Message from the Chairperson - Dr. Gregory Heim As we all make final travel and presentation preparations for the INFORMS Minneapolis meeting, I’d like to summarize a few recent developments that have taken place since the Spring issue of the Service Science Section’s newsletter. The past year has been a busy one, with a number of conferences and developments that have kept the leadership of the Section busy. This year’s Service Science Section cluster of presentations at INFORMS Minneapolis is sure to be the best ever, based on the total participation and number of presentation sessions. I’m sure that Chair-Elect Dr. Ming-Hui Huang will have much to say about the upcoming meeting in her message, so I will not say much here. Please note that one change from previous years concerns the Section’s business meeting, which will be held this year on Tuesday evening rather than Sunday evening of INFORMS Minneapolis. Our live Student Best Paper Award competition and the live sessions for the new Best Paper Award of the Service Science Cluster will also be held on Tuesday. The winners of these awards, and of our new Service Science Best Paper Award, will then be announced during the Service Science Section business meeting on Tuesday evening. Please make sure to look these sessions up in the Minneapolis INFORMS schedule. I’d like to thank IBM Research staff for again sponsoring our Student Best Paper Award as well as a PhD Student Colloquium/Luncheon on Monday of INFORMS Minneapolis. We will have over 30 PhD students attending this event, during which they will enjoy lunch and find out more about service science opportunities from several academics and practitioners in the field. Outside of the annual meeting, the Section-sponsored 2013 Frontiers in Service Conference, held from July 4-7 in Taipei, Taiwan, was a resounding success. I attended and enjoyed the experience greatly. As usual, Frontiers attracted many top-notch plenary speakers, a variety of emerging service research and service scholars, and great discussions and social events. Please make sure to look out for the upcoming paper submission and registration information on the 2014 Frontiers in Service Conference, which will be held in Miami. As part of our strategy to integrate efforts between the Section and our journal, several of us took the opportunity to promote the Section’s journal Service Science at a number of service conferences this summer. Christoph Breidbach and I promoted the journal by hounding attendees with fliers for the journal at QUIS2013 in Karlstad, Sweden and at the Frontiers conference in Taipei. I encourage you all to submit your own papers to Service Science. Please make sure to recommend to your colleagues to submit appropriate papers to Service Science as well. I want to remind all Section members that we need to make a conscious effort to improve the quality and quantity of submissions to Service Science, in order to ensure it will become the top service journal it has the potential to be.

3

Finally, as the membership of the Service Science Section continues to grow, we have reached a point where the Section’s leadership is in need of assistance from additional members who are interested in defining the field and making the Section grow further. I encourage you to become actively involved in contributing your ideas for improvement, and perhaps some volunteer time, to assist the Section. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to become more involved. Again, thank you for your continued membership in the Service Science Section. I’m looking forward to seeing and meeting everyone in Minneapolis!

Message from the Vice-Chairperson - Ming-Hui Huang In the previous newsletter, I highlighted that in the coming years during my terms as the vice-chair and the chair, my most important goal is to grow our Section into an INFORMS Society. I am happy to report that we have had our successful first few steps toward this goal this year. The first is the success of the 2013 Frontiers in Service Conference in Taipei in July. This conference is officially sponsored by our Section and the American Marketing Association (AMA). This year the conference had more than 250 attendees from more than 30 countries and one fourth of the attendees were registered as an INFORMS or AMA members. Next year the conference will be held in Miami, and there is currently a proposal to have our Section’s doctoral consortium held at the conference (as the AMA Service Sig has done annually) to take advantage of the conference’s strong attendance and interdisciplinary nature. The second is the unprecedentedly high submissions of our Service Science Cluster in the upcoming INFORMS annual meeting. Compared to the typical 20-25 sessions we had in the previous annual meetings, this year our Cluster sponsored 42 sessions, which included 127 presentations and 325 authors, exceeding even our current 268 Section members. All these numbers put our Cluster at the top of all INFORMS Clusters. This is a strong indication that our Section is well recognized by INFORMS members. IBM, our Section Chair, Gregory Heim, and I are all financially supporting our Cluster for various activities during this year’s upcoming annual INFORMS meeting to further consolidate our community. These include the Service Science PhD Colloquium/Luncheon, Best Student Paper Award, and Best Presentation Paper Award. For the business meeting, we have invited a Program Director from the National Science Foundation to give a talk on the newest NSF solicitation on service innovation research. Food and drinks will be offered for your enjoyment. Please come and join us. Below is the list of all the sessions sponsored by our Cluster with session chair information. Author information and presentation details are available on the annual meeting program. I would like to thank all invited session chairs for their effort in organizing the sessions and thank all authors for their contributions to our Cluster.

University of California launches new California Center for Service Science The University of California launched the new California Center for Service Science on September 13th 2013 at the inaugural Service Science Summit, which was held at the Rady School of Management at UC San Diego. Led by the School of Engineering at UC Merced and the Rady School of Management at UC San Diego, the new center aims to advance service science research and education, driving an engine of skill, innovation and job growth for California, the US, and the world. Paul Maglio, Professor of Technology Management at UC Merced, co-organizer of the Summit, explained, “the service sector remains understudied and the service workforce is undereducated in the state. With support from the University of California, our cross-campus center aligns with industry and government needs in the broad areas of knowledge-based and innovative service systems.” Thus, the Center aims to address the gap in California’s education and research landscape. Leading academics, practitioners, and others from the service research and practice community came together at the Service Science Summit to help develop the new Center's education and research agendas. With support from the UC, academia, and industry, the California Center for Service Science aims to be the thought leader in service science, fostering cross-disciplinary research and education on all topics related to service, with particular application to industries and topics relevant to California.

Service Science ABOUT THE JOURNAL INFORMS Service Science website: http://servsci.journal.informs.org/ INFORMS Service Science Manuscript Submission Web Site: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/serv

INFORMS PubsOnLine: http://www.informs.org/Sites/IPOL

Modern businesses rely on technology, communication, information, automation, and globalization. They operate in a complex web of suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders, creating value through collaboration and interaction with others by sharing skills and capabilities for mutual benefit. Modern businesses operate in the context of complex service systems. Service science is the emerging study of complex service systems. It involves methods and theories from a range of disciplines, including operations, industrial engineering, marketing, computer science, psychology, information systems, design, and more. In fact, it often requires more than the application of individual methods from any single discipline. Effective understanding of and innovation in service systems often require combining multiple methods to consider how interactions of people, technology, organizations, and information create value in various contexts and under various conditions.

Service Science publishes innovative and original papers on all topics related to service, with an emphasis on work that crosses traditional disciplinary boundaries to make sense of interactions that create value in complex service systems. It is the primary forum for presenting new theories and new empirical results in the emerging, interdisciplinary science of service, incorporating research, education, and practice. It documents empirical, modeling, and theoretical studies of complex service systems. Articles published in Service Science rely on approaches from a broad range of disciplines, including operations, engineering, marketing, design, and more, and often take a broad perspective by folding multiple methods and theories together and elaborating practical managerial implications. As a fully refereed, online journal, Service Science aims for fast-track publication: Manuscripts are typically reviewed within 6-8 weeks, and accepted papers, published within 3-5 months. Its target audience includes academics and practitioners from all areas of service research, education, and practice.

Readership

Service Science is a forum to help academics and practitioners (e.g., professors, researchers, professionals, business analysts, managers, policy makers) who work in the field of service science research, education, and practice quickly and effectively exchange their experiences and disseminate their new findings.

Contents
