Since 2004, has taught Operations Management and Supply Chain Management at Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy. Her main research interests include:
- Trust and opportunism in supply chain networks;
- Innovative incentive schemes for decentralized-control supply chains, including revenue sharing contract, advance booking discount program, profit transfer mechanisms.
- Forms of governance of supply chains;
- Modeling and control of inventory in supply chains using artificial intelligent techniques;
- Development of agent-based models to study innovation and learning processes in supply chains and industrial clusters
In these areas she has published more than 80 papers including international scientific journals and conference proceedings. Her studies are published on leading international journals such as International Journal of Production Economics, European Journal of Operational Research, International Journal of Logistics: Research & Application, Production Planning and Control, Emergence: Complexity and Organization, and Journal of Geographical Systems. She has also edited a book published by a national editor (Franco Angeli) on "Organizations and Complexity. Moving across order and chaos to cope with change". In 2007 Professor Giannoccaro chaired the track entitled "Towards a complexity science-based theory of geographical clusters" in the Sixth EURAM Conference.
Since 2004 she has been a component of the teaching staff of the PhD program "Advanced production Systems", at the Department of Mechanical and Business Engineering, Polytechnic of Bari and acts as an occasional referee of several international scientific journals, such as Journal of Operations Management, International Journal of Production Economics, European Journal of Operational Research, Computers & Industrial Engineering, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, Decision Support Systems, IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks, Journal of Artificial Society and Social Simulation, International Journal of Logistics Management: Research and Application.
