A Proposal on Agent-based Production Planning in Integrated Supply Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose models that focus on the improvement of flexibility in manufacturing supply networks by enabling a tighter information coupling between the various planning levels without tampering with the autonomy of enterprises which are geographically distributed. The problem is approached from the perspective of social network planning using a community of agents. These agents have unique properties which they exhibit at different planning levels. Characterization of agents in the models is discussed.

A multi-objective evolutionary approach for integrated production-distribution planning problem in a supply chain network
Integrated production-distribution planning (PDP) is one of the most important approaches in supply chain networks. We consider a supply chain network (SCN) to consist of multi suppliers, plants, distribution centers (DCs), and retailers. A bi-objective mixed integer linear programming model for integrating production-distribution designed here aim to simultaneously minimize total net costs in ...

In this study, a bi-objective model for integrated planning of production-distribution in a multi-level supply chain network with multiple product types and multi time periods is presented. The supply chain network including manufacturers, distribution centers, retailers and final customers is proposed. The proposed model minimizes the total supply chain costs and transforming time of products ...
