Modelling and analysis of semiconductor supply chains

Modeling and Analysis of Semiconductor Supply Chains

In February 2016 the Dagstuhl Seminar 16062 explored the needs of the semiconductor industry for better planning and scheduling approaches at the supply chain level and the requirements for information systems to support the approaches. The seminar participants also spent time identifying the core elements of a conceptual reference model for planning and control of semiconductor manufacturing s...

Modeling and Analysis of Semiconductor Supply Chains (Dagstuhl Seminar 16062)

Bottleneck Based Modeling of Semiconductor Supply Chains

Supply chain planning is critical in semiconductor manufacturing with its expensive production facilities, expensive inventory and usually expensive logistics. Simulation provides a powerful technique to study supply chain dynamics and evaluate options for supply chain planning and control. However, detailed simulation models of semiconductor supply chain can be computationally quite intensive....

Modelling the dynamics of supply chains

It is estimated that, on average, 60-70% of the costs of manufactured goods come from raw materials and purchased components Har92]. As industry moves toward an increasingly more global market economy in which companies focus more on the production of core high-value-adding components, this gure can only increase. This in turn will further increase the interdependence between manufacturers and ...

Dynamic Modelling of Strategic Supply Chains

The high level of complexity connected with the modelling of supplier networks often diminishes the practical impact of supply chain management approaches. Furthermore, many of those approaches primarily focus on operative tasks. This paper proposes a concept for the dynamic modelling of supply chains. In addition, the business domain of strategic supply chain management is introduced, extendin...
