Management Science—2014 Best Paper Awards
As in 2013, the Information Systems Society and the Manufacturing and Service Operations Management Society presented awards to the papers that contributed the most to theory and practice in their respective fields. The editorial board of Management Science selected finalists from among nominated papers published in the 2011–2013 volumes of this journal. Members of each society then voted to select the winning papers.
We are honored that these papers appeared in the pages of our journal, and we congratulate each of the authors and thank them for their invaluable contributions to scholarship in our fields.
