Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Consumer behavior and business management are rapidly evolving fields that are influenced by dynamic market conditions, digital transformation, and data-driven decision-making. Systems modeling and analysis provide powerful tools to understand these complexities, enabling researchers and practitioners to develop predictive models, optimize strategies, and enhance decision-making processes.
This Special Issue invites high-quality research on systems modeling and analysis applied to consumer behavior and business management. We welcome contributions that leverage computational models, simulation techniques, agent-based modeling, system dynamics, and machine learning to analyze market trends, consumer decision-making, and business strategies. Papers may explore topics such as demand forecasting, customer segmentation, behavioral economics, supply chain dynamics, and the impact of emerging technologies on consumer interactions.
By integrating interdisciplinary approaches, this Special Issue aims to provide valuable insights into how businesses can adapt to changing consumer preferences, improve operational efficiency, and drive innovation through system-based methodologies. We encourage both theoretical and empirical studies that contribute to a deeper understanding of the complex interactions between consumers and businesses in modern economies.
Research areas may include (but not limited to) the following:
- Systems modeling;
- Consumer behavior analysis;
- Business management;
- Agent-based modeling;
- System dynamics;
- Machine learning in business;
- Market simulation;
- Behavioral economics;
- Supply chain management;
- Decision-making systems.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
