“…A challenge for OM research, voiced by numerous industry leaders, is the development of the fundamental science that describes this new business methodology. (Lee and Amaral 2002;Martin 2003;Abu-Suleiman, Boardman, and Priest 2005). They have asked OM researchers to investigate the enabling technologies, resulting processes, and organizational behavior ramifications to all parties within the extended value chain.…”

W e review and discuss the evolution of interdisciplinary and interorganizational research in operations management and suggest directions for future investigations. The proposed operations management research focus is one that embraces a more holistic view of an "extended enterprise" which involves working with a new business model-the organization as a network. This methodology starts by treating the organization as a system that is enabled by information technology and is characterized by ubiquitous information sharing across traditional enterprise. Proper integration of technology, business processes and people factors needs to be developed to create higher value from networked enterprises. Operations management research future lies in establishing this science from an interdisciplinary perspective. We analyze this perspective in the context of papers published in the first 50 issues of Production and Operations Management and the related literature. The Roles of Marketing and Operations in Productand Service Design. POM has published several papers in the areas of product and service operations design. This set of papers deals with the issues at the interface between marketing and operations. They break new ground and show substantial departure from the conventional wisdom on the value proposition and provide directions to better bridge the two functional areas. We highlight some of these areas. Product Design The Role of Changes in Product Attributes and Costs in New Product Diffusion and Substitution:A Departure from the Marketing Literature.

“…In the study of Shafaei and Brunn (1999b), CR was the second best rule for a cost-based performance considering tardiness and holding costs. Abu-Suleiman et al (2005) developed a parameterized CR rule, which was shown to outperform EDD and SPT on several due date-based objectives. The CR rule was also utilized for scheduling in the semiconductor wafer fabrication facility, which can be seen as a complex job shop, in Rose (2002).…”
