The Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences is pleased to announce a special issue on eService designed to capitalize on the rapidly growing work in service science and eCommerce originating from marketing, management information systems, management science, and computer science. Contributing papers should have a substantive focus on automated-delivered service or on combined automated/human-delivered service, and should have relevance to both academic researchers and service practitioners.
The topics may include but are not limited to:
- managing electronic and human service
- pricing
- auctions
- eService measurement
- decision support systems
- eService diffusion
- consumer loyalty and interface lock-in
- eShopping environments and virtual-reality technologies
- recommendation systems
- real-time personalization
- building one-to-one relationships
- impact on channel power
- overviews of current eService trends and case studies that have particularly broad implications.
Contributing papers may utilize empirical analyses, decision support systems, laboratory experiments, theoretical modeling, scale development applied to automated eService instruments, statistical analyses, field experiments, industry studies, and case-study field research.

Presenters at this conference will be invited to submit their work for consideration for publication in this CJAS special issue.
