COSTA MELO Isotilia
Dr. Isotilia Costa Melo has a master’s in Economics, Organizations, and Knowledge Management, a Ph.D. in Operation Process and Management, and an MBA in Digital Business. The three Graduations are from the University of SĂŁo Paulo (Brazil, 2017 – 2022). During her master’s, she applied Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to measure the performance of international supply chains (SCs) for agricultural products for human feed and biomass for energy generation, which resulted in publications in environmental and transportation journals such as the Journal of Cleaner Production, Transportation Research Economics, and journals focused on agriculture. During her Doctorate, she did a split-site research internship at the University of Sherbrooke (Canada, 2019-2020). Her thesis focused on measuring the performance of digital SCs, through dynamic DEA models. This resulted in a publication in e-commerce journals such as the Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce and journals focused on operations research. She worked at the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez and at the Universidad CatĂłlica del Norte (Chile, 2021-2023), where she focused her research on measuring the performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) passing through digital transformation. She is currently applying DEA integrated with other methodologies to develop methods for assessing the impacts SCs’ digitalization on the three pillars of sustainability, measuring the sustainability of astronomical observatories, agricultural plantations, cargo transportation, and SMEs, assessing the impacts of new policies in green energy generation, and identifying greenwashing. In terms of applications, her main interests are measuring performance and assessing sustainability in several fields, especially SCs, cargo transportation, digital transformation, SMEs, agriculture, and green energy.
