Information technology is vital to supply chain management in the areas of integration and information sharing. Demand-Driven is a characteristic in Lean and Agile supply chains. Based on recent developments, we suggest that there is a new demand-driven strategy emerging for supp
Improved Bounds for Mixing Rates of Markov Chains and Multicommodity Ow
The paper is concerned with tools for the quantitative analysis of nite Markov chains whose states are combinatorial structures. Chains of this kind have algorithmic applications in many areas, including random sampling, approximate counting, statistical physics and combinatorial

Can Inter-firm Networks Alleviate Supply Chain Risks within Global Food Supply Chains?
The food supply chain is truly a global supply chain wherein finished products and raw materials are transported across continents to fulfil requirements of consumers. The networks of supply encompass different languages, cultural systems, regulations etc. The entire farmer to en
Determining chain digitisation maturity: a survey among Dutch CIOs
Interorganisational or chain information systems have become a frequent subject of scientific research, but not often an empirical perspective on these systems is taken. In this study we develop a model for measuring the chain digitisation maturity of organisations (as a proxy fo
Enhancing Visibility in International Supply Chains: The Data Pipeline Concept
With increasing global trade and growing emphasis on security, enhanced information sharing between actors in global supply chains is required. Currently, the data about cargo available in the supply chain does not provide a timely and accurate description of the goods. To solve
A Framework for Performance Measurement System of Supply Chain Management
Supply Chain Management (SCM) has gained significance as one of the 21st century manufacturing paradigms for improving organizational competitiveness. Supply chain ensures improved efficiency and effectiveness of not only product transfer, but also information sharing between the
Two Kinds of Economy, Two Kinds of Self—Toward More Manageable, Hence More Sustainable and Just Supply Chains
Contemporary systems of production, distribution, and retail provide many end-consumers, although certainly not all, with an unprecedentedly wide choice of cheap, high quality goods and services. Yet this bounty comes at ever higher, ultimately unsustainable environmental and soc
Complete amino acid sequence of the 6 heavy chain of human immunoglobulin D ( antibody structure / diversity segment / joining region / lymphocyte receptor )
We have determined the amino acid sequence of the variable (V) region of the 8 heavy (H) chain of human IgD isolated from the plasma ofmyeloma patient WAH. This V region is unusual in its amino end group (arginine) and in its length (129 residues). The length is due to 10 inserti
How To Achieve Cost Savings From Supply Chain Management: Techniques That Work
This paper identifies and demonstrates proven techniques that achieve real cost savings from supply chain management, and provides information on how to apply these techniques in various business situations. Most supply chain professionals have knowledge of supply chain managemen
