, and discusses opportunities for future research. Specifically, we categorize the capacity planning literature into three problem contexts: (a) hospital units and operating rooms, (b) outpatient clinics, and (c) broader healthcare networks. We further classify the ...

摘要：Distributing scarce resources such as COVID-19 vaccines is often a highly time-sensitive and mission-critical operation. Our research was prompted by a significant obstacle that the United States and other nations encountered during the early months of the COVID-19 vaccination campaign: Most COVID-19 vaccines require two doses given 3 or 4 weeks apart. Given the severely limited supply and mounting pressure on many countries to reduce hospitalizations and mortality, how to effectively roll out...

摘要：We study an inventory placement optimization problem where demand is sensitive to service response time, under the online retailing setting. The main challenge is to achieve the optimal trade-off between revenue benefits from shorter delivery time and the increase in inventory cost associated with placing inventory closer to market demand. To predict the effects of modified demand under service response time variations, we introduce a demand prediction and elasticity model to quantify the sens...

摘要：Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, additive manufacturing, advanced robotics, autonomous vehicles, and the Internet of Things are frequently mentioned as part of Industry 4.0. As such, how will they influence operations and supply chain management? We answer this question by providing a brief review of the evolution of technologies and operations management (OM) over time. Because terms such as Industry 4.0 do not have a precise definition, we focus on more fund...

摘要：Although entrepreneurship-related papers have had some representation in Production and Operations Management (POM) over the past 30 years, the topic still seems a bit like a poor stepchild in the research of operations management (OM) scholars. Yet, entrepreneurship is important to the economy, and many schools are growing significantly their entrepreneurship programs and offerings but often without reference to or inclusion of operations courses. This paper is motivated by the question of th...

摘要：Forecast uncertainty, typically measured quantitatively, raises questions of how best to communicate the forecast to a public with diverse numeracy skills. Here, we report an experiment examining how the numeracy of decision makers relates to the efficacy of forecast information provided in two alternative mechanisms to decision makers facing a loss event. The uncertainty mechanism states the probability of the loss event. The recommendation mechanism directly advises on which decision to take...

摘要：This paper focuses on the critical roles of knowledge workers when a firm pursues a major innovation project. In this context, we consider knowledge workers as those who contribute to a firm's performance at the executive, management, and technical specialist levels. Technical specialists include persons with advanced skills in engineering, analytics, statistics, science, and economics. By analyzing a series of case studies and personal interviews, we demonstrate that alignment (i.e., coordina...
