Current web service technologies lack semantic descriptions of functionality and requirements; semantic markup of web services would allow interoperability and dynamic discovery of services. The Web Service Modelling Ontology (WSMO) provides a framework for semantically describing web services, ontologies, goals and mediators. WSMX is an execution environment for WSMO allowing discovery, mediat...

this paper has revised the combined model of chan & qi with supply chain operations reference (scor) .this combined model with hierarchical structure, has three levels and seven criteria that some criteria are quantitative (cost, use of source) and others of them are qualitative (quality, flexibility, tangible, validity and innovation). in order to improvement of this model, this paper has comb...

    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 funct...

a housing supply function for private sector has been estimated for the period of 1985-1999. the model was specified, using lucas supply theory and by including internal adjustment costs in producer's decision f or production or inv estment. the distin ctive feature of this model is the utilization. of investment role in housing sector similar to other factors in production function. the r...

This paper presents a robust supply chain network design considering capacity, supply and delivery distance limits under uncertain demand. It aims to form a systematic solution including facility location and capacity design, supply plan, production plan and delivery plan. The uncertainty of demand is described by means of scenario approach. Following a multiple criteria evaluation, the optimal...

Due to the global expansion of Company A's supply chain network, it is becoming more vulnerable to many disruptions. These disruptions often incur additional costs; and require time to respond to and recover from these disruptions. The base paper supply chain was identified as the most vulnerable area of the Company A Jurong and South & Southeast Asia Cluster supply chain; and a multi-stage sup...

Improvement in supply chain performance is one of the major issues in the current world. Lack of coordination in the supply chain is the main drawback of supply chain that many researchers have proposed different methodologies to overcome it. VMI (Vendor-managed inventory) is one of these methodologies that implementing it has some obstacles. This paper proposes new model that is agent-managed ...
