Acknowledgment

We are indebted to Chris Tang, the Series Editor of the Springer Series in Supply Chain Management, for his enthusiastic support of this project. This volume would not exist without the efforts of the wonderful authors who contributed with their chapters. We thank all of them for their excellent contributions and for their collaboration in this project. The Tuck School of Business provided funding to host a workshop on omnichannel operations that allowed authors to present preliminary versions of their chapters. During the development of the volume, both of the volume editors have changed institutions. When we started the project, we were at the Tuck School of Business and the Kellogg School of Management, respectively, and when this book is seeing the light, we are at The Wharton School and Harvard Business School. We appreciate all four inst
