This work portrays the recognition that the financial services industry is undergoing an ever-increasing rate of change, and that management tools for dealing with this change are not current. It is driven by the twin revolutions of disintermediation and deregulation and combined with technology to form a competitive force within the industry. Recognizing the need for a multi-disciplinary approach to the problem, the editors of this work have called upon colleagues at academic and business institutions to fashion a resource for those who wish to understand the challenges that lie ahead. Whether they write about distribution, regulation, consolidation or diversification, the authors provide a description of the problems and an analysis of potential solutions. Chapters identify sources of value-added for end-users, skews in customer profitability and the increase in consumer price sensitivity that will make profitability in financial services more difficult to attain. As technology improves, customers will have the ability to choose from an assortment of specialized providers to write cheques, make deposits, transfer money, get cash, and pay bills via the Internet.Providers will have to innovate or face a competitive climate of commodity pricing. It will likely result in pressures on firm profits and employee earnings, while providing favourable opts for customers.

Creating Value in Financial Services is a compilation of state-of-the-art views of leading academics and practitioners on how financial service firms can succeed in today's competitive environment. The book is based on two conferences held at New York University: the first, `Creating Value in Financial Services', held in March 1997, and the second, `Operations and Productivity in Financial Services', in April 1998. The book is essentially designed to be a compendium of leading edge thinking and practice in the management of financial services firms. There is no book today that has this focus. It contains ideas that can apply to other service industries. Topics addressed are increasingly important worldwide as the financial services industries consolidate and search for innovative new directions and ways to create value in a fiercely competitive environment.

This new edition of the well established text Scheduling - Theory, Algorithms, and Systems provides an up-to-date coverage of important theoretical models in the scheduling literature as well as significant scheduling problems that occur in the real world. It again includes supplementary material in the form of slide-shows from industry and movies that show implementations of scheduling systems. The main structure of the book as per previous edition consists of three parts. The first part focuses on deterministic scheduling and the related combinatorial problems. The second part covers probabilistic scheduling models; in this part it is assumed that processing times and other problem data are random and not known in advance. The third part deals with scheduling in practice; it covers heuristics that are popular with practitioners and discusses system design and implementation issues. All three parts of this new edition have been revamped and streamlined. The references have been made completely up-to-date. Theoreticians and practitioners alike will find this book of interest. Graduate students in operations management, operations research, industrial engineering, and computer science will find the book an accessible and invaluable resource. Scheduling - Theory, Algorithms, and Systems will serve as an essential reference for professionals working on scheduling problems in manufacturing, services, and other environments. Reviews of third edition:This well-established text covers both the theory and practice of scheduling. The book begins with motivating examples and the penultimate chapter discusses some commercial scheduling systems and examples of their implementations." (Mathematical Reviews, 2009)
