there are many benefits for coordination of multiple suppliers when single supplier cannot satisfy buyer demands.  in addition, buyer needs to purchase multiple items in a real supply chain. so, a model that satisfies these requests has many advantages. we extend the existing approaches in the literature that assume all suppliers need to be put on a common replenishment cycle and each supplier ...

a mathematical modelling for more-winding single-phase transformer is presented. the incidence matrix-which gives the informations about the connection of the ends of the windings between the nodes-is multiplied leftside and rightside with the inverse of the inductance matrix of the more winding transformer. the result is a matrix which gives the relationship between nodes potentials and nodes ...

In this paper we present our ideas to apply constraint satisfaction on business processes. We propose a multi-level constraint satisfaction approach to handle different levels of abstraction in business process modelling.

A complex system is made up of many components with many interactions. So the design of systems such as simulation systems, cooperative systems or assistance systems includes a very accurate modelling of interactional and communicational levels. The agent-based approach provides an adapted abstraction level for this problem. After having studied the organizational context and communicative capa...

Social responsibility is a key factor that could result in success and achieving great benefits for supply chains. Responsiveness and reliability are important social responsibility measures for consumers and all stakeholders that strategists and company managers should be concerned about them in long-term planning horizon. Although, presence of uncertainties as an intrinsic part of supply chai...
