application for MSEM interdisciplinary problems. The ICMSEM aims to be theprimary forum, where both academic researchers and practitioners can becomeinvolved in discussions on state-of-the-art MSEM research and development.

MSEM has displayed tremendous growth and expansion since its very beginning.Management science (MS) had a long history associated with universal andimpersonal management research disciplines. Scientific management, of course,owes its beginnings to the innovative ideas of Frederick Taylor and Henri Fayol, andtheir associates, who, at the turn of the twentieth century attempted to solve industryproblems through strict time monitoring, technical production methods, incentivewage payments, and rational factory organization based on efficiently structuredwork assignments [1, 5]. In the period following the Second World War, modernanalytical management methods brought business practice into a new era. Termssuch as Decision Theory, Operations Research, Systems Engineering, and IndustrialDynamics, which were practically unknown in the early 1950s are now as wellknown as Accounting or Finance [12]. As time passed, with societal, economic,organizational and cultural factors playing increasingly more important roles inmanagement practice, MS used mathematics information science, systems science,cybernetics, statistics and other theories and methods from natural science to developinnovative management and control system. The integration of these research areashas brought significant improvements to MS. Volume I of ICMSEM proceedingsfocuses mainly on Intelligent Systems, Computing Methodology, InformationTechnology and Decision Making Systems.

Literature Review

Literature reviews are useful in gaining insight into particular research fields andcan assist in revealing new research directions. In this section, we present a liter-ature review on Intelligent Systems, Computing Methodology, InformationTechnology and Decision Making System in the study for MSEM.

Intelligent SystemsFirst of all, with genetic algorithms and simulation as the key concepts, intelligentsystems (IS) are basis for all MSEM tools, as they provide the foundation for thediscussion of practical management problems. Wang and Fei [25] presented anoverview of the background, concepts, basic methods, major issues, and currentapplications of Parallel transportation Management Systems (PtMS). Zilberstein[26] surveyed the main control problems related to optimal management ofuncertainty and precision that arise when a system is composed of several anytimealgorithms. Work with newer types of intelligent systems and help functions foreveryday systems, such as word processors, often appeared to neglect the lessonslearned from the past. However, Gregor and Benbasat [10] attempted to rectify thissituation by drawing together a considerable body of work on the nature and use ofexplanations. Lin and Cheng’s [19] alternative method for using neural networkalgorithms has achieved satisfactory results for fast and precise harmonic detection

in noisy environments by providing only 1/2 cycle sampled values for distortedwaveforms to the neural network. Many scholars have studied intelligent systemsand have had achievements that have been applied across many different fields.

Computing MethodologyComputing methodology (CM) is the theoretical foundation for dealing withmanagement science and engineering management problems. In past studies, Luoand Shao [20] presented a hybrid soft computing modeling approach based onrough set theory and genetic algorithms (GA), the neurofuzzy system. To solve thecurse of the dimensionality problem in neurofuzzy systems, rough sets were used toobtain a reductive fuzzy rule set. Gross [11] characterized cooperative ambientintelligence, revisited existing methods, and discussed what constituted a novelhuman-centered computing methodology. Lee and Chiang [17] developed a noveldynamical trajectory based methodology for systematically computing multiplelocal optimal solutions for general nonlinear programming problems with discon-nected feasible components to satisfy nonlinear equality/inequality constraints. Theproposed methodology, which was deterministic in nature, exploited the trajectoriesof two different nonlinear dynamical systems to derive multiple local optimalsolutions. Cooper and Giuffrida [7] developed and illustrated a new knowledgediscovery algorithm tailored to the action requirements of management scienceapplications. This combination meant that a more complete array from the infor-mation cart could be used to develop tactical planning forecasts.

Information TechnologyInformation technology (IT) is an appropriate technical platform for the solving ofpractical management problems, and has been defined by the InformationTechnology Association of America as the study, design, development, imple-mentation, support or management of computer-based information systems, par-ticularly software applications and computer hardware. IT is playing an increasinglydominant role in modern society and, as a result, Information technology(IT) acceptance research has yielded many competing models, each with differentsets of acceptance determinants. Venkatesh et al. [24] reviewed user acceptanceliterature, discussed and empirically compared eight prominent models and theirextensions, formulated a unified model that integrated elements across the eightmodels, and empirically validated the unified model. Ash et al. [3] believed thatwith a heightened awareness of these issues, informaticians could educate, designsystems, implement, and conduct research in such a way that they might be able toavoid the unintended consequences of these subtle silent errors. Lewis et al. [18]developed a research note by building upon and extending prior research thatexamined the factors that influenced the key individual beliefs about technologyuse. It has been argued that people form their beliefs about their use of informationtechnologies from within the broad range of individual, institutional, and socialinfluences that interact with IT. Bhatt and Grover [6] contrasted traditional thinkingabout competitive advantage with a resource-based view and specifically arguedthat by demarcating specific types of capabilities, a better understanding of thesources of IT-based competitive advantage could be gained.

Decision Making SystemDecision making systems are computer-based information systems which supportknowledge management, decision making, and management reporting and assistmanagers in making decisions in highly uncertain and complex environments. As isknown, when making decisions, people weigh up individual opinions and combinethem through a thought process to come to a final informed decision. Olcer andOdabasi [21] proposed a new fuzzy multiple attribute decision making (FMADM)method which was suitable for multiple attributive group decision making(GDM) problems in a fuzzy environment to deal with the ranking and selecting animplemented Web-based consensus support system that was able to help or evenreplace the moderator in a consensus process in which experts are allowed toprovide preferences using one of many types (fuzzy, linguistic and multigranularlinguistic) of incomplete preference relations. In Fang’s study [9], a comprehensivedecision support system based on existing and new research developments in theconflict resolution graph model, the GMCR II, was developed for the systematicstudy of real-world interactive decision problems.

The Central Issues of Proceedings Volume I

Literature mining is indispensable in determining the most pertinent scientificresearch, especially in areas of particular interest such as geothermal utilization[23]. Literature mining has proven to be a powerful method for revealing majortrends in published scientific literature across the years to allow for topic maps to bebuilt [8]. NodeXL, a free analysis tool, was designed to facilitate the learning of theconcepts and methods of social network analysis using visualization as a keycomponent [13]. It is a powerful and easy-to-use interactive network visualizationtool that leverages the widely available Microsoft Excel application as a platformfor representing generic graphical data, performing advanced network analyses andproviding a visual exploration of the networks. NodeXL generally supports mul-tiple social network data providers who import graphical data (nodes and edge lists)into an Excel sheet, and has also been widely used by researchers [16, 22].NodeXL, therefore, plays a vital role in the analysis of keyword trends in ourresearch. A research documentation metasynthesis method is shown in Fig. 1.

This year, 140 papers were accepted, which were divided into two proceedingsvolumes of 70 papers each. To reveal the range of research topics in the acceptedpapers in proceedings Volume I, NodeXL was applied. The significance of key-words lies not only in the frequency or ratio but also in the keyword connections,which demonstrate how these papers revolve around the management science(MS) theme. The field of MS provides a set of concepts and metrics to systemat-ically study the relationships between the keywords. Information visualizationmethods have also been proven valuable in assisting us in discovering patterns,trends, clusters, and outliers, even in complex social networks. In other words,
