We review, classify, consolidate, and synthesize the contributions to the expanding field of e-business that have been published in Production and Operations Management. We classify e-business research in the following four categories: (1) e-auctions, (2) radio frequency identification, (3) e-business system design, and (4) competition, conflict, collaboration, and coordination (C^sup 4^ in e-business). We identify important research themes, research methodologies, and research techniques within each of these categories. We also provide directions for future research and discuss the managerial implications of the e-business research reported in our paper.

Research and publishing have become increasingly important in colleges of business nationwide. The importance of research and publishing is even more evident in schools which are accredited, or seeking initial accreditation, by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).

We examine the citations from four international business (IB) journals over 2000-2004 to show the areas, the journals, and the institutions that impact IB research. The leading works that influence IB research are primarily management journals, scholarly books, and IB journals. IB research is published in non-IB journals, as well and this has influenced the recent research in IB journals. U.S. and non-U.S. academic institutions and non-academic organizations are among the top 100 institutions that impact IB research, indicating that this research is a truly global endeavor. Finally, recent IB research is influenced more by recent published research than by past research. Scholarly books have become less influential, while the economics, finance, and marketing journals show no change in...
