This study investigates the role personal connections play in a crucial element of supply chain—supplier selection. We find that likelihood potential supplier (hereafter, vendor) is selected to be an actual supplier) increases when between executives vendor and customer exist. The magnitude effect varies predictably across management ranks positions stronger information asymmetries are high. Co...

In many vendor-manufacturer partnerships, it is quite typical for the vendor to hold consignment stock on behalf of the manufacturer, usually through an ’in-plant’ from the vendor organization who is resident at the manufacturer’s premises. However, empirical evidence suggests that where the buyer is dominant, suppliers are often forced to carry inventory either as part of the contract or to qu...

Vendor selection of an autobot system is not a simple process as it typically involves multiple criteria, and needs human judgement. Therefore, there requirement to have better for vendor due ambiguity vagueness that exist in dealing with criteria decision making (MCDM) problems. In this study, are two main objectives which identify the important determine most preferable based on selected usin...

We present a framework for algorithm selection, code generation and optimization for the Fast Fourier Transform. The framework consists of two main parts – the DFT Code Generator (FftGen) and the Execution Scheduler (FftPlanner). The library generator outputs a highly optimized set of small to modest size DFT codelets written in ‘C’. The FftPlanner searches an exponential space of possible algo...

In this paper, we present a new framework for knowledge-based decision support systems for government vendor selection and bidding. The system integrates a database, rule base and model base as a tool for managers in the decision-making problems via the Internet. The procurement procedures for and architecture of the government vendor selection and bidding in Taiwan are discussed in detail. Par...

This decision case describes the process of requirements definition and selection of a new student administration MIS to replace the existing legacy system. It provides a detailed account of the initiation of the project and how decisions have evolved. The case focuses on the interests and roles of internal stakeholders and the effect of unexpected external events. Finally, the case describes t...
