In order to study the effect of the internet of things (IOT) on the architecture of logistics service supply chain (LSSC), this paper summarizes the application of IOT in related fields on the basis of the theories of IOT, analyzes the effect of IOT on logistics/service flow, information flow and fund flow in LSSC and the effect on the structure of LSSC, builds the architecture of LSSC based on...

Improved Profitability and Competition in Two Level Supply Chain by Non-Cooperative Games

This article by modeling a non-cooperative dynamic game tries to improve profitability and competition. This paper has considered how the manufacturer interacts with multiple competitor distributors. Each distributor also determines the optimal distribution price and inventory replenishment policies to maximize their profits. The issue form a non-cooperative dynamic game. Distributors formulate...

Considering chain to chain competition in forward and reverse logistics of a dynamic and integrated supply chain network design problem

In this paper, a bi-objective model is presented for dynamic and integrated network design of a new entrant competitive closed-loop supply chain. To consider dynamism and integration in the network design problem, multiple long-term periods are regarded during planning horizon, so that each long-term period includes several short-term periods. Furthermore, a chain to chain competition between t...
