A Supply Chain (SC) is a collection of independent companies possessing complementary skills and integrated with transportation and storage systems. This paper deals with the issues of modeling and managing the SCs at the operational level, in order to study the performance measures of the systems controlled by different management strategies. The system is modeled as a timed discrete event dyn...

Supply Chain (SC) design problems are often characterized with uncertainty related to the decisionmaking parameters. The Stochastic Goal Programming (SGP) was one of the aggregating procedures proposed to solve the SC problems. However, the SGP does not integrate explicitly the Decision-Maker’s preferences. The aim of this paper is to utilize the Chance Constrained Programming and the Satisfact...

It has been a challenging task to manage perishable food supply chains because of the perishable product’s short lifetime, the possible spoilage of the product due to its deterioration nature, and the retail demand uncertainty. All of these factors can lead to a significant amount of shortage of food items and a substantial retail loss. The recent development of tracing and tracking technologie...

The main goal of the paper is a consideration of cost efficiency evaluation models related to some supply chain when dealing with imprecise data. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) method is a non-parametric mathematical programming approach to assess the performance. This method is proposed for deterministic data and it can be generalized to inaccurate data, while considering real world applicati...

in this paper, the competition between two supply chains and their elements is studied. each chain consisted of a manufacturer and a distributor and the two chains compete in a market with single type of customer sensitive to price and delivery time. therefore, this is a two-supply chain game and during the competition between two supply chains, elements of each supply chain (manufacturer and/o...

Managing income is a considerable dimension in supply chain management in current economic atmosphere. Real world situation makes it inevitable not to design or redesign supply chain. Redesign will take place as costs increase or new services for customers’ new demands should be provided. Pricing is an important fragment of Supply chain due to two reasons: first, represents revenue based ...

  Over the years we have witnessed the growing importance of supply chain operations and supply chain management (SCM), as supply chains play a major role in every step of the product life cycle. Therefore, this paper will DEA-based performance evaluation approaches for overall supply chain can be categorized. Future perspectives and challenges are discussed

Supply chain management of perishable products has to use some mechanisms control the product waste amount. Dynamic pricing and cooperation members are which mitigate This paper studies dynamic problem a supply with one manufacturer, retailer, two periods: production selling periods. The considers price markdown policy manage total quality-dependent stochastic demand: dividing period into diffe...
