Search of Annual Comprehensive Index Bibliographic Database


IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ!!

The ACI bibliographic database is no longer supported by INFORMS.  A comprehensive and up-to-date database is maintained by  International Abstracts in Operations Research (IAOR) and all INFORMS members are entitled to access IAOR Online at no additional cost. To freely access this database please use our gateway page at http://pubsonline.informs.org; click on the International Abstracts in OR button on this page for instructions.

Please note that the ACI database has not been updated since 2001.  Although the IAOR database is far more comprehensive and complete we are leaving this page on-line as a service to our members since there might be some older records here that are not in the IAOR database.

 



Acknowledgment:  The records for the Annual Comprehensive Index Bibliographic Database are contributed by IFORS, publisher of International Abstracts in Operations Research.  Currently, the database has approximately 38,818 bibliographic entries.  The entries for the period 1976 to 1987 come from INFORMS journals, while for the period 1988 to 2001 they come from a total of approximately 663 different INFORMS as well as non-INFORMS journals. You can search this database using the form below. For your reference, there is also a List of Keywords and list of IAOR Classification Numbers.

Additional information is available about doing a search, including things such as the use of Boolean operators, wildcards, grouped strings etc.  Please also refer to the Notes section below.

NOTES:

  1. Checking AND will return all records which match all of the fields above (author, title, keywords etc.) that are specified, while checking OR will return all records which match at least one of the fields that are specified.
  2. The ACI database is based upon information obtained from IAOR, which in turn obtains its information on a voluntary basis from a number of different journals.  While every attempt is made to obtain all possible data, the information in the database nevertheless has gaps and is thus not necessarily comprehensive.  We are in the process of identifying these gaps and updating entries for each of the INFORMS publications, so that at least with respect to these journals the database will be guaranteed to be comprehensive.
  3. INFORMS does not currently maintain any abstracts or copies of papers.  If you would like to get more information on a specific paper, your options are to (1) try and find the appropriate journal in a library, (2) write to the publisher of the journal, or (3) contact the authors directly for more information - since many of the authors are likely to be INFORMS members, you might want to search the Membership Database for more information about contacting them.
