Applications of Management Science is a blind refereed series that
is published on an annual basis. Its objective is to present
current studies in the application of management science to the
solution of significant managerial decision-making problems. It
significantly aids in the dissemination of the solution of
managerial decision-making problems with management science
methodologies. Volume 19 focuses on the application of management
science methodologies, data envelopment analysis and multi-criteria
decision making. The first section is focused on data envelopment
analysis. The second section focuses on multi-criteria decision
making. The third section focuses on decision making. This volume
will be of significant interested to those involved in the
applications of multi-criteria decision making, data envelopment
analysis and decision making, in a realistic managerial problem
solving environment through the use of state-of-the-art management
science modelling.
Applications of Management Science is a blind refereed refereed
series. Each annual volume presents current studies in the
application of management science to the solution of significant
managerial decision-making problems. Authors investigate solutions
to managerial decision-making problems using management science
methodologies. In this volume, the first section is focused on
multi-criteria decision applications, the second section on supply
chain management and finally authors look at productivity analysis.
Thus this volume will be of significant interest to those involved
in the applications of these methods, in a realistic managerial
problem solving environment through the use of state of the art
management science modeling.
The objective of this research annual is to present
state-of-the-art studies in the application of management science
to the solution of significant managerial decision making problems.
We hope that this research annual will significantly aid in the
dissemination of actual applications of management science in both
the public and private sectors. Topics will include: applied
management science studies in finance, management, operations,
supply chain and productivity. Applications of Management Science
is critical reading for those academics, researchers, and
practitioners of management science to the solution of significant
managerial decision making problems in both the public and the
private sectors.
"Applications of Management Science" is a blind refereed serial
publication published on an annual basis. The objective of this
research annual is to present state-of-the-art studies in the
application of management science to the solution of significant
managerial decision-making problems. It significantly aids the
dissemination of actual applications of management science in both
the public and the private sectors. Volume 14 is directed toward
the application of management science to multi-criteria decision
making, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and financial performance
analyses. This volume is arranged in three sections. The first
section focuses on multi-criteria decision making; the second focus
is on the application of DEA to public schools, paper mills,
nursing home quality, retailing, health care services, and
performance efficiencies in cities. The third section focuses on
multi-dimensional performance of a national stock market and the
effect of organizational structure on micro-financial institutions.
This volume will prove to be most valuable to those interested in
financial performance measurements, productivity measurement and
analysis, and management science, both as practitioners and
researchers.

application of management science to financial management,
specifically in portfolio analysis and in productivity management
such as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Arranged in two sections,
the first comprises a collection of financial applications papers,
while the second focuses on the use of DEA in such wide-ranging
environments as airport operations, freight railroads,
gynaecological departments, severe coastal storms, and performance
evaluation and classification of universities and public schools.
This volume will prove valuable to researchers and practitioners of
management science and operations research, as well as being a
vital companion to portfolio analysts and industrial and financial
engineers alike.
International Standards on Auditing (ISA) are standards or
guidelines that auditors follow when conducting a financial audit
of a companys financial statements in those jurisdictions that have
adopted ISAs or some version of ISAs. These standards are issued by
the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) through the
International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB). ISA
covers a wide variety of ground. It designates specific
responsibilities of an auditor including how to plan an audit; how
to evaluate and conclude on the adequacies of internal controls;
how to evaluate audit evidence and draw conclusions from it and how
to write an audit report. These are just some of the designated
responsibilities among a wide range of auditing requirements. The
USA, on the other hand, has its own auditing standards: the
so-called Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (GAAS) set forth by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for use in
private company audits; and the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (PCAOB), standards which apply to the audits of
publicly-owned corporations. The problem for both practitioners and
students is that the auditing principles of the ISA and the AICPA
are not identical, even though they are moving towards convergence,
or at least attempting to do so. That said, the standards of the
ISA and AICPA still differ; and this problem is compounded because
of the significant differences between the standards of ISA and
PCAOB. In fact a study commissioned by the European Community found
at least five areas where there are substantial differences. The
areas of substantive differences relate to: Assessing and reporting
on internal control Reference to the work of another auditor in a
group audit Documentation requirements Risk assessment and
responses to assessed risks. This is probably one of the most
significant differences. Going concern reporting. Under the PCAOB
the foreseeable future is limited to 12 months but under the ISA
the look forward feature has a different definition. Books have
been written on both the PCAOB and ISAs standards. In this proposed
book we plan to focus on the differences between the PCAOB and ISA
standards. We will cover in a clear and concise way the important
differences and similarities between them and provide check lists
of dos and donts. This should be of importance to upper level
undergraduate students of auditing and auditors in the US and
internationally. Key features (List any new features) 1. Reaction
to Corona Virus (Cov 19); discussion by PCAOB as to proposed
changes required in future auditing standards. 2. Editing of
existing standards by PCAOB causing divergence with IAASB 3. New
standards by PCAOB causing divergence with IAASB
Applications of Management Science, Volume 16 focuses on the
application of management science to multiple criteria decision
making, data envelopment analysis, and managerial applications.
Section A focuses on multiple criteria applications in college
course scheduling, offshore windfarms, services in a hospital,
portfolio optimization, and balancing a sequence dependent
disassembly line. Section B focuses on data envelopment analysis
applications of productivity in on-line stores, research libraries,
and advertising investment plans. Section C focuses on managerial
applications on the effects of aging on food consumption, costs of
renewable warrantees, pricing models with group buying, and the
improvement of patient flow. This volume will be valuable to those
interested in multiple criteria applications, data envelopment
analysis applications, and other managerial applications of
management science.

decision-making problems. Volume 15 examines management science
application to data envelopment analysis and efficiency, supply
chain and quality applications, and multi-criteria and financial
applications. Section A focuses on DEA to team performance, public
higher education systems, US airlines and Indian commercial banks.
Section B focuses on cooperative public service advertising, supply
chain strategies, optimal management of reverse supply chain and
optimal response to multi-response models. Section C explores
multi-criteria measures of public and private enterprises,
two-dimensional warranty policy decision making, and creating
teams. Section D focuses on financial applications, direct foreign
investments, conditional values of risk in portfolio models, and
asset allocations of mutual funds. This volume will be most
valuable to practitioners and researchers interested in
productivity analysis, supply chain systems, multi-criteria
applications and financial applications.
