Hierarchical-Game Based Multi-Attribute Negotiation of Supply Chain Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper focuses on hierarchical-game based multi-attribute negotiation between multiple MAs (Manufacture Agents) and multiple MSAs (Material Supplier Agents) of SCN (Supply Chain Network). The attributes of the wholesale price of the product, the quantity of the order and the lead time of the order are negotiated simultaneously. A modified hierarchical-game based negotiation protocol is proposed based on the previous work. It is a changeable hierarchical game. It is a two-layer game when all the orders are in abilities of all the MSAs. However, it is a three-layer game when there are some orders out of abilities of some MSAs. The second layer game is not necessary, it is triggered to find coalitions only if the order is out of ability of MSA. The third layer game is used to determine the final quotation of the negotiation. Then, the first layer game is aimed to find the optimal allocation scheme to maximize the total profit of SCN based on the results of the second and the third layer games. Numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed protocol.

Game Theory Based Multi-attribute Negotiation between MA and MSAs
This paper focuses on the multi-attribute negotiation between Manufacture Agent (MA) and Material Supplier Agent (MSA) of supply chain network (SCN). A modified two-stage negotiation protocol is proposed based on the two-stage negotiation protocol proposed in the previous work. The negotiation between MA and MSAs, where the quantity of the order of MA depends on the demand of CA, are discussed ...
متن کاملA decentralized multi-level leader-follower game for network design of a competitive supply chain
This paper develops a decentralized leader-follower game for network design of a competitive supply chain problem in which a new chain as the leader enters a market with one existing supply chain as a follower. Both chains produce an identical product, customer demand is inelastic and customer utility function is based on Huff gravity-based model. The leader wants to shape his network and set a...
متن کاملConsidering 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...

There are many problems in construction process, such as fragmentation, budget overrun, time overrun and high waste, most of which are supply chain problems and often caused by the lack of coordination and information sharing across organizations in the supply chains. Supply chain coordination (SCC) is a critical success factor for the application of supply chain management to effectively impro...
متن کاملA Multi-agent Based Negotiation for Supply Chain Network Using Game Theory
This paper focuses on the single-issue negotiation between Manufacture Agent (MA) and Material Supplier Agent (MSA) of the supply chain. MSA resorts to find partners to cooperate when it cannot finish the order independently. A two stage negotiation protocol is proposed. The cooperative game is combined with MA-Stackelberg game to resolve the negotiation problem. It is used to establish the coa...
