New Trends in Supply Chain and Operations Management

Abstract

Techniques used for Operations and Supply Chain Optimization have been adopted in many domains due to their tremendous success; the area of Pricing and Revenue Management is perhaps the best modern example for this. Other emerging applications of these techniques include, but are not limited to, Financial Engineering, Healthcare Management and Business Analytics. The introduction of eminent concepts in Behavioral Economics has taken contemporary supply chain management to a level that is essential for today’s business environment. These new trends in supply chain and operations management will be discussed in this keynote presentation.
