In this paper, the strategic planning of a supply chain under a static chain-to-chain competition on the plane is addressed. It is assumed that each retailer has a coverage area called the radius of influence. The demand of each demand zone is divided equally between the retailers which can cover that market. However, the demand of distant customers who are not in the retailers’ radius of influ...

Supply chain management (SCM) is one of the most important of the areas that have recently generated a great deal of interest in both industry and academia. SCM is considered an integrating philosophy to manage the total flows of materials, products and information from suppliers to the ultimate customers. The changing conditions of competition, for organizations to become more responsive and a...

The manufacturing organizations today are having a competition of supply chain versus supply chain. Existing research work fails to relate human metrics with supply chain performance. The authors intend to empirically assess the effects of human metrics on supply chain performance in the context of Indian manufacturing organizations. A rigorous literature review has identified 12 variables. The...

the present article deals with the inter specific competition and intra-specific competition among predator populations of a prey-dependent three component food chain model consisting of two competitive predator sharing one prey species as their food. the behaviour of the system near the biologically feasible equilibria is thoroughly analyzed. boundedness and dissipativeness of the system are e...

In the era of economic globalization, the competition of product in the market does not depend on a certain enterprise. The traditional competition among different enterprises has transitioned to the competition among different supply chains. In order to win in the global competition, enterprises tend to implement supply chain process reengineering to enhance the coordination among all supply c...

The food chain refers to a natural system by which energy is transmitted from one organism to another. In fact, a food chain consists of producers, consumers and decomposition. Presence of complex food web increase the stability of the ecosystem. Classical food chain theory arises from Lotka-Volterra model. In the present paper, the dynamics behavior of three level food chain is studied. A syst...
