John Collins, Maria Gini, Alok Gupta, and Paul Schrater together with Wolfgang Ketter of Erasmus University have received a 2012 INFORMS ISS Design Science Award for their work Design of Automated Agents Capable of Recognizing and Forecasting the Economic Environment. The purpose of the Design Science Award of the INFORMS Information Systems Society (ISS) is to promote and recognize research efforts centered on the design and realization of innovative information technology (IT) artifacts.
Judges for the award commented, "This work is outstanding. The authors have combined design science principles and economic theory to design and evaluate specific artifacts but also to develop “design theory” for software agents. The evaluation is well-conceived and convincing." The full annoucement can be found here.
