Information Systems for the Fashion and Apparel Industry brings together trends and developments in fashion information systems, industrial case-studies, and insights from an international team of authors. The fashion and apparel industry is fast-growing and highly influential. Computerized information systems are essential to support fashion business operations and recent developments in social media, mobile commerce models, radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies, and ERP systems are all driving innovative business measures in the industry.

After an introductory chapter outlining key decision points and information requirements in fast fashion supply chains, Part One focuses on the principles of fashion information systems, with chapters covering how decision making in the apparel supply chains can be improved through the use of fuzzy logic, RFID technologies, evolutionary optimization techniques, and artificial neural networks. Part Two then reviews the range of applications for information systems in the fashion and apparel industry to improve customer choice, aid design, implement intelligent forecasting and procurement systems, and manage inventory and returns.

Professor Tsan-Ming CHOI (Jason) is a management scientist, operations researcher and systems engineer. He is now Chair in Operations and Supply Chain Management, and Director of the Centre for Supply Chain Research at University of Liverpool Management School (ULMS). He has published extensively in leading journals in the fields of operations management, engineering management, logistics, and supply chain management. His recent research has been funded by many external funding bodies such as Research Grants Council (HK), University Grants Council (HK), M.O.E. (TW), and M.O.S.T. (TW). He is also serving the academic community as the Co-Editor-in-Chief of Transportation Research Part E: Logistics and Transportation Review, a Senior Editor of Production and Operations Management, and Decision Support Systems, a Department Editor of IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management, an Associate Editor of Decision Sciences, and IEEE TSMC-Systems, and an editorial board member of International Journal of Production Economics, International Journal of Production Research, and International Transactions in Operational Research. He is currently an external member of the engineering panel, Research Grants Council (HK) in which he helps handle reviews, give recommendations and monitor the progress of General Research Fund (GRF) proposals and funded projects. In two consecutive years under two different chief editors (2013 and 2014), he received the best associate editor awards of the IEEE SMC Society (USA). Over the past two decades, he served as an officer/exco member/secretary/treasurer of professional societies such as Production and Operations Management Society (HK), IEEE SMC Society (HK), and IEEE TEM Society (HK). Since 2020, he has been consistently ranked by p-ranking as a top 20 most productive researcher (in business and economics) in all related journal ranking lists in the world (including CABS). He is also listed as a Highly Cited Researcher by Clarivate (Web of Science) and a Top 2% scientist by Stanford University. Most recently, in February 2023, he received the JOM Ambassador Paper Award 2023 for his Journal of Operations Management paper on "green supply chain with quick response technology" published in 2020. Before joining ULMS, he taught at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) and National Taiwan University (NTU), altogether for over two decades. In particular, he was honoured as a Yushan Fellow Professor at NTU, a President’s Award Winning Professor at PolyU, and a distinguished alumnus of CUHK's Faculty of Engineering.
