Abstract
Born during the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain viability theory and practice are getting increasingly important in the post-COVID era. This era is characterized by new and unprecedented challenges to supply chain and operations management triggered by highly volatile demand, supply, and capacities. Examples include long-term political and economic crises and long-term shortages of critical components (e.g., semiconductors). Papers in this Special Issue represent the most recent research on supply chain viability stemming from the fields of mathematical optimization under epistemic (known-unknown) and deep (unknown-unknown) uncertainty, network theory, game theory, complex adaptive systems, control theory, digital technology, and data-driven analytics. This Special Issue is an important milestone for the future development of supply chain viability knowledge.
期刊介绍:
Omega reports on developments in management, including the latest research results and applications. Original contributions and review articles describe the state of the art in specific fields or functions of management, while there are shorter critical assessments of particular management techniques. Other features of the journal are the "Memoranda" section for short communications and "Feedback", a correspondence column. Omega is both stimulating reading and an important source for practising managers, specialists in management services, operational research workers and management scientists, management consultants, academics, students and research personnel throughout the world. The material published is of high quality and relevance, written in a manner which makes it accessible to all of this wide-ranging readership. Preference will be given to papers with implications to the practice of management. Submissions of purely theoretical papers are discouraged. The review of material for publication in the journal reflects this aim.
