This special issue is inspired by recent tracks and sessions of the International Congress on Logistics & Supply Chain, CILOG 2014 that was held in Mexico City, October 15-17th. However, other contributions are also welcome to be submitted. NETNOMICS is inviting high quality scientific papers for a feature issue on supply chain networks in emerging markets. We consider supply chain networks in their full generality, reflecting supply chain networks in their widest sense. Contributions are invited to this special issue of NETNOMICS which aims to provide state of the art contributions covering recent advances and emerging computational paradigms on designing and evaluating supply chain networks. Both theoretical and empirical studies are welcome. A non-exhaustive list of topical areas for this feature issue is as follows:
• Supply chain network economics issues and network design in emerging markets
• Pricing in supply chain networks
• Service integration of agents or players within the logistics industry
• Supply chain clustering design
• Identification of success drivers of supply chains in emerging markets
• Supply chain risk assessment applications
• Building secure and resilient supply chain networks
• Virtual supply chain models
• Mobile applications in transportation and logistics
• Game theory in supply chains
• Cloud computing in supply chains
  
Prospective authors are kindly requested to notify by an email, the guest-editors about their interest in submitting a paper. A fast reviewing process is guaranteed within less than 2 months and an expedited publication of the feature issue is made once the accepted papers are finalized.
