An increasing number of companies want to improve product traceability for several reasons: to meet stricter government regulations about food and medical safety, to cope with ever-stronger consumer demands to know exactly what they are buying, and to improve and protect the company's brand value through more transparent business operations. Two aspects of traceability are technically important: (1)...
In the center of supply chain management initiatives are the series of applications that synchronize demand and supply, manage inventory, ensure service-level commitments, and provide greater visibility into the manufacturing operations. At the same time the concept of Virtual Organization (VO) challenges the way industrial production systems are planned and managed. The topic is analyzed in context...
The current work focuses on the electronic collaboration among companies for the efficient execution of the shiprepair supply chain. The shiprepair supply chain is a dynamic environment that consists of collaborating companies, each one is specialized in a certain set of manufacturing activities. All these activities are interrelated and that are extremely complex to manage since the highest portion...
We propose a new supply chain management (SCM) concept based on coupling point inventory planning. This concept has been both achieve quick response to order, the inventory and the shortage-ratio levels controlling, and the capacity constraints replenishment. The new SCM concept is organized to combine three solutions. The first solution is coupling point establishment for quick response to order...
An information management system concept with a web interface is proposed for integrating food recycling chain managements. The recycling problem is much discussed in various markets such as food, containers and packaging products, home appliances, construction materials, and automobiles. Although the word "recycling" is used over the different recycling field, the characteristic and the...
The class of discrete event systems (DES) which involve only synchronization phenomena can be represented by linear state equations in particular algebraic structures. The (max,+) algebra is a dioid over which, these systems can have a linear state representation with special sum and product operations. The study of the DES over this (max,+) algebra is usually made through the corresponding timed...
