The advent of internet-based technologies and social media has drastically affected how people communicate and share information. Electronic word-of-mouth (E-WOM) communication is one of those communication methods, and it has attracted the attention of scholars because of its effects on the consumer's decision-making process. However, there is a fragmentation of the E-WOM communication literature because of the broad range of platforms and different E-WOM formats. Therefore, the purpose of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the antecedents, motivations, and consequences of E-WOM communication for consumers in the digital economy.

Available Information

In software development projects, managers still have to face a variety of organisational and technical limitations despite the development of technology and approaches to improve the project management process. Projects, Human Resources and Costs are planned for a specific period of time. However, in the progression of project execution, there is a need to make various decisions and to dynamically adjust the work plan during the project in order to conform to its evolution. Thus, there is a need for a method that employs the latest technology to support the project management decision-making process. The aim and the expected result of the article are to identify and collect available information in the scientific literature to answer the following questions: (1) Which challenges of project management have been addressed using genetic algorithms? (2) What are the opportunities and limitations of genetic algorithms in the project management decision-making process? (3) What are the potential solutions to the identified genetic algorithm problems?
