This paper aims to address supply chain partners' incentives for information sharing from an information systems design perspective. Specifically, we consider a supply chain characterized by N geographically distributed retailers who order a homogeneous product from one manufacturer. Each retailer's demand risk consists of two parts: a systematic risk part that affects all retailers and an idio...

supply chain management is one of modern approach in the field of operation and production management. nowadays success and survival of manufacturing organizations depend on effectiveness and productivity of supply chains. this research tries to investigate contributing factor to enhance supply chain productivity. then by using fuzzy promethe-a multiple attribute decision making (madm) - tous a...

Additive manufacturing (AM) offers unique production characteristics which among those, toollessness and production of complex geometries are potentially significant to operations efficiency. Previous research has illustrated the potential sufficiency of this technology to affect the supply chains‟ arrangements and enabling decentralized production configurations. While, one of the important ad...

In recent years, the management issue in the Japanese automobile industry playing a key role in Japanese manufacturing is “worldwide uniform quality and simultaneous production launch,” in response to current globalization. In this corporate management environment, the “key to success in global production” is the reinforcement of product power, or the “simultaneous achievement of QCD.” In order...

After giving an overview over various conservation law models for supply networks, this talk will focus on level set approaches to modeling scheduling policies in supply chains. The starting point is a rather high dimensional kinetic model for a density of parts / particles with multidimensional attributes. After deriving hyperbolic conservation laws for the level sets of all parts with equal s...

in this paper, the competition between two supply chains and their elements is studied. each chain consisted of a manufacturer and a distributor and the two chains compete in a market with single type of customer sensitive to price and delivery time. therefore, this is a two-supply chain game and during the competition between two supply chains, elements of each supply chain (manufacturer and/o...

Managing income is a considerable dimension in supply chain management in current economic atmosphere. Real world situation makes it inevitable not to design or redesign supply chain. Redesign will take place as costs increase or new services for customers’ new demands should be provided. Pricing is an important fragment of Supply chain due to two reasons: first, represents revenue based ...

Supply chains are typically considered to consist of many stages across several organizations starting from raw material sources through component production to manufacturing and further on via distribution operations to B-to-B customers and consumers. This paper focuses on analyzing product-related characteristics: what the characteristics mentioned in the literature are, and the impact they h...

  Over the years we have witnessed the growing importance of supply chain operations and supply chain management (SCM), as supply chains play a major role in every step of the product life cycle. Therefore, this paper will DEA-based performance evaluation approaches for overall supply chain can be categorized. Future perspectives and challenges are discussed

strategic programming, complex supply chain, lean, production programming, suppliers selection,   electre this paper represents a model of strategic programming with limited resources in a complex supply chain. the main goal of the proposed model is to increase efficiency and effectiveness of the supply chain with respect to income increases and cost decreases. using special objective functions...
