Abstract:

Catering to the growing community of scholars and practitioners who research information systems (IS) with system dynamics (SD), this article sketches IS research with SD as a genuinely transdisciplinary area that studies the design, implementation, management and effects of IS on people, organizations and markets. A preamble to a fascinating collection of five applied‐research contributions to this System Dynamics Review (SDR) special issue, the article charts IS research and places these contributions in their proper context of IS research with SD. The article outlines criteria and themes for future high‐quality IS research with SD, emphasizing the value of the SD modeling process for IS research. By integrating IS research with SD, this special issue might serve well as a prototype for future SDR special issues, which will further integrate SD with research and practice in other social sciences, and thereby help identify new, exciting opportunities for future research.
