Rezensionen

"This book is about the science of services. It has a collection of experiences from the last decade in Japan in service science. ... Readers with interests in applications of computing technologies will find many chapters useful. Each chapter can be read independently." (Maulik A. Dave, Computing Reviews, computingreviews.com, October, 2016)
