With the trend of globalization, supply chains are increasingly extended and uncertainties associated with material flow along the supply chain have become a major challenge in the planning process. In this study, we examine the effect of supply uncertainty on dynamically managing a two-stage supply chain under both centralized and decentralized controls. Specifically, the downstream faces dema...

We address the value of information (VOI) sharing in the context of a two–echelon, serial supply chain with one retailer and one supplier that provides a single perishable product to consumers. We evaluate information sharing under two supply chain structures where the retailer shares it inventory level and replenishment policy with the supplier. In the first structure, referred to as Decentral...

Manufacturing managers face increasing pressure to reduce inventories across the supply chain. However, in complex supply chains, it is not always obviouswhere to hold safety stock to minimize inventory costs and provide a high level of service to the final customer. In this paper we develop a framework for modeling strategic safety stock in a supply chain that is subject to demand or forecast ...

We address the value of information (VOI) and value of centralized control (VCC) in the context of a two–echelon, serial supply chain with one retailer and one supplier that provides a single perishable product to consumers. Our analysis is relevant for managing slow moving perishable products with fixed lot sizes and expiration dates of a week or less. We evaluate two supply chain structures. ...

the purpose of this research is to identify factors and components that affect a trust-based cooperation in the automobile supply chain and their impact on the performance of the supply chain companies. this paper includes 2 parts. in the first part, by studying the research history and literature and interviewing academic and industrial scholars and experts, four hidden variables of trust-base...

Supply Chains have been more and suffering from unexpected industrial, natural events, or epidemics that might disrupt the normal flow of materials, information, money. The recent pandemic triggered by outbreak new COVID-19 has pointed out increasing vulnerability supply chain networks, prompting companies (and governments) to implement specific policies actions control reduce spread disease ac...

Supply chain management (SCM) is considered at the forefront of many organizations in delivery their products. Various optimization methods are applied SCM to improve efficiency process. In this research, projected stochastic gradient (PSG) method was proposed increase analysis. The key objective an efficient supply find best flow patterns for products order select suppliers different customers...
