Aims and scope
Management Science Advances (MSA) publishes high quality scientific papers that contribute significantly to the fields of management sciences. The material published is of high quality and relevance, written in a manner which makes it accessible to all of this wide-ranging readership. Preference will be given to papers with management and decision making implications to the practice of management and engineering. MSA covers all aspects of decision making in sustainable development, risk management, supply chain management, sustainability and supply chain management, transportation networks and operations management.
Submissions should present the state of the art in specific fields or functions of management, while there are shorter critical assessments of particular management techniques. Preference will be given to papers with implications to the practice of management. Full experimental and methodical details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Submissions of purely theoretical papers are discouraged.
Contents include papers exploring the interactions of management techniques with other relevant disciplines such as decision making, artificial intelligence, soft computing and computer science. This is a unique feature of MSA compared to other existing management journals, providing a means to explore new directions in management research in a interdisciplinary context. Overview papers from eminent scientists in significant fields of management that review the state-of-the-art in these fields, are also welcome.
