Preface
Services are not merely key economic activities, but also major factors that improve our
quality of life, make local communities prosperous, and then provide a foundation for solving
emerging issues. In an increasingly globalized market, it is necessary to increase the economic
value of products and services, as well as to enrich their value (life value) for every individual
citizen using those services. In addition, advanced technologies, including big data, IoT, AI,
and others, bring us possibilities to design smart service systems by solving emerging social
issues, such as an aging society and social security, and global challenges, such as energy and
environmental issues.
Traditionally, service-related research has developed in individual fields typified by management, marketing, information engineering, and design engineering. However, to provide
better services to our society, it is critical that social sciences, human sciences, and engineering sciences work together as well as establish a strong partnership between industry and
academia. There, we need to create an academic understanding of the activities that relate to
social and economic services, which means that it is necessary to establish an understanding of
the comprehensive services that include not only the narrowly defined services industry, but
also the development of services by manufacturers. Moreover, it is necessary to develop a
framework to co-create high customer satisfaction in alliance with customers.
The Society for Serviceology (SfS) was launched in Japan in October 2012 and has been
developed globally. SfS aims to contribute to efforts concerning various industrial issues by
organizing the vast knowledge of services and to establish “academics for society” relating to
services.
The Third International Conference on Serviceology (ICServ2015) was held July 7–9,
2015, in San Jose, CA, USA. The theme of this conference was “Engineering and Management
of Smart Service Systems — Cultural Factors in Customer Engagement”. It covered service
innovation and design, smart service systems, service marketing, human factors and service
engineering, and theoretical perspectives on service and social problems in services. The
conference was sponsored by Fujitsu, IBM, and The International Society of Service
Innovation Professionals (ISSIP). We would like to thank the members of the organizing
committee, the program committee, and all conference participants for their contribution to
the success of the conference.
