Models for multi-plant coordination

چکیده
This paper addresses coordination of production planning among multiple plants in a vertically integrated firm. Currently there is no unified body of literature that deals with this issue. We identify important issues that managers and researchers must address so that production and inventory decisions can be determined for all plants in a manner optimal for the organization as a whole.

A BI-LEVEL LINEAR MULTI-OBJECTIVE DECISION MAKING MODEL WITH INTERVAL COEFFICIENTS FOR SUPPLY CHAIN COORDINATION
Bi-level programming, a tool for modeling decentralized decisions, consists of the objective(s) of the leader at its first level and that is of the follower at the second level. Three level programming results when second level is itself a bi-level programming. By extending this idea it is possible to define multi-level programs with any number of levels. Supply chain planning problems are co...
متن کاملModel-based Approach for Multi-sensor Fault Identification in Power Plant Gas Turbines
In this paper, the multi-sensor fault diagnosis in the exhaust temperature sensors of a V94.2 heavy duty gas turbine is presented. A Laguerre network-based fuzzy modeling approach is presented to predict the output temperature of the gas turbine for sensor fault diagnosis. Due to the nonlinear dynamics of the gas turbine, in these models the Laguerre filter parts are related to the linear d...
متن کاملComparison and Supply Chain Optimization for Vendor-Buyer Coordination System
Here, we consider single vendor-buyer model with multi-product and multi-customer and multi-facility location-production-distribution problem. It is assumed that the players of the supply chain are coordinated by sharing information. Vendor manufactures produce different products at different plants with limited capacities and then distribute the products to the consumers according to determini...
متن کاملComparison and evaluation of three methods of multi attribute decision making methods in choosing the best plant species for environmental management (Case study: Chah Jam Erg)
Today, environmental crisis and loss of natural resources are the principle causes of the creation of environmental management systems. The optimal management of natural resources requires the assessment and classification of ecological and environmental potentials. Using this method, the abilities and restrictions of resources can be recognized, and their future trends can be predicted. Nebka ...
