The improvement of product quality and service level has led the increment of customer expectation. For price, innovation, and speed issues, leading manufacturers should search for well-behaved partners to form a powerful supply chain. To improve the efficiency of supply chain execution, reducing supply tiers and demand echelons seems to be a right direction. Therefore, for generic products, di...

With the complex and changeable environment, demand yield in perishable products supply chain are usually uncertain. This paper studies a joint contract that combines revenue sharing with quantity discount to coordinate under uncertainty, which consists of one manufacturer retailer. The retailer pays down payment at beginning, gives shares proportion profit from last. To make sure both members ...

We have calculated inclusive two-jet cross sections in next-to-leading order QCD for direct photoproduction in low Q2 ep collisions at HERA. Infrared and collinear singularities in real and virtual contributions are cancelled with the phase space slicing method. Analytical formulas for the different contributions giving the dependence on the slicing parameter are presented. Various oneand two-j...

Abstract: Based on two substitute products, we study the inventory and contract coordination strategy of a three-echelon supply chain, which consists of two suppliers, a manufacturer and a retailer, under supply disruption and stochastic demand. We investigate the channel gross profit model of the centralized supply chain and obtain a unique optimal order quantity. Under a decentralized decisio...

We study a coordination contract for a supplier-retailer channel producing and selling a fashionable product exhibiting a stochastic price-dependent demand. The product’s selling season is short, and the supply chain faces great demand uncertainty. We consider a scenario where the supplier reserves production capacity for the retailer in advance, and permits the retailer to place an order not e...

Component contract, as an interface specification, is a good idea for improving software quality. This paper describes the technique of dynamically attaching behavioral contracts a posteriori to binary component with no explicit contracts discipline, and presents a model based on the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) to organize component contracts in the form of metadata and to perform effi...

Contract farming refers is to carry out the agreement between buyer and farmer reduce risk for both parties. Red chili rotten, damaged, has a large shrinkage, causing production, quality price risks. The study provide an empirical analysis of impact contract on cultivation postharvest practice. field survey was conducted in Magelang District as one production centers red chillies West Java. Dat...

In the circumstance that unexpected events lead to information asymmetry of sales costs, supplier risk aversion and stochastic price, this paper discusses internal law using an emergency quantity discount contract coordinate supply chain. First, Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) model under condition symmetry is constructed. addition, extended game CVaR asymmetric costs solved. After that, simul...

In this paper, a dominant firm and competitive fringe supply substitute goods to a retailer who has private information about demand. We show that it is profitable for the dominant firm to condition payment on how much the retailer buys from the fringe (market-share contracts). The dominant firm thereby creates countervailing incentives for the retailer and, in some cases, is able to obtain the...

How do consumers adjust their spending when their budget changes? A common view is that the allocation of one’s current budget should not depend on previous budget allocations. Contrary to this, the authors find that when the budget contracts to a particular level, consumers select less variety (as measured by the number of different items with some of the budget allocated to them) than when th...
