Service sciences, management and engineering (SSME) is a multi-disciplinary growing research area by merging methodologies and techniques in computer science, operations research, management science, and social sciences. The evolution of information and technology (IT) also stimulate many researchers to look at this new research field. Among them, agent-based modeling is expected to play a key role as the methodological foundation. This special session on agent-based approach in service sciences will provide a common forum for researchers and practitioners in many disciplines who are interested in SSME, to exchange their ideas and report their latest findings.
Topics include (but are not limited to):
Paper submission: August 10, 2007 Acceptance notification: August 31, 2007 Camera-ready deadline: September 30, 2007
Papers should be submitted on-line and will peer-reviewed by the special session organizers and the IDEAL Program Committee members.
