Blockchain and distributed ledger technology (BC/DLT) provides databases with decentralized governance, tamper-proof recording, high availability non-copyable digital assets, which have made it a natural technological basis for supply chain management. In this paper, we introduce REALISTIC, novel event-based modeling framework networks (SCNs) that includes production processes . It extends McCa...

We study a novel economic network (supply chain) comprised of wire transfers (electronic payment transactions) among the universe firms in Brazil (6.2 million firms). construct directed and weighted which vertices represent cities edges connote pairwise dependence between cities. Cities (vertices) collection all that location, links denote intercity transfers. find high degree integration trade...

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 functions...

. In today’s competitive business environment, supply chain performance is one of the most critical issues in various industries. Over, the past two decades, several frameworks and systems have been developed to meet this need. Prior to the popularization of the term supply chain to describe the network of suppliers, manufacturers, transporters, warehouses, there are models which used the term ...

Spurred by intensifying competition in global markets, most companies have been increasingly implementing supply chain management (SCM) and information systems (IS) practices. As well, globalization policies have created a more intensive competition amongst manufacturers; in additional the priority of supply over demand, market competition and importance of some factor such as quality, accounta...

The retail industry plays an important role in the economic development of the world. The Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) solution can coordinate the business process between the retailers and manufacturers in the retail supply chain and got its applications in many world-renowned retailers around the world. In this paper, CPFR coordination process and its applicati...

In this work, a framework to model the Supply Chain (SC) Collaborative Planning (CP) process is proposed. The main contributions of this framework concern 1) the presentation of the decision view, the most important one due to the characteristics of the process, jointly within the physical, organisation and information views, and 2) the simultaneous consideration of the spatial and temporal int...

In this paper, we review decision support models for the design of global supply chains, and assess the fit between the research literature in this area and the practical issues of global supply chain design. The classification scheme for this review is based on ongoing and emerging issues in global supply chain management and includes review dimensions for (1) decisions addressed in the model,...

Increasing competition from traditional and emerging channels has placed new emphasis on rapid innovation and continuous differentiation in every aspect of supply chain, from earliest production stage to the final distribution steps. To bridge the gap between brilliant ideas and successful business initiatives, leading companies implement engineering simulation particularly in logistics and sup...
