BALTIMORE, MD, November 12, 2024 – New research in the INFORMS journal Manufacturing & Service Operations Management is guiding the development of more inclusive and efficient electricity markets. The work demonstrates how aggregating small-scale, distributed energy resources (DERs) like solar panels can effectively balance the power of large utility companies.
Global supply chains are undergoing an irrevocable shift. While material flows remain critical, they are only the most visible aspect of this transition. Beneath the surface, changes in information exchanges, financial reconfigurations, and human capital movements are posing far greater risks to the benefits of global trade. The US, China, and the rest the world must handle these changes with care and perspective.

Research in INFORMS journal Management Science indicates that publishers who tried to manipulate readers into buying paper books over eBooks, only managed to drive their eBooks sales down.
“How might we use artificial intelligence and big data to help scientists advance our understanding?” That understanding, presumably, would be used to accelerate the creation of the universal flu vaccine, a topic that is explored in a new editorial from INFORMS member Eva Lee.
As a study by researchers from the City University of Hong Kong, the Georgia Institute of Technology and Carnegie Mellon University, which has been published in the INFORMS journal Management Science, has shown, delaying the ebook's output does not have a positive impact on sales of the paper edition. In addition, it has a subsequent negative impact on e-book sales.
New research in the INFORMS journal Management Science found that delaying the sale of the e-version of a new book does not lead to increased print sales, and can result in significantly fewer e-book sales (a nearly 50 percent decrease) once the digital version is made available.
According to a study in the INFORMS journal Marketing Science, co-authored by Yanwen Wang of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Michael Lewis of Emory University in Atlanta and David A. Schweidel of Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., negative advertising is effective in influencing voters — but significantly more so when the attacking candidates themselves run the ads.
