CRIBA is a project that aims at industrializing thermal renovation processes of buildings. It consists in designing and configuring make-to-order insulated panels that will be installed on the external facade of the buildings to meet the thermal renovation objectives. Our study provides an optimization model that comprehensively plans supply chain network, which delivers insulated panels to the...

Military clothing retailers employ a traditional Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) strategy, producing infrequent, large orders that cause serious production scheduling and delivery problems for manufacturers, producing what is sometimes called the bullwhip effect. These problems delay manufacturer response and cause stock outages at the retailer. This paper describes a decision support system that...

Cost effective supply chain management under various market, logistics and production uncertainties is a critical issue for companies in the chemical process industry. Uncertainties in the supply chain usually increase the variance of profits (or costs) to the company, increasing the likelihood of decreased profit. Demand uncertainty, in particular, is an important factor to be considered in th...

The financial data supply chain is vital to the economy, especially for banks. It affects their customer service level, therefore, it crucial manage scheduling of elevate efficiency banking sectors’ performance. primary tool used in batch processing which requires efficient scheduling. This work investigates problem tasks with non-identical sizes and different priorities on a set parallel proce...

Hydrogen is becoming an increasingly appealing energy carrier, as the costs of renewable generation and water electrolysis continue to decline. Developing scalable modeling decision tools for H 2 supply chain that fully capture flexibility various resources essential understanding overall cost-c...

Globalization has led to a significant effect on today’s manufacturing sector. Manufacturers need find new and innovative ways increase efficiency reduce waste in the supply chain. Lean/six sigma tools can help companies production stay competition. Manufacturing smaller batches keep chain lean customizable. This leads frequent changeovers downtime. A changeover is usually required when single ...

Simulation provides an alternative method for detailed analysis of the complex real world systems such as the supply chain. Given that a simulation model is well-suited for evaluating dynamic decision rules under ‘what-if ‘ scenarios, a few attempts have been made to develop simulation models to improve supply chain performances. The modelling of supply chains dynamics adopted to simulation app...
