Electronic Commerce Research and Applications

电子商务研究与应用旨在为瞬息万变的电子商务环境创造和传播持久的知识。电子商务研究的一个主要困境是如何在货币和知识的生命周期之间取得平衡。电子商务的研究和应用将有助于建立一个研究社区，为电子商务的发展创造知识、技术、理论和应用。这是针对技术潜力和商业目标的交集。电子商务是一个多学科的领域，应与现有的信息系统和技术等领域合作发展;市场营销、财务及供应链管理;经营策略与管理;公共政策;计算机科学与电信;和法律研究。我们将从这些领域征集关于当前技术的论文，并发表关于全新主题的论文。此外，我们亦会就电子贸易的新课题，就专题发表意见，为研究提供新方向。

Electronic Commerce Research and Applications aims to create and disseminate enduring knowledge for the fast-changing e-commerce environment. A major dilemma in e-commerce research is how to achieve a balance between the currency and the life span of knowledge.Electronic Commerce Research and Applications will contribute to the establishment of a research community to create the knowledge, technology, theory, and applications for the development of electronic commerce. This is targeted at the intersection of technological potential and business aims.E-commerce is a multi-disciplinary area, which should be developed in co-operation with existing fields such as Information Systems and Technology; Marketing, Finance and Supply Chain Management; Business Strategy and Management; Public Policy; Computer Science and Telecommunications; and Legal Studies. We will solicit papers on current technologies from these areas, as well as publish papers on completely new topics. We also seek proposals for special issues on new topics in e-commerce that will create new directions for research.
