Excellent service plays a vital role in the sustainability of enterprise and supply chains development today’s increasingly fierce market competition. However, due to inevitable spillover effect competitive network, enterprises’ initiative improve level is reduced.

Substantial literature has been devoted to supply chain coordination. The majority of this literature ignores competition between supply chains. Moreover, a significant part of this literature focuses on coordination that induce the supply chain members to follow strategies that produce the equilibria chosen by a vertically integrated supply chain. This paper investigates the equilibrium behavi...

This paper adopts agent-based simulation to study the horizontal competition among homogenous price-setting retailers in a one-to-many supply chain (a supply chain consists of one supplier and multiple retailers). We model the supplier and retailers as agents, and design their behavioral rules respectively. The results show that although the agents learn individually based on their own experien...

In the manufacturing supply chain, there is a tripartite relationship between upstream suppliers, midstream enterprises and downstream customers. The chain environment changing from competition to cooperation. Based on perspective of study impact cash holdings business credit in Zhejiang Province conducive comprehensive review Province, enhance their competitive position chain. It found that ho...

We have previously shown that phenotypic allelic exclusion of TCR alpha-chain is functional only in mature thymocytes. A significant proportion of immature thymocytes (TCRlow) express more than one cell surface alpha-chain, but mature thymocytes (TCRhigh) show phenotypic allelic exclusion and express only a single alpha-chain. We have analyzed thymocytes for both surface and intracellular alpha...

In the logistics sector, price competition is no longer only form of horizontal between service integrators; instead, it frequently takes efficiency among chains. Facing fierce market competition, vertical resource integration gradually becomes trend in industry integration. Using inverse derivation method and comparative analysis, this study examines relationship overall profit its chain that ...
