Digital Supply Chain Transformation toward Blockchain Integration

Digital supply chain integration is becoming increasingly dynamic. Access to customer demand needs to be shared effectively, and product and service deliveries must be tracked to provide visibility in the supply chain. Business process integration is based on standards and reference architectures, which should offer end-to-end integration of product data. Companies operating in supply chains es...

Towards an Ontology-Driven Blockchain Design for Supply Chain Provenance

An interesting research problem in our age of Big Data is that of determining provenance. Granular evaluation of provenance of physical goods--e.g. tracking ingredients of a pharmaceutical or demonstrating authenticity of luxury goods--has often not been possible with today's items that are produced and transported in complex, inter-organizational, often internationally-spanning supply chains. ...

Integrating Blockchain with ERP for a Transparent Supply Chain

Supply chain is complex today. Multi-echelon, highly disjointed, and geographically spread are some of the cornerstones of today’s supply chain. All these together with different governmental policies and human behavior make it almost impossible to probe incidents and trace events in case of supply chain disruptions. In effect, an end-to-end supply chain, from the most basic raw material to the...

An Optimization Model for Biofuel Supply Chain

Biofuels have attracted much attention as a sutuible substitute for fossil fuels in last decade. Designing an efficient supply chain is an essential requirement for commercialization of biofuel production. This paper presents a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model to design biofuel supply chains in which the biofuel demand is under ARMA time series models. It is studied how ARMA time s...
