What the Editors say<br />
about IJIDS<br />
I view <strong>Information</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Decision</strong> Science as one of the<br />
most important topics in the global world where huge<br />
amounts of information needs to be filtered <strong>and</strong><br />
juxtaposed for any person or organisation to make the<br />
best decisions<br />
Hans-Henrik Hvolby, Professor in Supply Chain<br />
Integration, Aalborg University, Denmark<br />
Technology to collect <strong>and</strong> process information is<br />
following Moore’s Law. This needs to be coupled with<br />
sound tools <strong>and</strong> techniques for making decisions <strong>and</strong><br />
provide good “return on information”. IJIDS would<br />
serve as a leading forum across multiple disciplines<br />
around the world.<br />
Dr. Vittal Prabhu, Marcus Department of Industrial<br />
<strong>and</strong> Manufacturing Engineering, Penn State<br />
University, USA<br />
With the globalization of economic activities, the<br />
decisions of firms become more <strong>and</strong> more complex.<br />
A good decision means that a firm makes a fast <strong>and</strong><br />
accurate reaction to the changes of the environment,<br />
especially the changes of the competitors’ strategies.<br />
The development of the information technology<br />
provides an effective tool for the decision-making of<br />
firms. I believe that IJIDS can provide a good platform<br />
for exchanging the ideas on information <strong>and</strong><br />
decisions <strong>and</strong> will become a leading journal.<br />
Tiaojun Xiao, School of Management Science <strong>and</strong><br />
Engineering, Nanjing University, Nanjing China<br />
I am pleased <strong>and</strong> excited to be involved in the<br />
launching of the IJIDS. It is great to be part of a<br />
journal with such a wide, multidisciplinary <strong>and</strong> open<br />
perspective on how to best use <strong>and</strong> present<br />
knowledge from the masses of data we swim in<br />
nowadays.<br />
Professor Clive Morley, Academic Director,<br />
Graduate School of Business, RMIT University,<br />
Australia<br />
The availability of massive data is changing the way<br />
decisions are made in today's businesses. IJIDS<br />
covers both emerging <strong>and</strong> classical subjects in the<br />
area of information <strong>and</strong> decision sciences <strong>and</strong> it will<br />
be a forum that makes innovation in how decisions<br />
are made in today's <strong>and</strong> future business environment.<br />
