OM Forum—Pandemics/Epidemics: Challenges and Opportunities for Operations Management Research
回顾了2019年底前发表在主要运营管理、运筹学和管理科学期刊上的大流行病/流行病研究论文,分类评估并指出研究空白和未来方向,包括从COVID-19中汲取的教训。
We reviewed research papers related to pandemics/epidemics (disease outbreaks of a global/regional scope) published in major operations management, operations research, and management science journals through the end of 2019. We evaluate and categorize these papers. We study research trends, explore research gaps, and provide directions for more efficient and effective research in the future. In addition, our recommendations include the lessons learned from the ongoing pandemic, COVID-19. We discuss papers in the following categories: (a) warning signals/surveillance, (b) disease propagation leading to pandemic conditions, (c) mitigation, (d) vaccines and therapeutics development, (e) resource management, (f) supply chain configuration, (g) decision support systems for managing pandemics/epidemics, and (h) risk assessment.
